Nice shout out to Ben "Vancouver Carpenter". I learned most of what I know from that dude. Due to his tutoring, I've done several level 5 drywall jobs over the past 15 years. And don't kick yourself in the butt about your drywall skills. Like you said, you're not a professional drywaller. You're doing it as efficiently as you can, and that's truly good enough. Nice work, brother.

@bulletproofhandyman 15 дней назад

Thank you sir!

@davidskaggs9914 4 месяца назад

I like how you keep your drywall repair kit all together...I do the same thing. Got a husky bin just for doing patch work. I'm working at a house for the next 5-7 days replacing all the baseboards, fixing other guys terrible drywall repairs. Putting in all new plugs, lights, ceiling fans. Already replaced the water heater and cleaned the AC coils. I get most of my work from real estate agents after inspection is done. I appreciate your videos, advice, and experience.

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

That's awesome David. I imagine we'd work well together!

@6mmtactics385 4 месяца назад

Love this video. The kit was mind opening, as i have most of my stuff in a bucket but a also have more knives, probably going to trim back what i carry. But the ziplock bags where the real mind blowers!!! I did notice that at the end of the video your right eye was irritated, i am bless with the “always have something fall in my eye syndrome”, as such I always ware eye protection when ever doing anything that involves me looking up.

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

I agree it would be better to wear eye protection. However a chunk of something got in my eye 2 days ago and won't come out. I'll probably go to urgent care tomorrow if it doesn't come out by the morning. I'm glad the Ziploc trick was useful!

Definitely a fan of Vancouver carpenter, I have also been watching a lot of Mr drywall’s videos. Also here in Arizona but his methods for doing a one day patch and texture are great and I’ve learned a lot. I’ve picked up a lot on the different textures for our markets too.

Great video! Nice to see some videos you do some work. I love the bag idea on these small repairs. Much more clean. I have a quick tip. Sorry to be the type to comment a tip… I just love this idea that I use daily with these repairs. Get one of those big sponges from Home Depot. Can get a 4 pack for cheap. Those things work AMAZING to do a sand less smooth finish. I get it nice and wet and smooth everything out. It works fantastic. Try it just once and you’ll fall in love with how nice it makes it. Then you can texture and be done. I just have made my repairs much more nice with finishing with a sponge. And it’s quick and clean.

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

Please do leave tips here, that's what the channel is about, sharing information instead of hoarding it for fear of competition. I actually use a sponge for flat-ish and knockdown matches.

@user27278 4 месяца назад

Ray, i wanna criticise sooooo much but then again even though my skills are better, you are indeed the man in the Arena and im not 😅

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

I understand the urge. I want badly to make videos about blissfully perfect repairs but but my clients show me what they value by sending tons of patches when I give them this product and they send less when I do higher quality work and charge higher quality prices.

@-clif1987 4 месяца назад

I appreciate this comment. I’m starting out first couple years but this year more serious. This is great advice to not over do it with clients. Give them what they are willing to pay for and not let my perfectionist personality get the best of me.

@bf1610 4 месяца назад

Really good video, appreciate the information and demonstration on the repair. I really like your drywall kit! I have been in the process of putting a kit together myself and this video was very useful! In other videos can you incorporate the kits when you do your repair videos?

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

Yes. Previously I was going to make the kits part of a different series but I can see that y'all value the kit being in the video. I'll start making videos with the kit included and then I'll just edit the kit portion and post that as an additional second standalone video for people who only want to see how to build kits

@Dean-Sala 4 месяца назад

My oppinion, if you are starting a handyman business, learning drywall repair is a must. It's not that hard for the handyman And good money. There are tons of vids on how to do. Watch Daryl the finisher vids. I was completely afraid at first, but I had a couple clients that let me experiment, I gained confidence. Look for paint in the garage, etc, for touch up. I actually like the texture spray cans. I have learned to tweak the spread to get it close. If you don't like, you can wipe off and try again. You get the idea.

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

I agree. Drywall repair and being a handyman are almost the same thing. Nobody really wants a handyman who can't repair drywall.

@adammullins8390 4 месяца назад

I have a similar setup, started using ziplock bags a few years ago.

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

That's cool!

@pauldardeau5532 4 месяца назад

Great video Ray! What were you standing on while doing the patch? I love the idea of using the ziploc bag for the hot mud. I tried it once (was not a ziploc brand) and it was a disaster. Watching you do it makes me want to try it again, or at least start practicing that method. Thanks for making a very valuable video!

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

It was a short painters bench. Just the right height!

@alphapimp 4 месяца назад

Have you ever tried the texture in a can from HD or Lowes?

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

I have. They're honestly not bad for small patches. I wouldn't use them to do a whole wall.

@zappafan3473 4 месяца назад

how do you deal with a repair like this if the existing ceiling is heavily textured or popcorn? how do you scrape down the high spots between coats? thanks ray!

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

First, I would try to sell the client on removing all of the popcorn ceiling, but if they want to keep the popcorn then you have to remove all of the popcorn around the repair to have a nice flat surface to start with. Problem is then you have to match the popcorn and that's somewhat doable, but it's never going to look quite right.

@stewmeat9261 4 месяца назад

unrelated question. I used your link for Jobber. Thanks. When customers pay with credit card on a Jobber invoice do they pay 2.8% and 30 cent transaction fee? Or are you billed for those fees in Jobber. If you pay them do you pass them on in your pricing?

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

Those fees, generally speaking, are common among all processors. You might find somebody who can save you a few pennies, but the same applies to when you run your credit card at Walmart. That comes out of your pocket, not theirs. It's just part of the cost of doing business and accepting credit card payments. You just have to look at your client base and figure out if you can afford to bump your prices up by 2.8%, which is basically nothing. It's the difference between a job costing $100 or a job costing $102.80.

