        "text": "Yes, you can repair drywall in a mobile home, but the technique depends on what is currently installed. Many manufactured homes feature vinyl-covered gypsum wall panels (VOG) with plastic batten strips rather than traditional taped sheetrock. If you have standard sheetrock, typical patching, mudding, and sanding apply. If you have vinyl panels, a technician must either patch the panel directly or remove the batten strips, tape the seams, and skim coat the surface. A hands-on contractor like Abraham Becerra at HH Remodeling inspects the wall backing first to ensure repairs do not crack under normal structure movement.",
