@@militarybrat9734 you’d be surprised how strong a patch like that can be....I have done it a lot over 55 years ....I’ve also did back bracing and cutting back to the studs to repair...... but usually a patch like that last longer then the rest of the wall especially in rentals

@mtaylor935mt 3 года назад

I’ve heard that called a “California patch.” Never done one before, I usually just square the hole and use backers. I’m sure it looks perfect though. Good job on matching the texture. I did a 17x32 patch and a 16x17 patch on a 12 foot ceiling up against crown last week and did a real good match to the existing knockdown texture using thinned down mud and a grout sponge that I customized for the job. Knocked it down with a 12” taping knife. I was proud of the result!

This little trick had made me a ton of money! Only thing I do differently is I mist the paper on the patch before I mud. Probably doesn't help, but it makes me feel like the mud grabs it better. Also, SPOT ON with the knock down blending!!!

@kds471 3 года назад

Mud doesn’t grab better but it helps to push out excess mud when you took it I have found.

@militarybrat9734 3 года назад

There is no way that blended. The original knockdown is done in one direction. He dragged his blade in at least four different directions. That will look like a patch every time.

Very nice job! You probably know this but, if you take a damp sponge around the edges as the hot mud sets up, you can feather the edges into the existing texture and also lightly knock down ridges. Almost no sanding needed. 👍

@seeszm 3 года назад

Good old fashion butterfly patch. Nice work

@justinlangley8972 3 года назад

This technique is great but I've never seen anyone cut the patch round. Usually the hole being patched gets cut out larger into a square to get rid of any impact damage where the drywall blew out on the backside, but great work nonetheless. As long as it looks like the damage never happened and returns the structure of the wall back to normal then it's a good patch job

@ethelryan257 2 года назад

This was really good work. As an electrician, my hole patching is, fortunately, very limited but - been there, done that. One thing the 'do it square people' are missing is that you do *not* patch anything with a straight line, especially not in the middle of a flat wall. They eyes will catch even the slightest trace of a straight line. This handyman did it right. As to the negative stuff about the 'California' patch - sigh. It's a perfectly good method and absolutely solid.

@marks4470 2 года назад

It’s not a flat wall. It has texture, so there would be no straight line seen. Also, if you do it right on a “flat wall” you won’t see a line. This guy wasted a lot of time doing this.

@aab-el9bd 9 месяцев назад

Dead wrong on many levels. Just because the patch is a rectangle doesn't mean the paper flange surrounding it has to be square. Also, if you can see the line from a straight edge, why wouldn't you be able to see the seem from an irregular edge? You will see both. An irregular shape would look weirder.

@Vincent-S 3 года назад

That's seriously cool, I'm pretty far from a handyman with next to no experience outside of installing small sections of mouldings and making smal plant stands and boxes, so I never knew you could do it like that. The next time I have to patch drywall (did my first one last month, came out pretty well!), but don't have any studs to work with, I now know a good way to fix it up!

@shanedavison7473 Год назад

@DJ-xt5ez 2 года назад

Good job. You might find it easier however if you prime before you texture. This helps the paint not to flash and makes the knockdown part easier as it dries at a consistent rate. I know it adds one extra step to the process, but I found that and well-lit areas, especially on the ceiling, it is necessary to primer first.

Have always hated patch kits. For something 1x1" or less, I simply use a few coats of mud, for anything bigger it's always cutting the hole into a symmetrical square, two pieces of 1x2 in the wall, and new piece of drywall to match square hole tightly. Then it's very easy to fill and texture to an even finish.
