How to repair a drywall ceiling hole fast and easy!
In this step by step drywall repair video tutorial I'll be showing you how to repair a drywall ceiling hole on a drywall ceiling. First I'll be installing the drywall after I square up the circular hole on the ceiling repair. I'll also show you a few tips and tricks from cutting the drywall, I'll install furring strips to attach the new piece of drywall. Then I'll show you how to use a drywall tape called FibaFuse to finish all the seams of the drywall repair with joint compound and the FibaFuse drywall tape.
From the finishing to sanding I'll show you several of my drywall tips and tricks for doing the bedding the FibaFuse, doing the mud work and sanding the drywall patch on this bathroom remodel where I also installed new drywall, finished the drywall and skim coated the entire bathroom ceilings and walls.
The Fibafuse drywall tape is a fiberglass composite that's a much stronger drywall tape compared to paper tape and fiberglass mesh tape and your tape joints are much easier to get flatter in my opinion. I bedded the Fibafuse with a 6 inch drywall taping knife and some USG all-purpose joint compound that comes with the dark green lid.Thanks for watching this how to repair a drywall ceiling hole video! -Paul

A few weeks before having to go into the army (I was drafted) I put in attic stairs for my mom and dad. My foot slipped off a stud and I fell through the sheetrock to the floor 8 feet below. My first thoughts weren’t of being hurt. The first thing I thought of was hoping I broke an arm so I wouldn’t have to report at the army induction center. My mom who was watching me work was thinking the same thing I was. We both laughed as she helped remove all the sheetrock and insulation off of me. I spent the entire time I was in the military in Nike Hercules Missile classes. The longest class was for fire control maintenance, which was a system to control the launches of missiles. When I was drafted I didn’t want to go to Vietnam so I signed up for the safest army class they had. I knew there were no Nike Hercules missiles in any war zones. They were strictly defensive weapons. I ended up becoming honor graduate in an international class that included Germany, Italy, Spain and South Korea. I became great friends with the South Koreans. They were all black belts in karate. Whenever I went to Juarez to drink and party I usually took a few of them with me. They were excellent and fast! While hanging out in a large hallway between classes I was joking with one of the South Koreans taunting him and saying he didn’t know karate. Even though he was 8 feet away on the other side of the hall the next thing I felt was his foot against my throat. He had me pinned against the wall. I couldn’t believe he was that fast. I couldn’t believe anyone could be that fast. I was glad we were friends.

Thank you for this video! I found it yesterday and replaced a 30x30 hole in my ceiling. I purchased the mesh/ green fiber fuse by mistake. I'm going to return and get the right one.

We removed the wood stove from our kitchen and since I cannot find anyone who will come fix this ceiling hole for me, I will be doing it myself. Your instructional video is VERY helpful. I just finished mudding and taping the walls of the kitchen and my next job is to tackle the ceiling and (unfortunately) retexture it to match the rest. Wish me luck! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us.

I'm taking an old heat lamp out of a bathroom, making the ceiling good and then cutting in two downlights - I work on a desk, so this video was perfect, thanks Paul!
