POV DRYWALL $600 2 HOURS

[@GolayaPravda]

Would you be able to do this repair as fast if there was no texture? Where I live there is almost no texture just flat drywall so sanding is always a part of the a repair like that and it takes longer.

[@thedrywalltech]

@@GolayaPravda good question. No, when I do smooth wall patches like I’m doing tomorrow, I will coat it out with hot mud” 5 minute mud “ until smoooth and then pull it tight with light weight . Then I will come back the next day to lightly sand the edges and paint . If it’s a smaller patch I would use a heat gun and fan so I could paint it in the same day. All depends on the size

[@justinflownow]

Thank you and I wish your camera was pointed up some more. AND PLEASE keep making these videos. These are EXCELLENT. You are so talented and quick. Can you do one video real time (not speeded up) of using the sponge for smoothing out the hot mud? Regarding the last coat/skip coat was it all purpose compound? How long did it take to dry? And what was the temperature of the fan/room? Did the fan have a heater on it?

[@justinflownow]

Ah I see you answered my question regarding dry time: 45 mins. I thought all purpose compound took many hours to dry? Was this a special kind? Or was it so warm that it dried so quickly

[@thedrywalltech]

@@justinflownow thank you for the compliments! Honestly when I decided to lane the first one I had no idea people would like to watch it lol. So I’m working on a better mount and the next one I upload will be at a slower speed . Just didn’t want to bore everyone 😂 My last coat is pretty much always 5 min or 20 min unless im doing smooth wall then it will be light weight or all purpose compound. No heater on the fan just blowing room temp air. Used that same fan today to dry and paint tow different jobs.

since 1983 I started as a carpenter....have since learned how to pretty much do every trade from doing concrete/stucco to installing crown moulding.....more trades you pick up the more valueable you become....on Remodels me and 1 guy do everything cept install granite learning multiple trades will only benefit yourself to a higher degree, especially if you wanna go out on your own

[@thedrywalltech]

@@kirkdunn1379 that’s awesome! Definitely agree 🤙🏼

Good content brother, keep up the good work 🫡

[@thedrywalltech]

@@MGMG007 thank you! I appreciate the comment👊🏼

[@edvinlopez9420]

Bro your prices make my jaw break no hate but when I charge people they get mad and some of the patch are bigger than yours but thanks man for the videos you’re awesome.

[@thedrywalltech]

@@edvinlopez9420 lol no worries man!I’ve had drywall companies in California, Texas and Arizona. Every state is a little different and I think it just comes down to how you market yourself and what areas you work in. I’m cheaper than a lot of guys out here. Get it all the time how good my pricing is . Don’t sell yourself short 🤙🏼

[@wise-man6832]

Life goals: retire early, live a healthy life, learn how to do your technique while doing drywall and texture 😂. You do really great work! You ever think about training people for money? I do handyman work in AZ, I’m always looking to improve and would love for you to show me some tips!

[@thedrywalltech]

@@wise-man6832 sounds like a good plan to me 😂 appreciate the compliment! Have never thought about it but I have traned over the years with helpers here and there but no one can hang around long enough to put it to good use lol. What part of AZ are you in?

[@Denver_____]

Hey man, love the art, it’s def a skill. Quick question on my popcorn removal, after mudding and sanding right before painting the ceiling, do I pass a wet sponge to take out the dust or just paint after the final sand? Not too sure on that

[@thedrywalltech]

@@Denver_____ Thanks man,appreciate it you saying that! Yes the quickest way would be to take a broom and brush it down real quick. That’s what I used to do when I offered that service👍🏼

[@Denver_____]

@ thx, I didn’t even think about the broom 🧹 good idea

[@chriscolameco6850]

Which sheeting do you use? I’ve been using a hand masker with 9” Paper and drop cloths your system is faster

[@thedrywalltech]

@@chriscolameco6850 I typically use a 1.5 mill for the floor and .5 mill for everything else. Here in this though video it was just my .5 mill from dunn edwards for the floor. Then I just ball it all up and toss it in my trash when I get home

[@charleshairston4853]

How do you get customers? Advertise? I've done this kind on work on the side for years, but now want to work it full time. Im in the DFW metroplex.

[@thedrywalltech]

@@charleshairston4853 please click the link in my bio to join my coaching program where I teach you how to get leads…… just playing 😂 honestly that’s a long answer . Just get your Google business listing going , get a website up and focus on getting reviews and posting pictures . My last company was in Austin and one of my guys ended up taking it over and we’re still ranked #2 for Austin. And there are a bunch of other ways to get leads as well. Maybe I’ll do a live Q and A to answer some of these questions. Thanks for watching my video 🤘🏼

Great Job.

[@dazquez]

Damn bro good shiiii You use ur phone on your head !?? I’m tryna do the same thing let me know ur setup if you can. Thanks !

[@thedrywalltech]

@@dazquez thanks brotha!! Yeah it just one of those things that wrap around your neck and attach to your phone . Looks stupid as helll when you wearing it but it works 😂

[@MSeroga]

Man's so used to eyeball measuring everything he goes to eyeball trim... cmon man! You have a tape measure for a reason, it's not that hard to use! :)

[@thedrywalltech]

@@MSeroga I was in the moment playa! just going with the flow 😂😂😂

[@MSeroga]

@@thedrywalltech Ahhh alright alright... As someone who did finish carpentry for many years that one hurt, 3 times to get 1 piece right lol, but it's ok I'll let it slide this one! haha

[@zohebthayer]

Man whoever plumbed that could’ve done a better job. Didn’t even add nail plates let alone make the box straight

[@thedrywalltech]

@@zohebthayer see it all the time man. Good eye on the details 👌🏼

[@jasnapon]

Your camera work makes me dizzy

[@thedrywalltech]

@@jasnapon yeah I wouldn’t really call this camera work, it’s just an iPhone strapped to my neck 😂. Your probably dizzy from me having to speed it up. If I don’t speed it up it would be an hour long video.

[@justinflownow]

Why not use a go pro with a head strap?

[@thedrywalltech]

@ go pro kept overheating on the last job. So wanted to try this out. Looking for different mounts as we speak.

[@TheItalianStallion13]

600 is kinda high... But then again I have seen prices of 600 bucks for a HVAC guy to install a furnace board in 5 min. Work looks good, and the fact that you don't wait to come back tomorrow to let mud dry is really nice.

[@thedrywalltech]

@@TheItalianStallion13 Yeah you got to remember I also picked up the paint match , baseboard, new insulation, and had all necessary tools to do every aspect . Most guys would just do that drywall repair for $300 $350 and be out . Then leave the homeowner calling a handyman or someone else to do the rest. Appreciate the comment brotha !

[@mofoz66]

More like 900+ for all that

[@MSeroga]

@@mofoz66 Yea I live in Washington State... we would easily charge 1.5k or 2k for something like that. Then again we would prime that wall, paint it 2 times not once... cut the base to match like it was before and not jam it in there... You don't cut OG base inside corners at 90 degrees and just shove them in there lol. Oh and we don't do skip trowel here which saves you 1 or 2 coats of mudding seeing as it can hide so much. The end result was decent but clearly the customer didn't care seeing as it got hidden behind the appliances.

[@mofoz66]

@@MSeroga are you splitting it in two days or or doing it all in one day?

[@MSeroga]

@@mofoz66 splitting. It doesn’t always work out but I at times have multiple jobs like this so when there’s downtime and I’m waiting for primer to dry or a coat of mud, I go to the other job. Different parts of US have different codes and different standards. We also have different living expenses. So $600 in AZ is different than $600 in Cali for example.
