In this video, Troy (Tarter Home Maintenance) shows the professional way to patch a small hole in drywall.

First, he installs the patch and tapes it, then textures the patch and paints over it to camouflage it.

  • i can do the same thing......in reverse...

  • where did the hole go?

  • That's a great way to do it!

  • I never though about using a damp spoung. Thanks for the tip!!

  • what did he use for texture?

  • .WELL DONE.

  • I used this same method for a hole a little bigger than the one in the video and it worked great. The paper had a tendency to bubble when it was wet, but it flatted out with sand paper after it dried. I had a box of 5 minute fast set mud, but it set too fast for me so I used the regular stuff. I also wasn't skill enough to skip the sand paper.

  • Very informative, I have several walls i need to repair with small drywall patches I think i can do it now.

    Thank you
