A little tip to home owners if you get a leak in a ceiling as soon as you notice put a whole in it so it doesn’t spread across the whole board it can prevent the sheet from bowing and falling the water spreads and starts soaking the drywall causing it to turn soft and the screws pull loose

[@cry2urmom757]

Reading that gave me a headache 😔

[@JoeKing67.]

First! You must fix leak!

[@kenseymour5152]

@@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

[@JT_70]

Water stain is over a bed so can’t put a hole in the drywall and allow it to drip. I put a bucket in the attic to catch the drip but we found the damage too late. One of 4 rooms with ceiling damage from separate roof leaks.

Hey, good video. I'm a DIY with very little knowledge of home repairs. I'd like to suggest maybe putting together a separate video where you break down what each of this compounds, muds and stuff are for, or why you use them.

[@adamames6907]

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!

[@susanjuracsik2433]

Been finishing for 30 years. Nice job! Watched other videos and see exactly why the trade has gone to shit. Proud of you. Matching textures is pure art work and again you are correct flat latex for primar people don't realize. Brand new drywall? As long as you sponge wash after sanding one coat flat latex with long nap roller.your done

[@terencescott3957]

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.

[@jorgecampa57]

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.

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!

Wow, thanks so much! I’m a DIY’er and first time home buyer who will need these skills for my wife and I to get a home.

I'm watching this video as a hopeful first-time homebuyer. A lot of the homes in my and my partners modest price range have damaged ceilings. Nice to see what kind of repair we would be looking at, and it looks like something we could do ourselves.

What’s the final coat made up of, you mentioned something about sand?

[@elvaledecolima]

Patches are so hard to hide .... i think the best thing to do is skim the whole lid and re texture

[@PaulPeck]

Totally agree Dave. Check this ceiling project out: kzbin.info/aero/PL7Ww-LhWbB0F8fOEwjAbiJyT6YYFERvUL I always give my customers several options. Some are looking for a Cadillac and others are looking for a Pinto... Haha.😂

Your video was the first to pop up when inquiring about ceiling water damage. The roof by the chimney was leaking, it's fixed, and I have to repair the water damaged ceiling. Thank you for your informative video. With your help I believe I can do it myself. Cheers!

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.

What your looking at takes years of experience to get that result.

[@bobwreck3775]

No. Just put it up there and slap on the mud. if you cant do that then stick to pooping in public toilets

Homeowner, here because the roofing company that replaced my roof caused a leak… they fixed the roof after that but then told me they are not responsible for any interior damage 🫠 Feeling more confident for this weekend’s project with your instruction!

This is a great video that really covers this task thoroughly. I'm a DIY'er who initially found this daunting but learned with patience, and a little trial and error that I could do this myself.

[@PaulPeck]

That’s great! Thank you so much for watching and commenting!💥👍🏻😎

I rent, unfortunately, and I had to fight my landlord to repair growth (turned out to be fungus) from a leak in the bathroom ceiling where the fan is. His guys did NOT remove all the water damaged drywall and replace it, so I'm going to attempt to do it myself. This video is extremely helpful! My biggest problem is probably going to be cutting a hole out for the fan and getting it back in. Wish me luck!

[@misstovi]

Love the video. I am a DIYer. I have patched holes in walls and thought the ceiling would be to difficult a task, however, I have confidence I can fix my ceiling after watching your video. Much appreciated ❤

This is the first video i clicked on and its exactly what i was looking for! Wr had water damage from tub overflow in our basement guest room with a finished ceiling (bought the house that way). I was able to fix my overflow gasget fron a previous video. Now to repair the ceiling without relying on someone else. Thanks so much for all the detailed info of product and tools!!

I never wanted to be a carpenter a handyman Plummer electrician any of that never had that that dream but I'm becoming all of them in part because I have to repair everything I'm a 68-year-old woman and I have learned to do quite a bit living by myself but I really do like it now I like to learn thanks for sharing this

DIY'er repairing a 6" x 5' rectangular drywall cutout in my kitchen backsplash wall resulting from the installation of a new electrical outlet in the kitchen prior to installing new tile on the backsplash wall. Good informative video.
