Repairing water damaged area of a textured ceiling (stippled). Easy DIY. #homerepair #DIY #drywallrepair #contractor #homeimprovements #remodeling #ceilingrepair #texturedceiling
Best video by far!!! This is EXACTLY what I needed !!! Why did it take me so long to find this????!!!! None of the other videos gave all the info that I needed like this one did. Rarely did any of the other vids mention supplies and or the concept of the why's and hows, which is so important for someone who's never done this before. Great job! Thank you!!!
Straight up, no BS, thanks man. I'm getting ready to repair my master bathroom ceiling, and this is exactly what I was looking for. I had no idea where to start.
That is in fact the wrong brush for this style texture. The brush used was similar in size however the right brush used came with the bristles completely flattened making a wider circle. This texture is one of the easier textures to match. Still looks fine in the end tho
That’s what I’ve been finding. I believe AMES sells the flat “rosebud” style brushes that match most ceiling textures I encounter. The brushes used in this video always leave fine stipples and don’t have defined lines in my experience
If I'm repairing a section of texture in the bathroom can I use premixed wallboard joint compound and do I need to use primer as the base or on top of the joint compound before I paint again ? I had an area with chipped and peeling texture and I painted over it and it pulled off a huge chunk of the texture, I just want to do the correct steps
@@ivrie yes, you can use premixed. Just add enough water to thin it down to the consistency of a milk shake. I do usually apply primer before I paint. Good Luck
Great video, but please wear safety goggles for your eyes protection. Especially repairing ceilings. Thanks again! You should be a instructor at a vocational institute educating students.
Great question. According to dictionary.com: an unintentional gap left on a plated, coated, or painted surface. I refer to holidays anything like bubbles, goobers, streaks, scratches, or accidental overlap of material that dries. In this instance, it refers to drywall compound that is not very smooth, or has ridges in it. Hope this helps explain. Thanks for viewing!
@@linkinlogs6991 Thanks for the info, it is the first time I have heard it and I did not think of looking it up in a dictionary, I have my copy of” The New Collins dictionary and thesaurus dated 1991” but it is not in there so I assume it is a resent term ology.

@@linkinlogs6991 thank you so much
Did he say dish soap?
Yes
Great video 👏 Can you please tell me the name of the brush?
It is a texture brush. You can find them at any of the big-box home stores in the drywall section.
Nothing on the mud mixture and consistency other than it needs to match the original exactly.
I've heard of people using dish soap. Does it affect how well the glue works in the mud?
The soap does not affect the adhesive properties of the compound. It makes it smoother, for a cleaner application. Thanks for the view.

Great advice. I definitely should. Appreciate your comment and view!
What should a job like this cost in your area?
You keep on talking about holiday build-up. I have never come across that term, what is the meaning of those word
