nm, i didn’t watch the whole vid first
it is easier to cut a square patch then trace it on the wall then cut the hole, you don’t have to worry as much about squareness and such. But what you were patching looked like hittin it with some spackle would have done it
They go to the neighbors house to do reckless things +++Bob
My goodness the neighbourhood kid?What about your own kids.
good vid.
thanks for the video! It will help me alot in my home improvement.
Great video! I like the overlapping paper method; it should save a lot of time compared to taping around the patch. But a doorknob ding is probably one of the places where I’d be inclined to add some re-enforcement (a 1X3 under the patch and about 8 screws would probably be enough. When the patch is complete, I’d put a rubber bumper over it. Even if the patch is strong enough to withstand another hit, the bumper would probably be needed to protect to doorknob.
Glad to hear it! Any questions don’t hesitate to ask +++Bob
Great vid, just what I needed.
Thanks it was brief and to the point and informative.
You are welcome+++Bob
For larger holes,I posted a video response to this video directly below this one check it out+++Bob
Comment above+++Bob
As long as the sheet is still solidly anchored it can be patched. Sorry to hear about your bad luck.+++Bob
Yes,control your temper, DEFINITLY!+++Bob p,s. There are studs in that wall that could cause a trip to the hospital,far more expensive than a drywall patch.
Does this technique work on a larger hole?
I had some vandalism, and they knocked a sizable hole, about the size of a human head, roughly 2×2 in the ceiling. Can I patch it or should I replace the whole sheet?
this video is very helpful. i recently punched a hole in my wall due to frustration and i instantly regretted it. after watching this video i know what to do whenever this happens again. thanks
Thanks for this video!
This was the first video I made.I hope you have seen some improvement in video and audio since. This video has a pretty good search results and alot of people can find it. If I remake it it would be two years or more before as many people can find it like they can today.+++Bob

have a nice day..
Only when its wet once dry its integrity is fine!+++BOB
So you took the time to turn a home repair video into a nutty rant about immigration? You are what is referred to locally as ‘El Douche’
I agree with Archive. Structurally, you’ll end up with a significantly stronger patch by using a piece of wood that is slightly longer and narrower than the patch hole. Insert the wood into the hole, attach patch with screw into it and also put screws directly above and below the patch area so they all attach to the wood. The patch will be as strong as the surrounding drywall, while with your method you could easily press on the wall with your fingers and compromise the repair.
I believe what he is saying is simply make your patch first ,a little larger than your hole, then trace patch over hole and cut.This way it eliminates having to cut an exact patch to fit hole+++Bob
Hi. Thanks for your video. It’s awesome.
Can you explain what you and the other fellow said about tracing and squaring the patch, please? I don’t understand.
