I'm 35 and have been a carpenter for about 15 years now. Was in the union doing commercial work but now I'm doing residential. I like hanging commercial better cause it's a lot easier to finish cause usually they use acoustical ceilings so you usually just finish the walls which are hung vertically and bulkheads :) I've got my finishing so good to where I mostly just wet sponge and tape,block and finish in 2 coats alot of the time. I just need to work on some textures
This pro makes it look easy! I do this and it's a mess! Thanks Paul for a great video as usual
Hey there Ron!💥👊🏻 I really appreciate the kind words my friend. Thanks so much for watching and commenting! -Paul
I'm a DIY...living near the coast I have had my share of hurricanes... I am tired of paying the gougers for small repairs. I typically do woodworking but I'm crossing over to learn this
DIYer, have a few patch jobs to do. Matching ceiling and wall texture is my current obstacle. Thanks for your videos!
I'm partway into fixing a ceiling patch about the same size as this video thumbnail image. I first filled in the gap between the patch and ceiling with hot mud, by pushing the hot mud deep into the gap. I then built up the areas where the patch was recessed too deep as compared to the rest of the ceiling with more hot mud. Once the patch and surrounding ceiling was closer to being flush (but the patch still recessed) I used paper tape. I then switched to Plus 3 (I think the blue box?) to build up the patch to be level. I now need to prime and texture. I've never textured before.
Sounds like you got the right procedure!
Hey there Donald!💥👊🏻 what type of texture are going to have to match? -Paul
Y not use all purpose for gaps being it has glue already in it so u don’t have to worry about hot mud cracking behind the tape.
@@borys444 Using all purpose mud for filling any kind of wide or deep cracks is a pain in the butt. If it's deep it could take a couple of days to dry and still have a crack in it. Yes, it does have the necessary glue in it but it has extra water in it and should have a little extra water added to it before mudding. All this extra water has to evaporate before additional costs go on. It could be done if you want to add on an extra 2 to 4 days of work. Spend the extra $10-12 for a bag of Durabond and have the project done in a day or overnight instead of dragging it out. Life's too short to wait for mud to dry for days. Just sayin'😀
Diyer here. Jack of all trades, master of none. Currently getting ready to sheetrock my bathroom that for reasons I can't remember, I decided to gut, 😁
Given enough time I can get as good a finish as most pros put out. On the other hand if I had to do it for a living, I'd starve to death. I hate doing Butt joints and with a patch you have 4 of them to deal with. Thanks for the pointers, I may master them yet.
Sounds like we're brothers from different parents! I'd starve also....🍔
Man, do I feel your pain!
❤ im a diy but im new to alot of ceiling stuff. I have an old home that has popcorn ceilings that I hate. And I can't afford to pay someone to fix some cracks. I'm trying to learn the best way to either repair the popcorn ceilings or just scrape it off and skim coat it 🤔
Thank you for your videos ❤
Did a small demo of a closet, skim coated all the walls, painted it, now onto building shelves.
Repair my ceiling tomorrow, perfect timing!!!
That’s awesome Conor!👍🏻 Let me know if you run into any questions along the way! Thanks so much for watching and commenting my friend!😎 -Paul
Keep up the good info, been doing this same stuff for years, but still watch and learn! Ya can teach a old dog new tricks! lol
Right on David!💥👊🏻 I know that’s right! Always learning!🤓 Thanks so much for watching and commenting my friend! -Paul
#drywalltube -We are working on two large patches on a textured ceiling (it is not popcorn, looks like they used your skim coating a wall technique and painted the drywall on the ceiling but did not smooth it out). The ceiling has never been painted and we have back filled the joints as you have shown in this video (although we used a premix). We will not be able to work on it again for a few days and if is has not dried yet, we can work on it later. We are hoping to skim coat the ceiling to smooth it out (it will be a slow process since I am doing most of the work, obviously we are DIYers):-) Thanks for your videos, they are so helpful!!
Made this harder than it had to be. 1st of all use the correct size knife to start off. All exposed brown paper should be sealed prior to mud.
Okay great. I started texturing my laundry room walls last night. Gonna tape 2 corners today, scrape & knock down some ceiling texture & more wall texturing & have hubby drywall a hole in the ceiling. Good times ahead :) Thanks 👍👍
Wow Paivi! That’s awesome!👏🏻 Sounds like you’ve got it under control. Thanks so much for watching and commenting my friend!😎 -Paul
@@PaulPeck Hey thanks. Yeps I'm getting it :)
Have an old house built in the 50s and I got a few holes I got to take care of the drywall and there's like an inch thick so I got to make up a little bit a space with the half-inch board might have to use two of money toll I heard you could use a over the Collett up expansion foam and go in the cracks above it and Seal it together
Soooo glad DutyRon referred me I have learned a lot about drywalling and I needed to
Love DuryRon’s channel!🔥 I’m glad you’re learning from my videos Angela! Thanks so much for watching and commenting my friend!😎 -Paul
I'd love to hear more nitty gritty details. Like WHY use the skim coat blade to smooth instead of just the 12"? Or why not just use the 6" blade for the whole thing? I love learning about stuff like this from pros.
diyer. storm damage permeated bedroom ceiling and collapsed a portion. Cut a 4x12 swath out of it. I had just removed the popcorn ceiling, retextured and painted about a year ago. My question is the depth of the new wallboard vs existing with plaster and painted neighboring ceiling I guess I sand off some of it to get adhesion and spread the mud to achieve level, then do tape/finishing work? thanks for the vid.
I use a round bottom pan and one mixing blade from a kitchen mixer on a drill.
That sounds like a great way to git’er done!💥👊🏻 Thanks for watching and commenting man!😎 -Paul
Just say no to Crack. Lol. Another awesome video

