Drywall Repair Do's & Don'ts

What to do (and avoid) before and after drywall work in Spanish Fort.

DO's

  • Test popcorn before scraping - Asbestos is common in pre-1980 Spanish Fort homes
  • Fix the moisture source first - No point repairing if humidity keeps coming
  • Clear furniture from room - Dust and debris go everywhere
  • Allow full dry time - Rushing leads to cracks and paint failure
  • Use stain-blocking primer - Water stains bleed through regular primer
  • Batch multiple repairs - Save money vs. separate service calls

DON'Ts

  • Don't scrape popcorn without testing - Asbestos exposure is serious
  • Don't paint over soft drywall - Replace water-damaged sections
  • Don't skip primer on repairs - Flashing will show through paint
  • Don't use mesh tape on corners - Paper tape lasts longer on joints
  • Don't over-sand - You'll sand through the paper facing
  • Don't ignore mold - It needs remediation, not paint
