How to repair larger holes in your plasterboard walls using products such as GIB® Patch Board and GIB Tradeset®.
I think we all know why we are all here today... ;) rage mode rampage aruond the house? I smashed a hole in the wall after losing a game of fifa.
same rofl
Too accurate
lol now it's DIY mode
Yeah same big hole in the door and a good kick to a wall
+dragonxxx261 my shit was really I didn't get this job offer I really wanted :(
I'm here because I raged and punched my poor wall who did nothing wrong except being in the wrong place at the wrong time
Your lucky that it wasn't right where a 2x4 stud was or you could have shattered your knuckles.
Walls always appear to have done nothing.....wah, we are just innocent walls doing nothing.....but sometimes they freaking ask for it!!
@@daverlbYeah, it’s like they don’t expect some push back for their closing in on us shenanigans!
One thing to note is to never ever place your mud can/bucket underneath or near your project, for if you do it when your scraping or sanding, the hard granular dried mud falls into it, & then you can never seem to get another smooth coat out of it as it will mix w/ the wet stuff, scratching & scraping it as you apply it. Now I'm not saying you would do that but the fact i did that is just my point of warning those that might also do that. Thanks for your time & how to do it.
Who else is here bc they raged and put their foot through the wall?
Hammer fisted.
Maladaptive Daydreamer elbowed, punched, hammer-fist, and punched again for a large 2Ft x 2Ft hole combo
Alex Martinez Yeah. Anger isn't fun. But nor is hitting a stud, so...

"I've waited 24 hours" **still wears same outfit**
You never done that before?
They’re his work clothes
Tay Rey you can see that the stain on his pants are gone.
I was thinking the same thing nasty fool change your clothes at least the shirt
Tay is hot
Always, always, prime drywall patch before painting.
take him to fix small hole in 5 days
Using a heat gun will significantly reduce waiting times and personally i think the tape is unnecessary, it will protrude from the wall and not make a flush patch.
Also you must use undercoat before painting topcoat otherwise you'll always see a shodow of where the patch is and eventually will peel.
Paint shops never make perfect colour match so its better to repaint the wall, unless you dont care too much about a slightly off colour touch up on the wall.
Yup.. this is me, I'm going to be undercoating the patch piece and then repainting the whole ceiling. I removed a manhole.
Re-roll your whole wall, the way paint is, you can see the two tone patch in certain lighting. This is coming from experience :)
Lol it was wet you troll
+Vic Vegas not a troll, but a seasoned professional painter ☺
Vic Vegas paint tends to darken over time specially bright colours I agree with him you should paint the whole wall
pmsl 😂😂 give it time to dry you wont see no 2tone... if you use a brush thats different...
Pretty sure you need to apply a primer paint coat on the patch and then you'll have to paint the wall from corner to corner so you can't see the patch difference
Totally agree, a sealer of some sort will be required.
When that paint dries you'll realize you should have primed it first..
thought this was an avert for glue, normal people use wood and screws lol
This is the most professional "how to" video I've seen on TH-cam. It is exactly what I was looking for and now I'm confident I can repair the holes in the gib.
I broke my hand punching my wall today
Pro-tip: Use a stud finder first.
try2bcool
i fixed the wall and your comment made me smile alot :)
+try2bcool Hilarious!!! I was thinking the same thing!!!
so am i the only one here cause my dog chewed a hole in my wall
no sir your not 😁😁😁 its 2-0..my German Shepherd 2,wall 0..he chewed two big ase holes smh
your not alone why im looking this shit up too
How did he do that?
My dog also chewed a hole in my wall!
my dog has chewed a hole along.with all of the corners and pulled.the trim off in most places. we have a lot of fixing to do.
New Zealand? This guy at work always says Gib......... I'm going to make the same video, only start to finish in an hour. Its my challenge.
I think I might have to replace a door and fix 2 holes on the wall. It would have been cheaper if I smashed a cup on the floor instead.
That dude just assured that I will never take the time to patch a hole in my drywall.
Easy way is often best. Just a little patience. Thanks for a great tutorial. (I have watched a couple of others - where they use too many screws!, Which could be confused later on for electrical wiring etc). I think your job is the best repair I have seen. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, I enjoyed the vid. You made that look easy. I know from experience it won't be that easy when I try it.
Thanks for posting.
.
In the right sort of light, that patch repair will stand out like dogs gonads, because the product GIB Tradeset® is on the surface of the wall, by 2 millimeters or there about.
.
The right sort of living room lamp will show that 2 millimeters up, well.
I have that very same effect on my ceiling in the bathroom !
.
Thanks for posting.

Cheers

del-boy.
