Questions about drywall repair and painting
Why does drywall crack, and can it be repaired?
Hairline cracks at corners and over doorways usually come from the house settling and from seasonal humidity moving the framing. They are cosmetic and can be taped, filled and repainted so they do not return quickly. Cracks that are wide, growing, stair-stepped or paired with doors that stick can point to a structural or moisture problem and are worth having looked at before they are patched.
How do I fix a hole in drywall?
Small nail and screw holes take a dab of filler, a sand and a touch of paint. Holes up to a few inches get a self-adhesive mesh patch, two or three thin coats of compound, sanding and paint. Larger holes need a drywall piece screwed to backing strips, then taped and finished. The hard part is matching the texture and paint sheen so the repair disappears; feathering the compound wide and repainting the whole wall section helps.
Can I paint over wallpaper?
You can, but it rarely looks good for long. Paint can lift the paper's seams and edges, and any texture shows through. If the paper is well stuck, a primer made for the job followed by two coats of paint is a workable shortcut for a low-stakes room. For a lasting result, removing the paper, washing off the paste, repairing the wall and priming is the proper route.
What happens if the electrician has to cut holes in the ceiling or wall for new wiring, and who fixes them?
Sometimes it cannot be avoided. Running new cable often requires opening small sections of a wall or ceiling so the wire can be pulled, fastened properly and connected the way the Ontario Electrical Safety Code requires. That usually leaves a few small holes in the drywall. Tucasa Home Improvement offers drywall patching and finishing as an added service to the electrical work, but it is discussed with you first and the price is agreed before any patching starts. You can also decline it at any time and take care of the patches yourself or with another contractor. In some cases Tucasa may include the drywall patches at no charge, when that is agreed at the estimate stage, before the contract is signed.
