Good job Leah. Im sure your mentor showed you this method for a faster & efficient solution regd dry wall fix. It wouldve been nice to show viewers applying compound , sand and paint over as an overall DIY video.
Surprised the mock-up didn't have a piece of baseboard. I suppose it's too much to ask but I wonder if any builder (or obsessive homeowner) ever puts a piece of plywood spanning the studs where the doorknob point of contact will be, before the drywall goes up; intent is to limit damage to a dent instead of a hole.
every door stop I've seen has a corresponding plate on the wall...the way u did it the stopper itself will end up puncturing the wall so ur trading a big hole for a small one but still a hole
Just hire someone every 5 years to fix and maintain your house. It's way cheaper than buying tools. No such thing as scrap drywall unless you know contractors. You have to buy their smallest sheet. Paint? Ha! Good luck painting just that area to blend with the original paint.
Wheat do you think the person you pay to maintain your house does? This is exactly how to fix it and it really isn't that expensive.... and common man... who the fuck doesn't already have a drill?
The only thing you save by not doing it yourself is time which is good if you have good job that pays & can afford to pay for it... You dont really save money by hiring someone you most likely lose money unless the person is a crackhead... & if you are on TH-cam looking this up you got a lot of time on your hands..
It depends, I have scrap drywall and wood in my basement and I'm not a contractor nor do I know one. Most big chain hardware stores sell small or odd pieces of drywall for a low price (pieces that break in shipping, etc). If you still have the original paint it should match no problem, if not just take the piece of wall you cut out and take it to get it matched at the hardware store. Shouldn't be any problem and usually you can get a sample size of any color. This really is simple for any average person.
Way too much work. I use the new tapered plug drill (saw?) and it takes two minutes. Repair plugs come in packs of three (boxes of 30 for property mangers/owners). It was at the Made in America Show and the tool is $20 or so, invented by a guy who decided it was time for a good way to repair drywall. I think the name is Wall-EZ.
I love your voice Leah! It’s so calming.
Thank you so much Leah! You are awesome at explaining with such a clear, confident voice! You really inspire confidence!! 🙌🏼

Great tip I use it today, thanks for the information good looking out. From David Lee Backwater University MOA HolmesColeon

Leah's tips are always terrific and extremely helpful. However, in regards to this fix, what if your wall isn't hollow (drywall)?
does anyone know what plate she used to fix the hole?
what to do if the door stop makes a hole again?
place a bumper where the handle contacts the dry wall so that the wall is not in direct contact with the handle anymore.
How convenient to have a stud
Hmmm, I've only seen those door stops attached to the baseboard, not the door. I guess it really doesn't matter.
Leah is mint, does she have a channel
Isn't the door stop meant to be attached to the wall not the door. Otherwise the doorstop could make a hole in the wall just like the door handle did.
“Dang it”

Mine works too. I used the Woodprix plans and performed it without any problems.
What the hell....yeah, you were shocked when she spoke too

And let shit sit for 5 years broken? I think not.
