We hired a plumber to replace our outdoor spigot. But he just bashed the wall with his hammer to reach the spigot from behind to replace it and left me with the repairs. I am a complete N00B but wanting to learn home repair bought a hand drywall saw, joint compound and indoor drywall to fix the damage. But it seems like there is some plastic material and insulation that he damaged (or maybe it was always like this, see picture). Should I repair this too in some way before trying to patch the drywall?
