Repairing Drywall for Backsplash Install
Hi, I've taken off my old backsplash and now need to prepare for installing the new backsplash. I've taken photos of the areas with the worst damage. Looking for advice on what best method is for repair, keeping in mind that it's going to be covered with a new backsplash. Also, the kitchen counter is a new install and I want to take care not to damage it. Thanks in advance for advice. Pictures are from top to bottom, left to right.

Usually when installing a new splash, nothing is done. The new splash will cover the old scar line and that's all you need.
For tile, I would fix the wall. For a solid splash, all you need is some gluing area and you have plenty of that.
Almost all my customers understand this. No sense in fixing the wall when it's just going to be covered up.
