        "text": "The total cost to patch drywall depends primarily on the hole size, required backing, texture complexity, and painting scope. Small nail holes or minor cracks require minimal labor, keeping costs low. Larger repairs—such as patches after plumbing leaks, electrical rewiring, or storm-damage restoration—require adding wood backing, hanging new sheetrock, applying multiple coats of mud, and custom texturing. Costs also reflect whether you need the entire wall painted so the patched area matches without noticeable paint sheen differences.",

        "description": "Costs vary based on the size and depth of the damage, whether backing framing is needed, the complexity of wall texturing, and if the entire wall requires repainting."