You need to prime it before applying any finish. Then spot prime and repaint. If not it will flash
Was that a wire brush he was using to dust off? 😬
So much overkill for a small hole.
Cut a square out of a new piece of plasterboard use this as a template to neaten up the hole.
Place a length of scrap timber like a piece of skirting behind the hole (use 2 or more pieces if required)
Make sure the timber overhangs the hole by at least 3 inches.
Screw through the plasterboard fixing the timber to the back of the wall. Seat the new piece of plasterboard in the hole and fix to the timber.
tape the edges and plaster. 2 hour job at max.
Top tip use natural wood as its easier to screw in to, not ply or chipboard.
Best video I've watched.
I guess everyone has their own way.. I dont exactly disagree with using a back block but I would've deff screwed the block in.. Let alone the hole is damn near 16" already why not cut it to brake on each stud and do it rite.. New piece has no screws.. Yeah scrape off the bigger clumps but you should deff sand it the first time also so you dont have any runners. It won't crack instantly but give it a few weeks maybe months if, me personally, i use a primer instead of a finish coat of paint to see any imperfections..maybe not on something that small but hey like I said everyone has their own way, then theirs codes haha
Well done my friend, great video. I was working a night shift and usually at break times me and my colleagues play darts. I got beat, lost my temper and put a hole in the wall, ( my manager not amused).. Thanks to u I can put it right!!!!
😂
this fool does to much just to fix a lil hole on wall lol
could have been fixed in 10 minutes
Why don't all builders make this much effort? Cheers for vid, need to undo a few cowboy build jobs :-( So this all helps lol nice one :D
Well done that man and now off to the store to get the stuff looking fwd to fixing the hole...
What did you use first the back block? And is there no need for screws when fixing to a stud? Cheers🙂
...finally someone made me understand!!! :)
Im here coz me n my wife were getting freaky our backboard ended up putting a hole in the wall
Excellent instructions! Many thanks!
So well explained; can't understand the 221 who gave it the thumbs down.
I had a fight with my dad. I got mad. :(
Same..I kicked in a piece of my wall bc we had a huge fight.. he didnt find out till 3 months after I kicked it in opps but my mom knew
+Destiny Faith
Wow,I hope your dad beat the shit outta you. But most American parents to soft with their kids. If I would had made holes on the wall. Poor me my mom and dad would take turns with the belt. That's why I never did any shit like this. But Mexican parents are more about kicking ass.
you made that look easy. thanks for the lesson.
Literally why I’m here. Two huge holes on my teenager’s room and non of them know how it happened... 😑
I can't believe my kids had a ECW match in my house no the walls are full of holes
A very nice video an explanation.
I've got to cut a section of plasterboard out to try and repair a blocked heating system pipe.
Wish me luck!
furniture put hole and large indent, broke tape holding 4x8 piece together. What is the exact name of that glue you are using to attach dry wall support and then drywall. I guess I have to cut out an extremely large piece and replace it. Help for glue name and do I need to do that?
That's not a large hole, ehehehe
a list of the tools and materials used would be helpful
what, no primer.
primer is so over-rated
It might be a paint + primer in one. Those do exist.
It’s plaster boards u don’t need it
Rough sex got out of hand
It is very professional, although for the amateur, I would recommend using plus 4 instead of powdered product. It takes a long time to dry, but easier to use.
I'm that teenager so now I'm gonna fix the wall myself
Strange that you need to cut a large square hole to fix a small round one. Most of these so called plaster repair experts here on TH-cam make a small job look like a big task. Cutting a clean circle around the damage and back blocking would of been more sensible.
no primer b4 finishing coat ?
he isn't painting a car there is no need for primer, plus 4 is basically the primer
Hey pal. Thanks for the video. I think you should have primed it however before the blue paint was put on. No?
FFS... 2-in-1 paint and primer people... look it up.
what was used to stick the back block on??
I am not sure what "biologically you're a man" has anything to do with fixing a wall, but I liked the video. Thanks!
*ТОЖЕ ТАК ЖЕ ДЕЛАЛ И НОРМ ДЫРЫ КАК БУТТО НЕ БЫЛО*
shouldn't you cut the repair panel first and then trace it onto the wall, so it fits perfectly ?
It is advisable to leave a 5mm gap around the edge of the plasterboard and the repair patch. This gives you a little more "play" will ensure that the fit is not too tight.
Not fixing this in two hours. Fuck.
I'll definitely use this video as a reference for home repairs. Thank you.
Thanks from the UK! This showed me the hole my fucknut of a son just made isn't serious.
I'm still bloody angry, mind.
