What do drywall repair services include?

Drywall repair services include everything you need to fix damages to your wall and ceiling. Damages include dents, cracks or holes on your drywall. Experts found on our platform can perform the task using industry best practices and adhere to regular safety standards. Drywall repair services include but are not limited to:

Site assessment

Proper assessment and inspection are essential before undertaking any repair job. Whether you need a repair on cracked drywalls or patching up your drywall ceiling, Taskers can assess the damage and what caused it so that they can take this into account during the drywall repair process.  Taskers may even take measurements if needed to determine how much material they need to complete the job. If you’re not sure about the materials you need, feel free to consult your Tasker. Ask if they can source the materials for you and discuss other important points in detail before accepting an offer.

Site preparation

Once you have ironed out the details with your Tasker and completed the site assessment, next on the agenda is site preparation. Taskers may use protective material to cover the worksite and anything nearby to reduce the mess. This makes things easier for the clean-up crew especially from any debris from drywall crack repairs. For any repairs that are caused by leaking water pipes, heating or electrical systems and the like, consider hiring a general contractor to resolve the problem and prevent any further damage in the future.

Wall and ceiling repairs

Once the work site is ready, Taskers can begin the process of patching up, filling and smoothing out the holes and cracks on your drywall. Since drywall is prone to damage, sometimes not even your ceiling is safe. Patching up any damage to your drywall ceiling should pose no difficulty for your Tasker. And after getting drywall ceiling repair near you, consider hiring someone to clean your ceiling for a healthier, aesthetically pleasing space.

Depending on the damage and initial assessment, Taskers may even repair or replace sections of drywall and finish them to match your existing walls. If you need some additional wall painting done, don’t hesitate to post another task and find a specialist on our platform.

Overall, though drywall is prone to damage, it is still an affordable, sturdy material that is ideal for building homes. You can rely on experts on Airtasker for all your drywall repair needs.

Drywall hallway and then install panels

$900

Parkville VIC, Australia

12th May 2024

Tape plastic masking around the opening and along the floor. Cut some framing members to fit the opening and stick two rows of thick expanding foam weather stripping along the face of the boards that will be pressed up against the opening and the floor. Assemble this rectangular frame into the opening with the weather stripping pressed up against the opening and the floor, and minimally screw the top and sides in place. This will only leave two or three small screw holes in the the top and sides to patch when you take it out, and the plastic layer will prevent the weather stripping from blocking (sticking to the paint). Complete the rest of framing on 16" centers like normal, cut them carefully so you can press then in place and put press the frame against the floor, which will not have any screws in it. Toenail the studs into place, careful with fastener length and placement so as not to drive completely through the framing members on the perimeter. Cover both sides in drywall, and stick tear away bead around the entire perimeter on both sides. Tape, mud, prime and paint both sides and then remove the tear away strip on the tear away bead. This will leave a nice straight clean edge all the way around, and then carefully trim away the excess plastic masking. Looking for a very sold, and clean installation that is completely reversible as I plan to demolish it in 2-3 years. have these wall bed frame panels that then need to be hang up for both sides.Thanks 🙏
