Drywall Repair Los Angeles Property Owners Rely On
Pro Painting Co. repairs common drywall problems throughout Los Angeles, including holes, cracks, dents, and damaged sections on walls and ceilings. Many of these issues are the same problems that surface during preparation before painting, from a small puncture behind a door to an area where a previous patch didn't hold up. We repair the damage first, then prepare the surface for a clean, paint-ready finish as part of our broader painting services.
Common Drywall Repairs
Drywall damage shows up in a range of ways, from small nail holes to larger sections that need to be cut out and replaced. We look at the type and extent of the damage before recommending a repair approach.
- Drywall Holes & Patches
- Cracks & Surface Damage
- Damaged Wall Sections
- Ceiling Drywall Repair
- Preparation Before Painting
- Corrections to Previous Repairs
Not every type of drywall damage is repaired the same way, so we assess each area individually before starting work.
Plaster Repair
Plaster is a different material than drywall, applied in wet layers over a base coat rather than installed as a panel. Many older Los Angeles homes have original plaster walls and ceilings, and plaster damage often calls for a different repair approach than drywall.
- Cracks & Hairline Fractures
- Chips & Surface Damage
- Deteriorated Areas
- Wall Imperfections
- Ceiling Imperfections
- Preparation Before Repainting
Because drywall and plaster behave differently, we match the repair method to the material rather than treating every wall the same way.
Ceiling Repair
Ceilings can develop cracks, holes, damaged drywall or plaster, and areas from previous patchwork. We repair this type of surface damage as part of preparing a ceiling for paint.
- Ceiling Cracks
- Holes & Damaged Sections
- Previous Patch Areas
- Drywall Ceilings
- Plaster Ceilings
- Surface Imperfections
If a ceiling is showing signs of an active leak, ongoing moisture, or another underlying issue, that cause should be addressed before we finish the surface — cosmetic repair alone won't resolve a problem that's still active.
Drywall Repair Before Painting
A quality paint finish depends on what's underneath it. Holes, cracks, and uneven patches can still show through paint if they aren't properly repaired and smoothed first.
- Repairing Damaged Areas
- Patching & Smoothing
- Preparing Repaired Sections
- Matching Surrounding Texture
- Priming Where Needed
- Ready-to-Paint Surfaces
This is where our repair work connects directly to our residential and commercial painting services — we repair the surface, prepare it properly, and paint it as part of the same project.
Our Drywall & Plaster Repair Process
1. Inspect the Damage
We start by looking at the damaged area to understand what type of repair is needed.
2. Identify the Appropriate Repair
Drywall and plaster are repaired differently, so we determine the right approach for the material and the damage.
3. Prepare the Area
We prepare the surrounding surface and protect nearby areas before starting the repair.
4. Repair & Finish the Surface
We repair the damaged area and finish it to blend with the surrounding wall or ceiling as closely as practical.
5. Prepare for Painting
Once the repair is complete, we prepare the surface for primer and paint.
6. Final Review
We review the repaired area with you before moving forward with painting.
Why Professional Surface Preparation Matters
Painting over damaged drywall or plaster without repairing it first often doesn't solve the problem. Cracks can stay visible, holes remain, and uneven patches can show through a fresh coat of paint.
- Cracks That Stay Visible
- Unrepaired Holes
- Patches That Show Through
- Uneven Texture
- Inconsistent Sheen
- Surface Imperfections
Repairing the surface properly before painting is part of how we approach every project — it's core to our painting work, not a separate add-on.

Drywall & Plaster Repair FAQ
What types of drywall damage can be repaired?
We repair common drywall problems such as holes, cracks, dents, and damaged sections on walls and ceilings, including areas from previous repairs that didn't hold up.
Do you repair plaster walls?
Yes. Plaster is a different material than drywall, and we repair plaster cracks, chips, and damaged areas using methods suited to that material rather than treating it the same as drywall.
Can you repair ceiling drywall or plaster?
Yes, we repair ceiling drywall and plaster damage such as cracks, holes, and areas from previous patches. If the damage is caused by an active leak or ongoing moisture, that source should be addressed before we finish the surface.
Should drywall or plaster be repaired before painting?
Yes. Unrepaired holes, cracks, and uneven patches can still show through a fresh coat of paint, so we repair and prepare the surface first for a cleaner finished result.