@westbankboy7524 4 месяца назад

Thank you for the tips. As a property maintenance tech I’ve been looking for alternative ways to reduce sanding and dust accumulation. What would be your process for roof leak patches as such on popcorn ceiling. And yes, I said popcorn 🙄 😂. In best regards!

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

Well, first and foremost, I would try to convince the client to let me remove all of the popcorn ceiling and just retexture everything to something more conventional. If that fails then the only solution is to remove the popcorn for 12 to 16 inches all around the patched area and then put new popcorn on. Of course, the obvious problem here is that the new popcorn is never going to actually match the old popcorn, that just isn't possible. I've seen some very experienced tradesmen be able to get a close match but never a real match.

@westbankboy7524 4 месяца назад

@@bulletproofhandyman YES, new popcorn won’t match heavy 70’s popcorn. Noted. Do you have any quick tips or removal for painted popcorn ceilings that have been painted with a non flat paint such as gloss. I know it sounds crazy but I’ve ran ran across it (even oil base). I would assume the “easiest solution” would be a electric 9” sander with 80-100 grit.

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

I've done that job, with semi-gloss paint over popcorn. I sprayed everything down with a garden sprayer, the entire house, normally you spray a section of a room and then take it off immediately. But because of the paint I had to spray the entire house probably five times until sections started getting soft enough for me to scrape off. I would scrape for a little while and then go spray all the hard sections and then scrape for a little while and then go spray the hard sections and I kept that up for 2 days. If I had to go back and do it again I would use a very large disc sander with 80 grit paper, but I would only use this to break openings into the popcorn for the water to seep through. I would not try to actually sand everything off down to the drywall. You'll just ruin the drywall paper and it will become an even worse mess. I would run the disc sander over everything just enough to open up the popcorn behind the paint so that I had plenty of holes for the water to seep through and then I would proceed to spray everything down with water multiple times and start removing. Your drywall paper is going to be very wet after all of that soaking so be careful not to rip it. If you haven't removed popcorn ceiling before, go watch some videos on it. If it's not painted, it's very easy to spray down with water and then it comes off like butter. If you already knew all of this then I apologize, but it didn't want to risk not answering the question fully.

@westbankboy7524 4 месяца назад

@@bulletproofhandyman Thanks for the explanation and time! I’ve done a bit of both. We would scrape the surface to create pores and coat with warm water. Just a bit of work and very time consuming. I suppose a drywall sander would work well.

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

I would definitely scrape rather than sand if you're able to break through it that way.

@johnhubbard6262 4 месяца назад

I am all about systems, love your kit, though I thought you were really pulling my leg when you mixed the mud in a baggie. I never judge the technique, just the final product, that being said you have more skill than you think you do, paper tape and 5min mud can be a real pain in the ass if your not moving fast or use to much pressure and starve that tape, you have it down pat. You are just one step away from only needing one skim coat on average, by cheating on the first one, but it works better with 20min. Just feather that edge when you embed the tape, then when it just starts to go gray do a skim right over the top with your remaining mud. You may have a few times when you need another lite skim in spots, but it will be nothing and you can texture right over it before it even sets. Have you ever used Hamilton? I was a USG guy for 20 years until I worked a job that was Hamilton, its the difference between creamy fluffy butter and cement. P.S. I just know the rust on that return vent behind you was bugging the crap out of you.

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

Thank you for all of that awesome advice. John! I feel like I should go ahead and give Hamilton a try. I don't know where I would buy it, but I assume I can probably jump on Amazon right now and order a bag so I think I'm going to do that. The way you describe it, it's probably worth checking out.

@johnhubbard6262 4 месяца назад

NOTE: Hamilton is Wespac Here in So Cal it's at HD, but it used to be Lowes you can never tell with those guys. Best thing about it is if a patch does not get pulled tight and needs a sand, a wet grout sponge smooths it out like cake frosting, your not doing that with USG. I use a LACO texture gun, and the guys at LACO (Fantastic guys, they work in the field every day, and still talk to you as much as you need if you need support) they pointed me to Hamilton/Westpac Green Dot for Spray Texture, I went from an Apartment hack to able to match most trac homes (I still suck though lol) I still keep 45 min USG though for the occasional fire envelop that is not getting finished, it sticks to anything, and the drywall will break before your joint does. @@bulletproofhandyman

@johnhubbard6262 4 месяца назад

Nobody shares more than you do, I wonder if folks even understand what your pricing guide is worth, it takes a whole lot of trial and error to reach that level.

It is definitely an ongoing process that never ends. Tweaking a thousand little parameters all the time. Thank you for joining in on the project of sharing instead of gatekeeping. I truly appreciate it. I've already learned from you on this channel.

@McCormick100 4 месяца назад

@@bulletproofhandyman nobody would charge $2000 for 4 hrs worth of taping and nobody would pay that. And charging a fair price should be part of your mission sir.

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад

You're incorrect, thousands of them are charging exactly that every day. Most of them will refuse the job altogether because it's not "big enough". I find my pricing to be fair, for my clients, which are business people who are happy to pay a premium to have a job done right, on time, by a professional, who will back up his work. Every client of mine owns a rental home (or 12) and they value speed and reliability over affordability. They voluntarily pay the premium for the peace of mind that their rental home isn't going to be a nightmare with handymen hacking the place to death.

@Chillkayaker 4 месяца назад

The thing about service is the owner/manager can say “no that’s too expensive” and call someone else, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Being an owner/operator you can dictate your prices. Too busy? Charge more to encourage the decision to go elsewhere. Slow? Charge less to get the job. Want it done sooner? Pay for the stress too.

@bulletproofhandyman 4 месяца назад
