        "text": "Repairing a small ceiling hole typically involves patching with joint compound and mesh tape, followed by sanding and painting. For a larger section, especially if it's damaged or sagging, it often requires cutting out the affected drywall and installing a new piece, complete with new framing supports if necessary. The choice between a patch and a full panel replacement depends on the size and integrity of the surrounding ceiling material. A larger repair ensures structural soundness where a patch would be insufficient.",
