A little tip to home owners if you get a leak in a ceiling as soon as you notice put a whole in it so it doesn’t spread across the whole board it can prevent the sheet from bowing and falling the water spreads and starts soaking the drywall causing it to turn soft and the screws pull loose

@cry2urmom757 3 года назад

Reading that gave me a headache 😔

@JoeKing67. 3 года назад

First! You must fix leak!

@kenseymour5152 3 года назад

@@JoeKing67. of course the leak has to be fixed I just stated that if you come across a leak in your ceiling just put a hole in the drywall if not the water spreads across the whole board and causes the paper backing to start letting water into the gypsum and it turns back into mud and the whole board will sag and finally collapse if you put a whole in it and let it drip into a pal then all you have to fix is the hole that you put into it not the whole ceiling. In some cases you will have to take the board down to fix the problem

@JT_70 3 года назад

Water stain is over a bed so can’t put a hole in the drywall and allow it to drip. I put a bucket in the attic to catch the drip but we found the damage too late. One of 4 rooms with ceiling damage from separate roof leaks.

This has definitely been an informative video. I have a hole in the ceiling in my garage that's been there since 2018. I have tried to tackle it and now i know i've been concentrating on the wrong thing. Me being a novice in this area thought I had to scrape away the texture around the hole on the existing sheetrock to ensure proper blending. I have racked my brain trying to figure out how to scrap off the old texture. When I tackle this again I plan to get it finished and in the past.

As the owner of 1940's row home where something is always either leaking, cracking, or creaking this demystifies the exact repair I have coming up. I'm not doing this myself, but at least I better understand what questions to ask before I choose my pro. Thank you so much!!

Superior video, superior work, superior person-brain. I am a homeowner/DIYer who has watched thousands and thousands of youtube videos and saved oodles of money and guaranteed that by doing it ourselves it's going to be done right. My wife and I even fix our own roof leaks on our tiled roof and it's not just the money we save but the hassle of dealing with many, many dishonest incompetent people out there. Thanks from Miami, Florida.

@adamames6907 2 года назад

I am a contractor. Love your tricks. Sometimes we get so stuck in out ways its difficult to see a different method until someone else shows us. Hence we learn. Over my carreer in the trades i have probably done the most of drywall finishing, and drywall repairs can be the worst to finish properly and match existing finish, like there was no repair in the first place, thats the goal. Its much easier to finish new drywall. I appreciate you sharing your experience with everyone who wants to know and doing a great job in the process. you tha man! Fyi you have sold me on the fibafuse. I am used to using mesh tape with a hot mud, but if i can get a flatter tape that fuses better with the mud, those who finish drywall know thats the way to go. Keep it up man!

I'd like to suggest maybe putting together a separate video where you break down what each of this compounds, muds and stuff are for, or why you use them. As for the cats, anytime I do repairs around my house the cat is there watching, knowing cats they are probably grading your work.

@jorgecampa57 2 года назад

Great video Paul. I do ceiling repairs in condominium buildings. Most leaks are caused by a leaking bathtub drain or toilet wax ring leaks. I use a oscillating multitool to cut the plaster coated stucco ceiling. Then I use the wood and cut it 4 inches longer on each side of the repair . I also use a thin drill bit to make pilot holes to screw the wood to the ceiling so the plaster won’t crack. Then I screw the new drywall using shims to level the repair and make it flush with the rest of the ceiling. Afterwards I bed the mash tape with 20 minute mud. After the mud sets up I give it a second coat of 20 minute mud through the rest of the repair extending the mud 12 inches from the repair. The third and fourth coats I use 90 minute mud very thinned out so I can skim coat the rest of the repair. I let it dry well between each coat. On the third day I sanded prime it and paint it. Thank you for sharing your techniques specially the skip trowel finish.

I’m a diy’er and I’d love to have someone remove all my popcorn ceilings but it’ll have to be me because everyone around here wants 40 bucks plus an hour to do anything like this and they like to stand around taking their time or playing on their phones. I appreciate the videos as an educational thing. Not a fan of mud and even less of the sanding! Lol.

I have been in construction for over 30 years. My greatest failing is drywall repair. I've long said that some of the best drywallers are artists at their craft. This video was one of the best instructional videos I have ever seen. I'm still horrible at drywall repair, but now I know where I went wrong. Thanks!

I can do just about anything in renovations, but mudding drywall! I need a lot more practice, I blame my parents for not letting me play with mud when I was a kid.

In my younger days I was a DIY guy. Something needed fixing in my house, I did it. Unfortunately age and physical barriers caught up with me and about all I can do now is change light bulbs. I love watching your type of video though.

This is the first video i clicked on and its exactly what i was looking for! Wr had water damage from tub overflow in our basement guest room with a finished ceiling (bought the house that way). I was able to fix my overflow gasget fron a previous video. Now to repair the ceiling without relying on someone else. Thanks so much for all the detailed info of product and tools!!

@chalyfalcon24 11 месяцев назад

I'm doing some drywall repairs under one of my windows and this is just what I needed to finish the job, with some practice I think I cand do the skim coat and nock down as close as possible as what you did, I've done lots of drywall repairs around my house but never been satisfied with the results. Wish me luck this time, thank you Sir for sharing your talents, I appreciate it very much.

@Constructachick 3 года назад

I do drywall work professionally. I repair water damaged drywall all day at my full time job for a large condo complex and a handy ma'am on the side. I do my repairs essentially the same way. I prefer 5 min mud for the first couple coats

@MrTicker69 3 года назад

Your jobs must be half ass Knockdown should have been scraped so the board sits flush After the 3 coats you can still see the repair. 37 years as a plasterer this is a quick fix for a quick profit!!!

@Constructachick 3 года назад

@@MrTicker69 I certainly didn't want to write a step by step book in a RU-vid comment about how I do them. I usually do about 5 coats total with knock downs in between. My repairs are invisible at the end 😉

@TheBstegold Год назад

I came across your video after waking up to a flooded bathroom on my second floor which damaged the first floor ceiling. About 3 feet of the ceiling cracked in a straight line.. I also have some water marks and a few big bubbles. I plan to wait until the area is dried before starting the repairs etc. Your video is on track and it is very helpful to me. This is also my first time so I will be watching your video a few times over and over. Thanks again for your very detailed instructions. PS. I just replaced the water supply valve and the floatation device in the toilet tank - these two culprits are responsible for the damage, smile.

My Dad was a general contractor and I worked for him growning up, my wife and I built our house from the ground up, but the rock joints were lacking for sure. we are now replacing some windows with smaller ones and wanted to get some tips on taping and blending in with the old rock. Great video and very helpful. I appreciate it.

Great work man! Im a home remodeler, zach of all trades- if ya will.. i see all sorts of different issues from historical plaster homes to college rentals beaten up by puppy love. Ive seemed to develop a natural knack for matching textures, and listening to others' tips and techniques is invaluable. Im always interested to get a different take on things- appreciate your input!
