The Wall Looks Fine Until It Does Not

10+ Years of Experience. One Goal: Make You Love Your Home

Most drywall damage starts small. If the doorknob swings too hard, it will leave a dent. A nail hole made in the wall by a picture frame that was moved. A hairline crack that appeared at a ceiling joint and could be overlooked for some time. The crack grows longer, the patch that was applied years ago shows through the paint, and all of a sudden, the wall that you never noticed becomes the focal point of your attention when you enter the room.

Drywall damage is one of those issues that rarely resolves by itself, and it’s not always easy to keep it the same size for long. Cracks widen with seasonal movement. Openings that are not isolated allow water to enter the wall cavity. Faulty repairs will show through fresh paint, whichever color you use, so it will make the room look unfinished.

For more than 35 years, JK Evans Painting has been repairing drywall in Trumbull and Fairfield County, and we do it the same way, no matter the size of the repair: Fix it right the first time.

What Professional Drywall Repair Actually Covers

Damage to drywall can occur in a variety of ways, and each has a specific solution that can be employed to repair it properly. One of the biggest reasons that DIY patches and quick fixes done by professionals reveal themselves in a season is that they are treated the same way.

  • Nail and screw holes are the most common repairs we work on, and most often done incorrectly. Filling in a hole with spackling compound and painting it will create a repair that contracts as it dries and will show under raking light. We use the correct filler material for the hole size, applying the correct number of coats with proper drying time in between coats.
  • Larger holes caused by doorknob damage, furniture impacts or accidents must be backed up prior to patching the compound. The patch, if not supported appropriately, lacks a structural component to hold it up, and will eventually crack or sink, no matter how well it is done on the surface. The right backing material is installed, patching compound is applied in layers, sanding is done between layers, and edges are feathered to allow the repair to blend in with the wall without being noticed.
  • Cracks around joints, corners and along ceiling lines are virtually always due to movement in the structure, either through settlement or seasonal expansion and contraction or from previous repairs not properly taped. The cause of the crack is evaluated prior to deciding on the repair method; if the crack is due to a structural movement problem, then it must be treated differently from a crack that is caused by inadequate original taping.
  • Texture matching is one of the most important parts of drywall repair; either for success or failure, it is noticeable. Throughout Fairfield County, Connecticut, residences feature a collection of different wall textures, ranging from smooth plaster-style finishes to different spray and hand-applied textures. It can take practice to blend a repair so that no trace of it is visible in the surrounding texture. We carefully select the texture that complements the surrounding paintwork prior to painting.

Why Drywall Repair and Painting Go Together

One of the real benefits of having JK Evans Painting do drywall repair is that the same team will handle the painting as well. This matters more than it might seem.

A drywall repair that is finished by someone who does not paint and painted by someone who did not do the repair often produces a result where the two stages do not quite align. Texture is not consistent. The primer is skipped in areas where it is most needed. Under specific lighting conditions, the repaired area will reflect as a different color than the rest of the wall.

 

When repair and painting are done by the same experienced crew, every repair is completed with the painting finish in mind, from the beginning. Primer is used appropriately over repaired surfaces. The texture is matched to the Standard that is required for the paint finish. By treating the entire project as one, instead of two, the completed wall looks uniform from all angles and in all lighting situations.
