I was reluctant to have the Kaiser Wilhelm Spiked Helmet Society around for the pogo dancing championships, but after seeing this, the boys are all welcome.
This comment has gone too long without being noticed.
👌🏼😂😂😂😂
The boys should be so lucky, lucky lucky lucky, the boys should be so lucky in love.
Remember to get the leak fixed first, folks.
Great video. You blow my mind with new knowledge every time.
Thanks for this DIY tutorial. I’d add that people should be very careful cutting through the ceiling to not accidentally go through any hidden cables or pipes up there.
And wear safty glasses!!

Great video Bill, clear and to the point. Btw, just call it plasterboard, the Americans will figure it out and you are promoting Aussie culture as a bonus. Thanks heaps.
Lol 👍👍👍
I'm American and plasterboard was the first tf thing I ever used. We have that here you know. Plaster board and Drywall are different products altogether but do get lumped in all together as "sheetrock". Just different applications.
This really helped my anxiety about a hole I accidently made in the floor in the attic / ceiling of closet. Thanks for the excellent how to video.
People like you make it possible for people like me to own a house. Thank you for your time
Glad I could help👍👍👍
Thanks Bill. Just got a quote for exactly the same thing. $270. I think I will give it a go myself after watching your tutorial.
Thank you for detailed, step by step, explanation. Helps a lot.
Fantastic having Aussie fellas explain stuff without going on and on and on. Well done and thanks.
I've been putting this off for over a month thinking it's a more complex job than it obviously is...cheers dude.
More jobs to do round this old house aswell, may even (will defo) use more of your vids and advice.
Very nice job. Thank you for showing us the proper way to do the ceiling repair!
And that ladies and gentlemen is what a real tradesmen looks like .
Best video! YOUu made it very easy to understand and I feel more confident I can do this now
Have to say from all the demonstration videos i enjoy yours the most, you explain clearly and your energy portrays a good positive energy and confidence which is very motivational. Keep making the video and great job!
You’re welcome 👍
U were a huge help. Thanks. I had forgotten about placing those wood slats to attach replacement board.
You explained it so well. I was able to repair a small water damage on my ceiling. Thanks!!
A great, no nonsense repair tutorial. Perfect for my water damage hole in my Ceiling!
AWESOME JOB! Thank you for explaining the tape and drywall, I always have issues with that! I liked and subscribed to your channel.
Thank you so much. You've saved me a heap of time and taken my fear away from ruining my ceiling. I'm actually excited to do this tomorrow.
Thankful! I’m trying this in a few!

Very helpful for my holes in ceiling I’m going to tackle
You're such a good explainer.
You'd make a top lecturer at TAFE.
no no not TAFE.

@@mercamg9312 since when does university teach practical knowledge that is useful
very straight forward instructions thanks!
Awesome, Thank you for the tutorial DIY.
Hello from the UK - that was a brilliant video. Straight to the point, very clear to see what you're doing and good explanations too. Great job
Thank you, Bill. An excellent instructional video. As others have noted, please wear a mask - we need you healthy, so you can continue to make even more great videos. 😃
And be careful not to cut thru live wires in ceiling.
Good one you make it look easy Bill
One of the best tips I have ever watched. Thanks for sharing your skills
Thank you for the simple and straight forward directions. This video is the exact help I was looking for to educate me for my next project!
I do like the way you do your work as well as your enthusiasm for doing a good job. Top marks to you.
Great video, thanks. Now I can fix my gyprock and my plasterboard and my dry wall too.
Great explanation easy to follow, thank you very much. Learnt quite a bit from your video.
Regarding wetting the tape; my Dad (now retired) was a drywall taper for almost 50 years, he sometimes used the tape dry exactly as you did it, but when he was doing joints, he would use wet tape, but not like the guy in that video who seems to just soak the tape in water in a bucket, my dad had a box that was filled a wet cement mixture, on the back of the box was a place to hang the roll of tape, the tape was then fed through the box in a little slit, and pulled out of the other side of the box from another slit, and when it came out the other side it was soaked in wet cement and slapped onto the joints, then cleaned with the trowel. My Dad made this box, so did most of the other tapers.
Great video. Thanks!!
Bloody awesome mate, excellent work, appreciated the detailed illustration of all of the steps required for this job, and great to finally hear an Aussie accent on one of these videos.
That's exactly what I was thinking. Holy cow
Lol you’re welcome 👍
Awesomely explained !
Very good.. The other day my DVS ventilation wasn't working good enough, had to go into the roofing air to check for the DVS filters, accidentally stepped onto the GIP board and put a big freaking hole, I contacted few people and they all made me feel like a clown, but I know what to look for now, fix the hole mate, much appreciated, you are a life saver, you made it look like so simple. Easy az.
Bravissimo, Bill! You make what feels to amateurs like me like hugely complex jobs, very practical and achievable jobs that make me feel more confident about starting and getting the jobs done! Thanks from Warrnambool, Victoria.
You’re very welcome 👍
Well done, mate. I'm going to give it a go. If it doesn't work I'll send you a ticket to come to NZ and do it properly for me.
Ticket to NZ, not Poland? lol
Go you halfsies, can do with him 😂

I’m glad I watched this vid because the only thing I wouldn’t have used was the mesh,didn’t know it existed. Now I need to start on the 6 down light holes in the kitchen due to upgrading the lights. 20 + years old 😳. Nice one Bill
Good stuff! Thanks!
Brilliant Video, so helpful. Thanks
That was a big help many thanks 👍
Very informative video. Well Done!

Best video I have seen on this yet!!
Thank You!!
You're very welcome👍
looks great that bill
Excelent demo.
Great tuition. Thanks for the video.
Thank you sir. Now I know how to go about fixing my hole in my ceiling... Thanks again..
Thanks. You just might have saved me from a severe bollocking from the missus! 😌
Amazing job, well done
Very informative and a job well done, Definitely subscribing.
You have it so easy! I've just fixed a 2 foot / half metre diameter hole in a 200 year old ceiling in Serbia. It was about an inch thick and made from water reeds, metal mesh and mud! but basically the same technique. First I levelled out the floor boards above by screwing up small pieces of chip board. Then one big piece of chipboard to fill the hole about 1mm down from the surface of the ceiling. Then a couple of coats of filler. (i didn't have to be perfect like you or it would have stood out from the original work!) but i love your smoothing skills. I probably need a bigger smoother thingy!
Loud & clear, thanks for the repair tips video. Subscribed.
👍
Thank you Bill! I used the scrap-lumber trick to patch up some holes in my drywall over the weekend and it worked great.
For everyone else, avoid my initial mistake: don't try to use scrap drywall instead of wood as a shortcut. I tried that, the screws didn't countersink and the scrap of drywall broke anyway. Once I used wood like Bill said, it worked just like in the video.
Good video. Now to put it into practice 🙂
Hi Bill, thanks for a great tutorial. Easy to follow and now I know what to do I am going to give it a go.
You’re welcome 👍
Good video, many thanks
This is excellent!
Great tutorial.
Great instructions from an expert. Cheers mate 👍
👍👍👍
Very well done. In USA people don't want to work because most people are on public aid and get more money from government that work for someone. I think I can fix my wall by myself now and all the credit goes to you. Thanks again
Why am I watching this, I don't even have a hole in my ceiling
maybe the same reason I´ve watching all this videos that guy is really hot,love his face and perfect body at the same time learning about this stuff
one day you will have one...
I got a hole in my ceiling that needs to be patched due to plumbing work. This was super helpful and borderline /r/mildlysatisfying.
Cheers!
Don't do it mate..
I have a hole in my pocket where all my money is falling out.
