Complete drywall repair pricing for Atlanta homes in 2026 by damage type, patch size, and project scope.
Drywall damage is one of the most common issues Atlanta homeowners face — from nail pops and doorknob holes to water damage and cracked seams. Here is what professional drywall repair costs in 2026.
Cost by Repair Type
Small patches (nail holes, minor dents) cost $75-$150 each. Medium patches (fist-sized holes, doorknob damage) run $150-$300 each. Large patches (water damage, structural settlement cracks) cost $300-$600 each. Full room skim-coating or retexturing runs $1.50-$3.50 per square foot.
Popcorn Ceiling Removal Pricing
Removing popcorn texture costs $1-$2 per square foot in Atlanta, or $1,000-$3,000 per room. If asbestos testing is needed (homes built before 1980), add $200-$400 for lab analysis. If asbestos is present, we'll pause and refer you to a licensed abatement contractor before we resume the paint work. OVO doesn't perform asbestos abatement ourselves.
Water Damage Repair
Water-damaged drywall often requires full section replacement rather than patching. Costs range from $500-$2,000 depending on the extent of damage. If mold is present, remediation adds $500-$3,000 before drywall work can begin. OVO Painting coordinates plumber referrals and moisture testing as part of water damage projects.
