Can I Repair Drywall Myself

Yes, homeowners can repair drywall themselves with the right tools and materials. Basic repairs like patching small holes or cracks are usually manageable. For larger repairs, it may be helpful to watch tutorial videos on you tube because its hard to learn drywall work by reading instructions. If you have questions about how to repair drywall we are always eager to help answer questions and if you decide its too much to handle we would be willing to finish the repair for you. The most important thing is not to put too much joint compound on you want the repair to be flat with the wall. A palm sander with 220 grit paper works good if you don't have a large area to sand. Just make sure to hook up a shop vac to collect dust or put up painters plastic because drywall is messy. Have fun, Sincerely Jason Lebeau MrWalls
