BRENTWOOD — From relocated electrical outlets to damage caused while moving furniture, there are many scenarios that require drywall repair. If you’re planning to patch an area of drywall in your home, you’ll need to make sure you’re using the correct procedure—otherwise, the results could be compromised.
One common mistake is failing to give drywall mud proper reinforcement. For example, when filling in the gap between an electrical outlet and the adjacent sheetrock, novices often think they only need to apply some drywall mud. However, it’s also important to apply some fiberglass tape in between coats of mud. This will give the repaired area an added measure of stability.
Another important step when repairing drywall is to blend the patched area with the rest of the wall. Simply take a wet sponge or rag and smooth out the edges of the patch. A lot of drywall companies neglect to do this final step, but it’s crucial to ensure a pleasing end result.
