Our Work — Real Drywall Repairs, Before & After

Every photo on this page is a real DRR job — no stock photos, no borrowed pictures. Each job shows the before photo first, then the finished work.

More of our work is on the videos page and on our Facebook page.

A note on watermarks: some of Daniel's older job photos carry the red DRR watermark he stamped on them years ago. They're the genuine photos from those jobs, so we run them as he took them.

Living Room Ceiling & Wall — North Ocala

Before: a hole cut into a water-stained living room ceiling in North Ocala
Before
After: the same ceiling repaired and texture matched
After

Knockdown texture. The work area was sealed with ZipWall poles, hidden AC and electrical lines were protected with nail plates, and the patch was textured to blend into the original ceiling.

Garage Ceiling — Gainesville

Before: a fallen section of garage ceiling in Gainesville
Before
After: new moisture-resistant board installed in the Gainesville garage
After

A section had already fallen and eight more feet were sagging. The sound ceiling was saved; the failed section was replaced with 5/8-inch moisture-resistant board — and a buried wire found mid-job was repaired at DRR's cost.

Popcorn Ceiling — Old Town Mobile Home

Before: a hole punched through a popcorn ceiling in an Old Town mobile home
Before
After: the popcorn ceiling patched and re-textured to match
After

A localized popcorn failure in a pre-manufactured home — tented off, protected, patched, and re-textured to blend with the original ceiling.

Farmhouse Wall — Ocala

Before: an electrical cut-out in a farmhouse wall in Ocala
Before
After: the wall patched, textured hawk-and-trowel, and blended
After

An electrical cut-out in a third-generation farmhouse wall: texture ground back, shallow lines protected with a nail plate, Cali patch set, hawk-and-trowel finish rebuilt by hand.

Bedroom Wall — Ocala Listing

Before: a bedroom wall opened up for an access repair in Ocala
Before
After: the bedroom wall finished with matched knockdown texture
After

An access hole in a home about to be listed, plus a failed paper seam found along the way — both fixed and knockdown-matched so buyers would never know.

Tape Failure — Ceiling Seam

Before: failed, peeling drywall tape along a ceiling seam
Before
After: the seam re-taped, finished, and blended smooth
After

Failed, peeling tape along a ceiling seam: old tape out, new tape in, mudded, wet-sanded, and blended until the seam no longer showed.
