A Surfside Beach homeowner had several holes in an upstairs bedroom and hallway after removing old wall-mounted fixtures and a damaged corner.

We cut each hole back to solid board, installed backing and new drywall, taped and coated the seams, and matched the orange-peel texture before priming and painting.

The challenge on this job

The hallway walls were two stories tall at the stair, and the existing texture was a light, uneven orange peel. We used a ladder plank for safe access and tested texture on a scrap until it matched.

  • Damaged drywall cut back and replaced
  • Seams taped with three coats
  • Orange-peel texture matched
  • Primed and painted to the corners

The result

The patches blend into the existing walls; once painted, the repaired areas are hard to find even in raking light. Need something similar? Read more about our drywall & plaster repair or request a free estimate.
