What changes the price
- Hole size. Anything under 6 in. patches quickly. Past 6 in. we need backer strips or a stud-to-stud cut, which doubles the labor time.
- Texture. Orange peel and knockdown are common in Frisco builds; matching either adds 15–30 minutes. Smooth walls (common in newer Prosper and Celina homes) are faster.
- Ceiling vs. wall. Overhead work adds ~30% because of the setup, drop cloths, and awkward mudding angles.
- Paint. Touch-up with your leftover can is included. A full re-coat wall-to-corner is billed at our painting rate.
- Water damage. We check moisture first. If the cavity is wet, the sheet has to come out and dry before any patch — priced per square foot.
DIY vs. hiring a Frisco handyman
A single anchor hole is a reasonable DIY. Anything larger than a fist usually looks better when a pro does it — the giveaway on amateur repairs is texture that doesn't blend and a slight bulge from over-mudding. On a resale wall or a room you just painted, the $150–$250 patch is worth it.
Members on our maintenance plan get up to 3 hours of hands-on work per visit — most drywall patches fit inside that window at no extra labor charge.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to fix a small hole in drywall in Frisco?
Most small patches — nail pops, anchor holes, or hairline cracks — run $115 to $185 in Frisco, including spackle, sanding, primer, and a paint touch-up when the customer supplies the color.
How much to repair a doorknob-sized hole?
A standard doorknob hole (2 to 6 inches) typically costs $155 to $245 in the Frisco / Plano / McKinney area. Price covers a California or mesh patch, three coats of joint compound, and texture matching.
How much does a large drywall hole cost to repair?
Holes between 12 and 24 inches usually run $345 to $525. We cut back to the nearest studs, install new drywall, tape and mud in three coats, then match the existing orange-peel or knockdown texture.
Do drywall repair prices include paint?
Prime and touch-up paint are included when you supply a matching can. Full-wall repainting is billed separately at our painting rate — members save 15% on labor and materials.
How long does drywall repair take?
Small patches finish in under an hour. Medium and large holes take two to four hours because joint compound needs time to dry between coats. Full sheet replacements are usually same-day.
