Frequently asked questions about Drywall Repair in Harlem

Prices for drywall repair begin at $50 per hour in Harlem. Your overall project cost will vary based on the size of the hole in your wall and how many holes are being patched and painted.

It depends on the size of the job. A small hole can take under an hour, while larger damage can take hours. It also depends on the type of incident that caused the damage, like if there was a leak causing the damage that can take longer since it will need to be dried out before fixing the drywall. Ask your Tasker to get an estimate.

Yes, with the right tools and know-how you can repair drywall yourself! However, if you're not comfortable tackling this job solo or simply don't want to purchase tools for a one-time repair, book a qualified drywall repair Tasker in Harlem instead.

To repair a small hole in drywall, first clean the area around the hole, then apply a small amount of drywall compound, and smooth it out with a putty knife. For larger holes, you may need a drywall patch or mesh tape. Once the repair is dry, you can sand the area and paint it over to match the rest of the wall.

  • Mia M.Aleksandr installed my shelves and lamp - he was clear, prepared, detail oriented - willing to improvise and find solutions. I will be hiring him again to add more shelves to my shoe closet - very soon. He is an engineer working as a handyman - which means he is over qualified for these jobs!Drywall Repair
  • India H.Aleksandr was on time and did a really great job spackling and painting my walls. He also took down my TV and mount. He was thorough and had a great attention to detail. I would hire him again! Thank you Aleksandr!Drywall Repair
  • Bianca P.Did a great job doing a tedious task. He was patient and was able to re-do the install due to the ceiling not being leveled properly. He even went the extra mile by removing a window stopper that wasn't orginally in the planned scope of work. Drywall Repair

What is drywall?

Drywall is a building material used for interior walls and ceilings. It's made out of gypsum, which is naturally fire-resistant, and serves as a way to reduce sound between rooms. Insulating drywall helps to regular temperature inside a home and is designed to withstand everyday wear and tear. However, that doesn't mean damage still can't happen.

How does drywall get damaged?

  • Small dents from impact

  • Removing nail heads, wall anchors, and screws

  • Leaks

  • Pets playing

  • Pests

  • Tile removal

  • HVAC, electrical, or plumbing repairs
