I recently had some work done in my new home where the builder had to cut a hole in the ceiling after everything was finished. They repaired the drywall and painted it, but now the patched area looks different in natural light—it appears almost like a big faded stain. The builder's rep says it can't be completely blended in due to the texture. Is that really true, or is he just trying to avoid extra work?

It’s definitely possible to touch up textured ceilings if you find the right person to do it! Textured ceilings can be tricky, but with the right technique, they can blend in pretty well. If you can, share pictures of the area for better advice!
Whether it's popcorn or knockdown texture, replicating it can be tough. It really takes some skill to make repairs look seamless. It sounds like the builder may have cut corners, to be honest.
Yeah, I kind of got that vibe too. It's not super noticeable under the ceiling light, but the area is way bigger than it should be.
