# Impact Damage Drywall Repair

Impact damage repair addresses dents, punctures, and crushed corners caused by physical force. Beyond restoring the surface, the repair should consider whether the location warrants abuse resistant board or corner protection to prevent the same damage recurring.

Impact damage clusters in predictable places: behind doors, at corners in hallways, along corridors where carts and equipment travel, and in rental units at turnover. The repair itself is straightforward. The more useful conversation is whether the same spot is going to get hit again.

For a one time accident, a standard patch is the right answer. For a corridor in a commercial building or a corner that gets hit every few months, abuse resistant board or a metal corner bead upgrade solves the problem rather than scheduling the repair on repeat.

## Why this matters

- Damage rebuilt to the original plane and profile
- Corner bead replaced properly rather than filled over
- Abuse resistant options offered where damage repeats
- Texture matched to the surrounding surface

## Our Process

1. **Assess**: We check the extent and whether the damage location is a repeat offender.
2. **Scope**: Written price including any recommended prevention upgrade.
3. **Protect**: Area protected before removal begins.
4. **Rebuild**: Damaged material removed, backing set, and the profile rebuilt true.
5. **Match**: Texture matched, sanded with dust control, and cleaned.

## What's Included

- Damage assessment and cause review
- Removal of crushed or fractured material
- Backing where the substrate is compromised
- New board or bead installed
- Compound build and feathering
- Texture matching and cleanup

## Frequently Asked Questions

### Can you stop this happening again?

Often, yes. Abuse resistant or impact resistant board, a metal rather than paper faced corner bead, or a corner guard all reduce recurrence significantly. In corridors and rental turnovers this pays for itself quickly.