DYIer here. Thanks for your videos!
DIYer repairing drywall in a 250 yr old house that has been destroyed by a tenant.I have never done drywall before. There are holes and missing parts of walls. Lots of dings and cracks. The house has not been cleaned for years. I am trying to reclaim it. There are crayon drawings all over. I have been washing and magic eraser scrubbing but almost hopeless. Im thinking skim coat over the crayon may help. What do you think?
Can I use this method for a large crack after my old house being leveled out by support beams being adjusted. I am a property owner, trying to dyi. Wish I saw your videos years ago, they are so informative
I'm working on a project almost exactly like this one, but not replacing a section - repairing a few seams that have failed (and no corner joint.) Oh, and outside. No directed water exposure (porch ceiling), but outside. So I'll have to research to see what to use for mud in that environment. Also, even though the drywall is all solid, there's a section that doesn't line up by about >1/8, which I'm assuming I'll need to run a wider joint to reduce the visual impact.

Thx for your videos....
On one repair, I put a coat of 45, after it dried, I did a coat of light weight Plus3. The light weight was hard for me to smooth out for some reason-I ended up sanding quite a bit of the light weight off. Can I go over this Plus3 light weight now with another coat of easy sand 45 quick coat?

Hey paul what compound good to use we sheetrock a hole room
Is there a reason that tape wasn't used for this repair?
Do you have to pre fill when it’s a flat ceiling? I have 3 ceiling repairs to do jus wondering if I have to prefill them all before putting the fuse tape
You don’t have to. But I would. You can use all purpose joint compound to pre-fill. That will just take a little more time to dry.👍🏻
@@PaulPeck thank you man i appreciate the reply
Another great video Paul!! Paul hey can I use the 20 min mud also? Thank you sir!!

