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!

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.

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.

@@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

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.

I enjoyed watching this video. You asked your viewers to let you know who we are . . . well, I'm a female who taught myself how to do renov's watching guys like you who take the time to make these videos to educate and help us tackle some home repairs. I am a female who decided to renovate my entire home. So far I have skimmed 2 rooms both walls and ceilings and now a 17 foot stairwell/hallway. By far the sketchiest but boy am I honing my own skills. Thank you so much Paul.

Nice one, thanks Paul. Currently embarking on a water damaged wall in a liquor store. A drain has been misting for a few years and has ruined bottom 6 inches from floor up. Opened up yesterday, cleaned up and letting dry out. Drain tube has been extended. Patching begins today.

WOW! Your work is so nice! I'm currently in the process of removing downstairs ceiling tiles due to an upstairs plumbing leak. I've decided to just replace the entire ceiling in the tiny downstairs so here I am on your page. I also found that someone had this plumbing problem before, however, instead of replacing the drywall, they put a piece of plywood and covered it with ceiling tiles. I think the furring was like a big version of a wooden paint mixing stick lol Honestly, it would have been easier to fix the problem the right way the first time lol I have to say, your work is very clean! Anyhow, I will be waiting for the ceiling to "demold" and dry out before putting in the new ceiling YAY fun. Thank you for the tips

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.

Hi Paul: Your drywall repair vid is GREAT. I am looking at a couple repairs at my mom's house. A hole in the wall just outside of the 1st floor bathroom...the damaged area also includes the hallway light switch. The other repair is a leaky ceiling in one of the 1st floor bedrooms (much like the repair featured in your vid). Your video seems to cover all of the basic points clearly and informatively.

I am a 68-year-old DIY and next week I have to do the exact same repair in my daughters' condo garage as her A/C condensate was not draining and when I had cleared the clog, the water overflowed the T junction and got the ceiling soaked. So I had to take out the section of drywall that was soaked along with the insulation and install a longer verticle drain pipe to prevent the rush of water from the A/C condensate bin from overflowing. That repair went extremely well, but now I need to replace the section of drywall that I took out and replace it with a new section, just like you just did! I have always been able to cover screw heads with mud but when it comes to filling in gaps, I haven't been that successful! I will try to track down the same tape that you used in the video and give it a try...again! Sometimes this old dog just is past any new training!