Plasterboard is so weak you only have to flick it and it dents straight away. They should make walls stronger
glue?...how about some screws
This dude really knows how to Rip people off - Big time. Thanks, Biff.
my guy didn't even use primer
@aliecollins I have the same problem, I think it normally takes a day or two from what iove watched on youtube, but my dads home in.... 15 minutes. So yeah. I'm fucked. lmao
The only reason why I'm HERE is because my "PUPPY" made a hole on the wall.!
My plumber was looking for pipe leeks and went behind the bathroom wall and into the room behind it and the wall. He cut two rectanglar boxs in the walls to look at the pipes. He found no problems there and left those two holes there. He went on to find the problem elsewhere.
How do I repair the damage he did? Can I use those square cuts he made and repaste them back?
Check out our new tool 🔵👍🔵
Save time, screw wood battens in, fit new panel, use wide spatula to fill smooth as poss. Come back after lunch, sand smooth & paint.
Don't fix it put a poster over it. Personally I prefer to screw timber back blocks then screw plaster to it. Otherwise you will waste 3 days fixing a small hole. A hole like that can be fixed with three coats of plaster in under 2 hours
who came here because you got mad, and decided to punch or kick the wall, now you in trouble. now, trying to fix it.......
@metalwaffle94 yeah I put a hole in my wall years ago and its still there, its a really big hole so it will take a while to fix, need a bigger drywall piece
All these videos are from the UK why do they have more holes in the wall than other countries?
@chris92019 lol, seeing that teenagers search this up a lot? i don't blame him... I'm 17 hahahahaha
I need to see my dentist...
@6263035451 its a good job, fresh paint always looks different than when it is dry. It always blends in seemlessly when you let it dry. Unless there were smokers in that room.
I live in a apartment building and I can't replace the wall areas that have big holes in it
I literally have to tape it up with wall tape and plaster
However it doesn't plaster up quite well I have to plaster it up the second time to get it perfectly smooth
I have little areas where I plastered up the big holes but the middle part is pushed in a bit which I can't fill up until it's dry
Is GIB available in Australia? I will do my searches.
So around July I was in bed and I was trying to remember my password for my IPhone and I couldn't remember and it locked me out and I kicked my wall with the heel of my foot and there's been a hole there for almost a year. I put a large 3D sticker of my little brothers over it and I put my Xbox in front of it. I'm eventually going to move to another room in my house that's bigger "the guest room" and I'm gonna need to fix that hole before I leave 😁
I just punched a hole in my basement drywall, right after I searched on google "how to repair a punch hole"
Yeah right a teenager did that, you kicked that hole in the wall yourself for the video, didn't you?
;-p
great vid - exactly what I wanted.
thanks for posting!
excellent video
Why mumble?
Speak CLEARLY.
there are way faster ways to do that. looks like you need to many materials to do the job. but it works.
@chris92019 We (myself included) have a tendency to break things (walls included) then need to repair them quickly so people dont notice (parents included)
My dog made a hole in our dinning room after her bath
What! This wall has no bricks or concrete?
By "plaster" do you mean dry wall? I need PLASTER repair not dry wall.
Jmichael Isbell he means plaster boards
Thank you very much
It was so helpful
i use a self adhesive paper tape (dip in water) and 5 minute quick set plaster. I can have a hole patched with 3 coats of plaster in 45 mins. Good weather its dry and ready to sand in about 2 hours. And you'll definately need to coat that at least twice to not see that repair, possibly 3 times.
I also carry a hair dryer for quickly drying patches......i secured it to an old camera tripod...works great
thats why almost everywhere else we have real walls not a cardboard one :D
He waited 24 hours but he never changed his clothes.
This is overkill. Several processes he's used are not necessary.Why use the paper tape?
Usg plaster is wayyyyyyyy beta thn tradeset..
How come he doesn't primer the compound after its sanded smooth before he paints over it?
You mentioned "paper tape" i cant find that anywhere
Is the finishing coat a must? What does it do?
Does plus four = finishing coat?
this is not plaster, we call it gypsum board or also known as dry wall but not plaster...mislabeled video.
he thinks skimming is plastering, most people mix the two
He should have used a primer before putting on the color on the wall.
he couldn't me more right tho, they come home tomorrow :/ shitting it !
can you buy plasterboard or drywall at home depot
Thank God for internet today. See now I can do that on my own by going to Home Depot buying the tools instead of calling a dry waller to come to my house paying him. See how much you can save.
THAT'S what dry wall is!
We call it a stud wall or plasterboard in the UK
Front kick to the wall lol. I totally should of just hit my heavybag instead lol....
Umm, last I checked, yank was a knock on Americans. That dude is from Ireland according to his profile. Get your slurs straight and don't put him on us.
Nice patch job.
Yank in England means to pull something as well
Example my mate beat me at fifa so I yanked his ear and his head went through my plasterboard
