Best drywall patch & customer support on the market !

It is just a hot patch aka hillbilly patch, no big deal. Yes there are better methods but this will work for smaller holes on side walls (not recommended for ceilings).  Coating these patches is not for beginners, there are several things that can & will go wrong with this method, I would consider this an intermediate level method for repair. Yes there are better methods but you won't find them on This Old House, their drywall repair videos are a joke, I'm speaking from over 25 yrs experience

Don't listen to these "This Old House" viewers.... THIS is the true method... you are THE MAN!!

dont teach too much about the trade. Anyone can go down to the hardware store and purchase what your selling for pennies. LOL

the method that is given on the show "this old house" is way better and way easier. for your job you'd just cut a 3x8 piece of sheetrock then screw it up to the wall from the inside . then take your 3x3 patch and screw it in the hole. done. way easier.

What if they don't have a stud or something to screw to? Or what if they don't have a screw gun? then what? And with your method you have to tape it with drywall tape so it wont crack, with this patch you don't need tape either.

[mozkill]

the "this old house" method doesnt require you to screw to a stud. also, doesnt everyone have a power screwdriver?

Not the easiest way to get the job done!
