Simple & stress-free
How it works
Check how deep it goes
Claw marks that only scraped paint are treated differently from chewing that broke through the paper face or exposed the gypsum core underneath.
Rebuild the surface
Damaged areas are built back up in thin compound layers rather than one thick fill, and a chewed corner gets new corner bead if the old one is bent or broken through.
Match texture and paint
The repair is sanded smooth, textured to match, and painted to blend in at floor level, where lighting often shows patches more than higher on the wall.

Pet Damage Drywall Repair in Charleston — FAQ
Can scratched or chewed drywall actually be fixed, or does it need to be replaced?
As long as the damage hasn't gone all the way through the board, it can be rebuilt with compound in layers rather than replaced. Full replacement is only needed for the rare case of a hole punched clean through.
Will the repair hold up if my pet keeps going after the same spot?
The repair restores the wall, but it isn't pet-proof — if the scratching or chewing continues at the same spot, it can eventually damage it again. Addressing the habit or blocking access to that spot helps it last.
Can you fix a chewed corner, not just a flat section of wall?
Yes. A chewed outside corner usually means the corner bead itself is bent or broken, so that gets straightened or replaced along with rebuilding the drywall around it.
Does staining or odor near the damage affect the repair?
Surface staining usually doesn't affect the drywall repair itself, but if the area feels soft or damp, that's checked first in case moisture got into the wall beneath it.
Local context
Pet Damage Drywall Repair across Charleston
Charleston's humid subtropical climate, salt air and active storm season are tough on homes — swollen doors, rusting hardware, mildew-prone caulk and storm-loosened trim are all common. Downtown's historic houses add original plaster walls and tight, detailed millwork, while West Ashley and the islands bring newer builds with their own quirks. Our pros are comfortable with both.
