Thanks for the video it was really useful!
I wish we saw a close up after they’re all done
Also pros and cons of each one would’ve been useful..
What size mallet should I use to make the hole in the wall?
感謝你一直以來對大家的耐心教導！
Thank you for the helpful information and tips.
So useful. Great video. Awesome content.
Two things:
1. Before taping the joints, you should sand the texture off the drywall around the hole to keep your patch flat with the rest of the wall.
2. Why would you do this to your own house? Build a fake wall in the garage or something. Now you'll see those patches forever.
" Build a fake wall in the garage or something. Now you'll see those patches forever." RIGHT?!?! That's the same thing I was thinking. You can tell where he patched when he panned the camera over it.
Great video, thanks!
As a master journeyman in drywall/framing. Both 2 and 3 are pro ways. The third one people in the trade call “California patch” lol also backing is very important I had the video on mute so I couldn’t hear the reason why you didn’t put backing in the third one. Either way for an average home repair it was good!
Backings is always a good idea.
I find it best to let texture sit in hot water so texture can warm up and every 5 min shake it then when warm spray
I watch all of your videos and find them very helpful, although I would love to see more challenging holes to fill. I watched your video where you installed a power outlet behind your toilet and left a huge “L” shaped drywall job on the outside of your bathroom. That’s the one I would really learn from. I’m no professional by no means, I just rather learn from CZcams and put these things together Lol
great video, easy instructions. I would add the pink stuff as an option for mud...easier for beginners. My hope is that like popcorn ceilings, orange peel goes away.
I agree
MAN, that 3rd way was amazing!
I am no pro, but I think you need to knock down the texture spray with a trowel, then sand and paint.
Yeah that bothered me 😬
Nope. when first sprayed it looks like its super tall off the wall and then ends up flattening out when it drys. Unless the rest of the texture is a knockdown than obviously you'd match it.
@@logangeddes3017 ya I think he has actual orange peel where it’s bumpy. But could’ve added a short 30s clip to show the diff between orange peel m knockdown
I'm a handyman/remodeler and my favorite method is one taught to be by a drywaller of 40+ years. Follow step number two with the backing but use a few more screws and backing around all edges. Using a sharp knife V out the edges. Use 20 minute mud and create a runny slurry then take an old paintbrush and coat edges getting in deep. Immediately mix more 20 minute mud to a normal consistency and press in firmly. Allowed to dry for several hours before sanding and then apply one more thin coat over the whole area with reg dwall mud. Sand flush when it's dry and you're good to go for primer and paint. No tape needed as long as the patch isn't too large. I've done this method for small patches for a while now and never had any issues.
I do something similar, I taper in the edges of the wall and the patch creating the V channel. Then I fill it with mud, but push in a thin strip of paper tape enough to cover the seam, and remain below the wall level. This prevents the air from coming through and cracking later. The best part is, you can finish the mud to the original wall surface level, and there is no noticeable bump. I have done hundreds of these over the decades. much better in every way than a california patch.
sounds good, I've got a patch to try this on soon. How long do you leave the slurry in the joint before following with the second coat of 20?
@@preago I apply the regular mixed 20 mud right away when the slurry is still wet. Should also work if you apply the slurry thin and let it set up for a bit too but I've never actually done it that way.
Need more of these videos
glad you liked it
Never realized I was doing it the "Pro" way all these years. Good to know!
Ive been doing construction for over 25 yrs now..The second one was the best route the last "pro" patch is more noticeable with light.. but good job I guess
Thanks for the comment, I guess
Can’t wait
#2 is the way to go
It’s actually a 20 min working time which means it starts to dry around that duration not completely dry and ready to sand yet. Also the pro way shown here is commonly known as a hot patch or California patch. Ironically a lot of pro sheet rock people look down on that method lol. In rather case all these are good examples for home owner diy types.
This is a good video. By the way can you make a video of your peg board for hanging your tools ?
His peg board is the Ryobi Link system. It's sponsored.
@@Blahnik1182 thanks for the info
I'm a journeyman and without backing, all it takes is somebody to hit or bump the patch for it to crack. You aren't supposed to use paper tape with quick mud.
Thank you.
One ❓ do you sand the texture once it dries? Or just leave it
If you did it right you leave it.
anybody else notice that the texture was not matched very well? I guess he said how to patch it not do proper texture. I agree with others still needs screws and please don't use spray can texture unless you don't care if it looks good or not.
For the pro version, will there be any “give” to that hole, since there aren’t any screws holding it in place, just a thin layer of tape/compound?
Typically it’s done on smaller repairs/areas. It is not advisable on bigger areas. Screws with tape are by far the strongest patch
Did Irina have to be out of the house as you bashed holes in her walls?
it was a surprise
hey nice traeger!! consider making diy smoked brisket, pork butt, ... ? ;)
Option 1 is renters getting their deposit back. Not good. Hang a picture there later? crap, nail falls right out.
Option 3 is the California patch, has no guarantee of stability, since the patch floated in the hole. too risky for larger holes.
Option 2 is the best, however, use fibafuse tape instead of standard paper tape. It's thinner and will adhere better to the surrounding surface since the mud goes all the way though it. Paper tape is best for new installs since it can be completely buried in the mud layers whereas with a patch you are trying to keep the mud as thin as possible.
Why are your temperature probes for your grill on the ground kicked under that pit boss??? There is a storage tray in the pellet box.
I’m a WILD BOY
The "Pro" method is by far the easiest for a good result. I agree with others that a backing support is a good idea no matter what, since you are mudding anyway.
The pro version is just a skillset thing. Basically a cool party trick. Backing is the way to go.
Are we fixing to put shiplap on that bedroom wall? Lol
haha I hope not
You know you've made it when you're using bottled water :) great vid!
Thank you! Cheers!
I believe you usually want to primer, over dryed, sanded and 'damp-wiped' joint compound, before painting. All else...is exceptional. funny...i actually prefer the 'intermediate' method. Ha ha!...
I do as well
Really not much difference but all in the details
It’s called a hot patch
The first step to repairing a dry wall is to not make a huge hole in it 😜
Facts.
You realise that you could have done this video with a peace of drywall in your workshop?
Just saying.....
too much stuff on the walls in the garage
@@MrBuildit 😁
Are you demoing this wall eventually? Why would you do this to your own house! It's clearly patched now with that texture/paint sheen off from the rest of the wall.
Looks fantastic now that the texture is cured.
I was so waiting for you wife to walk in...
So it's late...and I'm watching this video in bed. My wife enters the room and hears the background music playing and I have some explaining to do 🤣
lol. It's not what it looks like
@@MrBuildit Hey Honey! I'm gonna blast 3 holes in our bedroom wall for this next video okay?
Great video though man. Love the channel! You're seriously out here just figuring it out like the majority of us. Been watching for years now and it's really cool to see your skill set and confidence grow. Keep it up!
Seems crazy to make actual holes in your wall for a video. Just use a mock up piece of drwall.
wrong, it does NOT dry in 20 minutes, it SETS in 20 min so you can put the 2nd coat, people keep getting this wrong....
First
No offence but to be really showing pro vs others would be more reliable from a pro not a diyer. Maybe some references from pros could go a long way
Never texture drywall!! It's a garbage cover for not being patient enough to do the job correctly
Which is why most home builders put orange peel on every wall. In Texas I haven’t seen a home with smooth walls, we are all orange peel out here so yes you would want to texture your patch so you match. I’m not sanding my entire house.
It's already textured, do you want him to sand down every damn wall? Get real.
Thats gonna look bad in 2 or 3 days
Can an American please explain to me why you guys have textured walls? It looks so dated… what’s wrong with flat walls
