@keith cunningham those are good points, however it does look shoddy and cheap to us Europeans; our walls are solid brick or breeze block with plaster directly on, you couldn't punch through it and would instead break your hand if you tried. We have seen videos however of people jumping through drywall and it doesn't inspire confidence in the strength of your homes.

Personally, I use drywall mud to patch instead of spackle. Spackling requires sanding with the attendant dust, extra work, tools, etc. Drywall mud is water-based, so a damp sponge can be used to lightly, and in several directions over the patch, literally wipe away excess until only the area repaired is left for paint and/or primer.

Fewer coats done neatly and or correctly is less time and work. Also a setting type joint compound will definitely speed things up and is great for this type of small repair, it also bonds better to plaster than an all purpose mud.

Another method for small holes is to cut the hole in the wall about 2” smaller than the patch you cut. Then cut the paper on one side of the patch at that 2” line. Scrape off the gypsum and use the paper to secure it to the wall.

If you mix your mud spackle etc with paint to a peanut butter consistency and put your tape or patch it lays down the first and maybe only coat. Use the technic to patch small nail holes, etc less work and less mess and less time on site.

When should you use the mesh drywall patches as opposed to cutting a piece of drywall and patching?
@danb.709
@danb.709 4 года назад
I like how people gave thumbs up without giving any advice. I would say never use the mesh patch unless you just don't have time or confidence to do it right. It lies on top of the wall adding thickness that will be noticeable in the middle of large wall and depending on climate, humidity, if it ever gets damp ect.. it may begin to crack and separate over time.
@SpideySensei72
@SpideySensei72 3 года назад
Wouldn't it depend entirele on the size and location area of the hole? For example, he used the patch underneath the window sill due to its size and location. However, if she had huge holes in the drywall she'd have more room to cut a larger space and place those furring strips behind it to support the new drywall patch.
@noonespecial9233
@noonespecial9233 3 года назад
I feel like Spidey is right. The metal patch works perfectly in a weird spot, like up against that window. Or if you had a hole right by a light switch or socket, and didn't want to risk screwing up your electric by sawing through the gypsum board. Personal story, had a party and someone got a little too...plastered (hah) and fell into the wall and made a big dent with a hole in the middle. It was too big for a metal patch, and since it was like the middle of the wall it was easily accessible for me to cut out the damage and do the "proper" patch job.
@lonewolf3564
@lonewolf3564 3 года назад
I used to do construction and contracting. You basically use a metal patch depending on where the location of the hole is and what size the hole is, and if the hole is in an area where you might ever anticipate needing to nail, mount or hang something. A wire mesh patch will not allow you to hang anything in that section of the repaired wall. Consider the wire mesh to be a Band-Aid cosmetic fix for tiny holes in non-important spaces. My general rule of thumb is if the hole is bigger than 3 inches in size then the wire mesh patch won't cut it and you must do as Tommy showed where you cut out a section of the drywall and replace it with a backer board and use a drywall section as a patch.

At my junior high we had pool tables in the cafeteria, and there were all kinds of holes like this in the wall from kids ramming the que into it, and throwing balls at. They finally had the maintenance guys come in and fill the holes, but they didn't let the stuff dry before the kids came back for lunch. So now there was plaster everywhere, and the holes were bigger from kids messing with them.

SeeJaneDrill had a great technique for filling holes involving making a SMALLER hole in the wall than your patch piece of drywall, removing some of the hard drywall of the patch piece, and using the paper to overlap the seams and act as your backing for the spackle. Can't get much more simple or seamless than that! Similar to what Tommy did at the end, but his method wouldn't work if there wasn't a stud right behind the patch!