@@PaulPeck this was perfect 👌. Thank you so much. Your videos have been amazing. My wife and I are renovating an older home and it had a heavy sponge swirl texture (the only way I know to explain it) it was beyond horrible, we literally thought we were going to have to replace the sheetrock. Thats how bad it was. I wish you could see it! I think you would scratch your head and say "what ,the hell!" Lol!! The previous owners even covered the baseboards and window trim with the same sponge applied swirl texture! Lol! I'm just going to replace all the trim with new. I sanded the high spots off the walls and that made it a lot better but it still had a bad texture,only now it was atleast all the same level with no peaks.I found your videos while looking for solutions and your skip coat technique is perfect for our situation. We didn't want textured walls and thought we would just have to live with a heavy knock down texture in order to cover the crappy swirl texture. I did a whole wall as a test to see if I could do your skim coat method and with the first coat it was almost perfectly smooth 👌! I can't believe how easy this is. My wife says it reminds her of frosting a cake ,only on walls! Lol! Anyways i wonder how many people needlessly replace sheetrock thinking they can't fix it. Thanks again! You have saved us so much money and time. Its amazing!
Hey Paul that ceiling you skimmed was that acoustic or just a nasty texture Rich retired drywall finisher
Do you not use tape?
Yes of course I do Chris! Here’s my next video from that ceiling repair: th-cam.com/video/Ar9CQCER0p8/w-d-xo.html I used FibaFuse drywall tape.👍🏻
Question about a different, slightly related project - joint tape pealing off in bathroom leading to an intersection with a tile wall where half the original tape continuing in the line is either under the tile or cut (likely the former). How to remedy that?
I would use a sharp blade on a razor knife and cut the tape as close to the tile as you can. Then, skim out that area a couple times tight to the tile. Prime (or touch up mud and spot prime) > caulk the transition to the tile > Paint. 👍🏻 Let me know. -Paul
@@PaulPeck Thanks! That's a future project as I'm in the middle of a ceiling repair that doesn't look like your work. Definitely won't be featuring mine on your channel ;-)
What a mess! Had everything all prepped and ready for tape (using FibaFuse, which was hard to find) and it's looking like I'm building quite the distinct hump with the tape showing through after the first coat. Doesn't look like I can attach a photo.

Quick question, how come you didnt have to treat those brown paper spots to stip bubbling or blisters? Thanks in advance
We had a new slider door installed into a former solid wall. Installer finished exterior but the interior drywall has 7+" missing drywall from where wall door was studded in to existing studs.
Is there a video addressing this issue?
Tomorrow I have to fill a 3 by 4 foot hole behind a toilet. The existing wall is lath and plaster, I haven't seen the job yet but the owner wants me to fill the hole with drywall. We'll see what happens.
I find that Bin primer by zinzer works much better on stains .
BIN is definitely good stuff no doubt about it!👍🏻 I appreciate you watching and commenting Lou!😎 -Paul

Wat is hot mud please reply
It’s a quick setting joint compound that comes in a powder form that you mix up yourself.👍🏻 I hope this helps. -Paul

Right on Richard!💥👊🏻 I really appreciate the kind words! Thanks so much for watching and commenting!😎 -Paul
I’m a tile guy by trade but I tend to do entire bathrooms. (Some total guts) I learned how to drywall from a guy who has done it for over 40 years.
When you were coating the top of the wall why do you pull to the right first? I also notice that you do something similar when skim coating walls. 😯👀👍😊🇺🇸
Love this content
That’s what I’m talking about Mary! Thank you!😎 -Paul
I may be the only one who does this, but I use Gorilla Glue in my drywall patches. Coat both mating surfaces, come back in about 3 hours to shave off the expanded glue, tape and spackle.
Yup ur the only one who does this..
I’ve been subscribed, great channel, great videos!
My husband and I are diy’ers. We have an issue with our garage ceiling. There are 3 cracks. After getting in the attic we found that when the drywall was installed incorrectly. It was tape and muddled without screwing it to the studs. Unfortunately there is nothing to screw to. My husband thought he could fix it by applying mud ( which was old and somewhat dried out).
About a year later it cracked again. He feels that if he sands it, tape and apply the proper mud all would be good. I said it wouldn’t work and we would be back at square one. My idea is to get into the attic cut 2x4’s place and attach them between the beams and then screw with drywall screws. Mud tape and mud again. He shot me down with my idea. Please help.
I have pictures. Not sure how to attach
He should listen to his much smarter wife!
Hey Paul, just to let you know, I'm a retired pharmacist. I just like to do drywall work! Yeah, crazy right! Both my kids HATE it. I'd like to say that I would like to do it for money, but I'm not that fast... Decently good, yes; but certainly not fast.😉#drywalltube
My boy! Paul Peck!
Hey Fernando!💥👊🏻 How are you doing man? -Paul
@@PaulPeck pretty good loving the drywall I did in my garage. For fun but it looks good! Your videos helped. How's it going with you Paul?
I like using 20 minute mud. What is the advantage to using the 45 minute mud? I'm a contractor doing residential handyman work.
I think he's using 45 minute to show the average homeowner that anybody can do it. If your good/quick enough and the area is small enough, sure, use 20 minute mud. Or if you're really daring, try 5 minute LOL 😆 HURRY, it's starting to flash!!!
Great tips,is it better to mud before taping on most repairs?
Prefill with quickset is recommended for all butt and repair joints and will cause you less in return calls for returning cracks and tape bubbling. Don't tape with the quickset though cause it doesn't have enough glue in it to properly adhere the tape to the substrate. Prefill not necessary for tapered joints unless the gap is larger than 3/16" to 1/4", then prefill with quickset and tape as usual.

