Maybe you were in the process of moving and you dinged your wall while moving furniture. A pipe could have busted, resorting to an emergency call from your plumber, or your home needs electrical repairs done.

Drywall Repairs & Maintenance Services
There are many common problems that can occur to the drywall at your Reston residence. Problems with drywall can be a complicated fix, so it is often best to consult with a professional painting contractor. If issues with drywall are not repaired, over time this may even result in expensive structural damage to the walls of your home.
There are many factors that can damage drywall, leaving behind holes, cracks, dents, and damp patches of all sizes. Some of the most common types of damaged drywall include:
Dents
It happens often. When someone knocks into the wall, it can create a dent. Usually, the dents can’t be repaired, but the panels need to be replaced. This is the only way to make the paint job look flawless.
Furniture Scuffs
Careless furniture handling can lead to pencil-like marks at best and holes in the drywall at worst.
Water Damage
Usually caused by leaking pipes, water damage weakens the structural integrity of the drywall and can even be a health hazard. Even if there are no visible water patches, moisture in the walls or ceilings can lead to other problems like cracks and loosened joint tape.
Cracks
If there are cracks in the drywall, it can either be plastered over so they are not visible or the entire drywall panel should be replaced.
Holes
Holes are usually caused by accidental forceful impact, like a door being slammed open or someone falling into the wall. Depending on what made the impact, you could be looking at anything from a small puncture to a worrying crater.
Nail Removals
Removing anything attached to the wall, whether it be tile, wallpaper, or even objects like mirrors, can lead to pieces of drywall coming off.

Priming & Painting New Drywall
After your drywall has been repaired or installed, it is essential that the surface is primed. Without a quality primer, your new paint will not be able to go on smoothly. This is due to the unique texture of drywall. Drywall priming involves sanding down, wiping, cleaning, and finally applying a drywall primer or sealer. Once this process has been completed, your walls will be ready for new paint.
CertaPro Painters® of Reston excels at interior painting services. We even offer each of our clients a free color consultation prior to beginning any painting service. This helps to ensure that you are completely satisfied with your final color selection. If your drywall needs repaired, replaced, or painted, contact our team today to get started on your next service.
