Corner bead is the metal or vinyl edge that protects outside corners of drywall. Once it’s dented, cracked or pulling away, mud flakes off and the corner looks chewed up no matter how much you paint it.
We cut out the damaged length of bead, install new bead set straight and plumb, then finish it in thin coats so the new section blends seamlessly into the rest of the corner. The corner is left crisp, solid 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you repair just part of a corner?
Yes. We replace only the damaged length and blend it into the existing corner.
What about rust spots on corners?
Rust means moisture has reached metal bead. We replace the rusted section and seal it so it doesn’t bleed through paint.
Do you repair rounded (bullnose) corners?
Yes. We match bullnose and square corners.