I got all bathroom I got do that too
Measuring the 45 min. ProForm Quick Set Lite proportions...so you don't pull your hair out, think your crazy or stupid 🤨!! With BS and MS Degrees, I understand math and measurement. The ProForm (National Gypsum Co, Charlotte, NC) folks failed to provide the critical info on the bag and would not tell me even though I am an NC resident. So, what you have to know for good mixing results is that 4 cups of dry mix = 1 pound and the correct portion of H2O is 1.27 cups to each pound. The approximate yield of prepared "mud" is 18 square feet (at approximately 1/8th inch thickness) per pound; you get about 333 sq feet of "mud" per 18 pound bag. After you do this measuring thing dozens, hundreds, thousands of times, you'll probably be good at visually estimating ("eyeballing") these proportions. Good measuring and good "mudding".😉
You did a fantastic job Paul! We're currently repairing a few spots in the Family Room.
So far it's a great job, much better then the ones we did in the bathroom 😆

Why this drywall product? Why not ready mixed joint compound ? Thank you. S.
The all purpose will shrink too much in these types of applications. You could use it, but you're going to have to wait overnight for it to dry/shrink before putting another coat on and letting that dry also, so your just gonna drag the project out way longer than you want 😜. Buy the bag, use what you need and keep the rest sealed and dry as best you can and it will last for years!
Exactly Terry! 👍🏻 I really appreciate you helping out in the comments man!😎 -Paul

I’m working on old ceilings with cracks and loose tape replacing is not in budget diy
Thank you for the very useful video. What would you recomend for the cracks on the walls. I live in CA and have a continuous cracking problem. Thank you
Move? No seriously, these are gonna forever be a pain in your area of the country. Sorry. If it's flatwork, enlarge the crack out a little with a razor knife and use the quickset (5, 20, 45 whatever you want). After it dries, use paper or Fibafuse tape with setting or all purpose mud. NO FIBERGLASS MESH TAPE!!! You will be repairing that again before you finish. Then you'll have to use a couple of coats of finishing mud tapered WAY out and your little crack will probably be at least 12 to 24 inches wide when you're done. If you don't go out that far, your wall is gonna look like a roller coaster, especially if it's lit up from an angle. If the crack is a corner crack, you might want to try a paintable elastomeric caulk and see if that can take the stress. Good luck 😃🤞.
@@terryq9966 Thank you very much Paul!
Exactly what my approach and recommendations would be Terry. You have obviously been doing this for awhile or have had a good teacher!👍🏻🤓

Hi Paul. I'm a DIYer. Looking for more info on skip trowel. Thanks. #DrywallTube
I'm looking to repair a wall with multiple holes in in with skip trowel.
Why not just tape while doing the hot mud? I prefer a slighly convex pull scrapper for smoothing between coats or even removing and smoothing old texture before skim coat. Jack of all trades master of some. Retired US Navy.
There's really not enough glue in the quickset to properly adhere the tape to the substrate. Some guys will add some white glue to the quickset to solve this problem. I just wait a bit until the quickset starts to get into that pliable/hard phase, them tape away with taping mud.
Terry Q I havent done tons of rock work but i always use hot mud to bed the tape then use premix to finish and i havent had any problems. Are you specifically talking about for doing a repair doing this or even when doing mud and tape on new work with tapered joints?
@@GregariousAntithesisUsing quickset on butt joints is even recommended by the drywall mfgr. You take a greater risk of some type of tape failure using hot mud as a setting compound. It really doesn't have enough glue in it to make the tape fully adhere to the substrate and the layers above it. Repairs like this fall into this category. Tapered joints can just be done with setting or all purpose muds unless that gap is larger than the 3/16"-1/4" that I mentioned. Then fill that large gap with hot mud and proceed as usual.
