Top Drywall Repair & Patch related questions
As you may know by now, drywall is prone to physical damage from dents or knocks. It is also vulnerable to water damage and mould. However, it offers excellent insulation, considerable soundproofing, and is fire resistant. It is also relatively affordable, making it easier to replace and a popular choice for home builders.Â
You can patch a ceiling’s drywall yourself as long as you have the proper tools, materials and skills needed for the job. However, for a less experienced handyman, the job may take longer to complete, and the overall quality of repair may suffer. It’s best to leave the job to the experts, especially when assessing damage to prevent costly fixes in the future.
Yes, you can recycle damaged drywall. Though you may need to do some digging to find a recycler that can accept it. Mould damaged drywall, on the other hand, cannot be recycled. Be sure to dispose of it properly.Â
Small holes only take 15 to 20 minutes to repair. Meanwhile, larger holes may take up to two hours. However, the time it takes to replace multiple drywall panels may vary depending on the size of the job. Be sure to ask your Tasker for an estimated time of completion.

What do drywall repair services include?
Drywall repair services include everything you need to fix damages to your wall and ceiling. Damages include dents, cracks or holes on your drywall. Experts found on our platform can perform the task using industry best practices and adhere to regular safety standards. Drywall repair services include but are not limited to:
Site assessment
Proper assessment and inspection are essential before undertaking any repair job. Whether you need a repair on cracked drywalls or patching up your drywall ceiling, Taskers can assess the damage and what caused it so that they can take this into account during the drywall repair process.  Taskers may even take measurements if needed to determine how much material they need to complete the job. If you’re not sure about the materials you need, feel free to consult your Tasker. Ask if they can source the materials for you and discuss other important points in detail before accepting an offer.
Site preparation
Once you have ironed out the details with your Tasker and completed the site assessment, next on the agenda is site preparation. Taskers may use protective material to cover the worksite and anything nearby to reduce the mess. This makes things easier for the clean-up crew especially from any debris from drywall crack repairs. For any repairs that are caused by leaking water pipes, heating or electrical systems and the like, consider hiring a general contractor to resolve the problem and prevent any further damage in the future.
Wall and ceiling repairs
Once the work site is ready, Taskers can begin the process of patching up, filling and smoothing out the holes and cracks on your drywall. Since drywall is prone to damage, sometimes not even your ceiling is safe. Patching up any damage to your drywall ceiling should pose no difficulty for your Tasker. And after getting drywall ceiling repair near you, consider hiring someone to clean your ceiling for a healthier, aesthetically pleasing space.
Depending on the damage and initial assessment, Taskers may even repair or replace sections of drywall and finish them to match your existing walls. If you need some additional wall painting done, don’t hesitate to post another task and find a specialist on our platform.
Overall, though drywall is prone to damage, it is still an affordable, sturdy material that is ideal for building homes. You can rely on experts on Airtasker for all your drywall repair needs.

Mount Large Mirror + Dyson Vacuum to Drywall
$100
Hillsdale NSW 2036, Australia
13th Sep 2026
Looking for someone experienced with wall mounting to complete two small jobs: 1. Secure/hinge a large leaning floor mirror to the wall The mirror is currently leaning against the wall and needs to be safely secured at the top so it cannot fall or tip over. I’d like it to keep its slightly leaning position rather than be mounted completely flat against the wall. The wall appears to be drywall/plasterboard with metal studs. I previously attempted to install the mirror fixing and encountered metal behind the plasterboard, so I’d prefer someone experienced with this type of wall who can determine the correct mounting point and fixings. 2. Wall mount a Dyson cordless vacuum I’d also like the Dyson wall dock/bracket securely mounted so the vacuum can be stored hanging vertically. I have the Dyson mounting bracket/dock. Please bring a drill, stud/wall scanner and any appropriate screws, anchors or fixings required for both jobs.
Kee was great! Friendly, efficient and did a really good job. Would definitely recommend and use him again 😊

Caulking Silicone and drywall repair
$800
Summer Hill NSW 2130, Australia
7th Sep 2026
::This job has two components:: Caulking and Drywall repair. If you can only quote on one of the two this is ok - simply make your intention clear in your quote by verifying which job you can complete. Ideally, I would like a handyman who can conduct both at the same time but this is not a prerequisite. Refer to the scope plan to delineate each scope. Reference photos attached and I can send more photos on request. JOB 1 (Caulking - shown blue lines on the plan) Re-caulk areas of an apartment which has been subjected to settling of the building. Refer to the below details and include the removal of old caulking where applicable. Note that the measurements are for the entire run of each of the affected areas - it assumes patch repairs are not possible for the purpose of a conservative quote. If you can patch repair to reduce your quote that is even better. Shower (ignore the bathtubs) full floor inside the shower @ 1460x900mm Bathroom (dry area) 1 of 1460mm @ floor 1 of 2400mm @ wall Skirting (generally) JOB 2 (Drywall + skirting repair) Repair damaged PB wall, skirting and ceiling. Scope to include up to complete prep work, ready for painting .e.g. spakfilla, sanding etc. Do not include painting in your scope. Area 1: 1 x Main wall junction Drywall and skirting has moved enough for the PB to crack and dislodge. Skirting has a 6mm dislocation Area 2: Secondary Wall junctions (total 3 of) Standard hairline cracks, unlike Area 1. No more than 50mm long. Less than 1mm gap. Skirting has less than 2mm dislocation. Area 3: Ceiling Hairline cracking along the run shown in photos. Thanks
Mark was a pleasure to deal with and did a great job. Appreciate your time and will call if I ever need more work done.

Mount folding table to drywall
$60
Rockdale NSW 2216, Australia
12th Aug 2026
Mount folding table to drywall I need someone to securely attach a folding table/unit to a drywall wall. The table is already assembled and has a base that sits on the floor, so the wall screws will not be carrying the weight of the table. They are mainly there to secure the top of the unit to the wall and prevent it from tipping forward. There are 4 pre-drilled screw holes along the top rear section of the table. The main complication is the skirting board at the bottom of the wall. Because of the skirting, the back of the table cannot sit flush against the drywall. I have therefore bought two boards/spacers the same thickness as the skirting board to sit behind the table and fill the gap. The job would involve: - Positioning the two spacer boards behind the table - Drilling through the existing 4 mounting holes, through the spacer board and into the drywall - Using suitable drywall anchors/fixings to securely hold the unit against the wall - Making sure everything is straight, secure and neatly installed Please see the attached photos, which should make the setup much clearer. Please bring the appropriate screws, drywall anchors/fixings and tools required for the job.
Arrived on time. Did the job well. Highly recommended.
