Ceiling Hole & Patch Repair

Ceilings are harder to patch invisibly than walls: light hits them at an angle and texture has to match exactly. That’s our specialty.

Ceiling Hole & Patch Repair by The Patch Guyz

Ceiling holes come from all directions: a foot through from the attic, an old light or fan box, a plumber’s access cut, or a section removed after a leak. Every one of them needs solid backing overhead and a texture match that holds up under raking light.

We cut the opening clean, install backing so the patch is flush and secure, then tape, finish and texture it to match your ceiling, whether that’s smooth, knockdown, orange peel or popcorn. We leave it primed and paint-ready.

The Patch Guyz are drywall repair specialists. We patch and restore existing walls and ceilings. We don’t do new-construction drywall or whole-room remodels.

    Texture matched, paint-ready

    We blend the surface or match your existing texture and leave a clean, primed, paint-ready patch. Touch-up paint of the repaired area is available.

A ceiling patch has to be fully backed and texture-matched or it shows every time the light changes. We finish ceilings to blend in from every angle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you patch a hole where someone stepped through from the attic?

Yes. It’s a common repair. We add backing, patch it flush and match the ceiling texture.

Can you match popcorn or knockdown ceilings?

Yes. We match popcorn, knockdown, orange peel and smooth ceilings.

Do I need to repaint the whole ceiling?

Not always. We leave the patch primed; whether it needs a full coat depends on how the existing paint has aged. We’ll tell you up front.
