Maybe just making the hole a square would be easier.
yup
Without backing, that is just a bandaid.
I also feather the edges with a damp sponge instead of sanding.
@@militarybrat9734 you’d be surprised how strong a patch like that can be....I have done it a lot over 55 years ....I’ve also did back bracing and cutting back to the studs to repair...... but usually a patch like that last longer then the rest of the wall especially in rentals
A square butterfly would've been far easier and less time consuming
That original "patch" was a "hopefully we get the security deposit back" patch.
2nd patch is just as bad.... Lol!
@@kjones7270 That's what I was thinking. Why bother doing all that if you aren't going to support it from the back?
Not even. Why put in any effort if its gonna come out like that?Holy fuck thats cringe. You can go to walmart and even get the paint matched with a chip off the original paint. Get a can of orange peel and sanding prep. Ive helped countless friends get their security deposits back lol mind you im not ensuring customer satisfaction nor am I professional so it was all to purely look good on sight. Just saying how easy it is on a bumblefucl level to do this in the hopes of retaining security deposit.
@@MrZimmaframe you start off saying you don't understand and then you start spitting facts like you do understand. So, do you understand or not?
That patch is perfectly fine. No one will lean on the wall and pop it out. It's a sturdy and solid patch up to a certain size. At the size he has it at, it's perfectly fine.
@@Big_AlMC ??? He didn't paint it because that's the painter's job lmao
I’ve heard that called a “California patch.” Never done one before, I usually just square the hole and use backers. I’m sure it looks perfect though. Good job on matching the texture. I did a 17x32 patch and a 16x17 patch on a 12 foot ceiling up against crown last week and did a real good match to the existing knockdown texture using thinned down mud and a grout sponge that I customized for the job. Knocked it down with a 12” taping knife. I was proud of the result!
I was thinking the same thing and coincidencently I'm from California lol I prefer to cut out a slightly larger piece and scribe it to get a perfect fit while using backing.
It is called a California patch but ya supposed to make it easier b squareing up the hole fo faster fit.
That the right way to do it but some times you got to work with what you have in hand ?
That Carpenter has some very good skills. Good job fixing hole.
Yea it’s a California patch it’s good in not so traffic areas , but when you keep walking around there and could be dinged a lot it’s better to use backing it’s more proper for high traffic areas
Everyone is asking about the hand masker to put the tape and paper on the wall. Here is the link. amzn.to/2UrtzNL And here is the sander that attaches to my shop vac. Drywall sanding attachment amzn.to/2HT8AjH
Home depot and Lowe's both carry that as well. Right next to the masking paper and masking tape, same aisle.
I used to do it like that but now I screw a 1" x 1/2" or similar piece of timber behind the patch, it then becomes much stronger
I like to use OSB and screw it all together.
That's using dead wood. What we call it and u are correct
We
That's called a california patch lol
Thats a much better way than the video.
The Bob Ross of drywall repair. Keep it up love the videos.
Happy little knockdown textures
Bought a 20V Dewalt multi tool since I saw it in one your older videos, I've had about a month and it literally changed how I do projects as a DIY'er. I've used it on about 5-6 projects and its a total game changer. Love learning tricks from your channel!
Having a quality portable drill is half the battle many times!-John in Texas
I’ve watched about every video you’ve put out, and you get the most excited when you match the texture perfectly. Gotta love those small victories.
Run some hot water over those texture cans to build up the pressure and they’ll clog less often.
never even thought of that, its so simple, but genius.
For the price of that can you could texture 8-10 sheets using bucket mud. I'll use cans for really small orange peel patches but knockdown from a can rarely matches. Especially if it was done originally with a large spray rig.
@@codydean10 LEEROY AHJENKINSS!
I agree I do it.
I leave them in my car on the dash or on the hood to get em nice and warm
I have got to get one of those sanding attachments for my shop vac👊 that knocked off an hour or more of prep time. Thanks for the tip👊
Yep. I accidentally found another guy using one on YT, and ran out to buy one the next day. I wish I had known about it years ago. Is a huge improvement to sanding drywall
Great patch H•Man ....
Even tho it's covered by that ugly texture crap, u still took the time to do that patch perfect.
Always keepin it 100 - appreciate u man .
Nice job. I got my start in the industry doing drywall finishing. Since then I've expanded my resume to full scope builder/renovations. I do enjoy your videos. I try to catch all The Handyman and The Handyman Business . I find them very informative. Try to find short cuts or easier ways for myself also your business insight i find helpful.
Thanks and keep them coming
Over the years I would say I've done at least 150 200 drywall repairs. I've always squared it off and put in backer made out of either metal or 1x2 wood. I've never seen your technique before watching this video. I must say, I much prefer your method it's a lot quicker than squaring it off and putting in backer in the future I'm using your technique.
His method is called a Hawaiian patch or California patch. One that size should have had a wood backer, especially in such a high traffic area.
I had forgotten about that method. I dont enjoy texturing drywall but now I look forward to my next patch.
I learned something today if I ever need to patch a drywall hole.
Handyman: “Yeah sex is cool and all but have you ever perfectly matched knockdown?!”
lol
That's awesome
Not if that's how he does it. He dragged that blade in at least four different directions. That'll never blend or match the existing knockdown pattern. Look before knocking down, knockdown in one direction.... following the direction of the original knockdown.
Thank God. Seriously. We finally have a good drywall patch tutorial, and I had been hoping to find one. Ty sir.
The way you chose to cut out a round piece to match the hole rather than to cut the hole into a nice square...holy cow! Your experience shined!!! Awesome work!
What experience? That was really dumb . I can tell he doesn’t have much experience doing this
@@MrSGH21 waiting on your “professional” video to be posted
@@dillon7981 when did I use the word “professional” ? I’m not a youtuber and I don’t post videos. I just said I can tell he doesn’t have experience because of the way he does the patch. And someone wouldn’t use that spray can to do that patch. I didn’t say he didn’t do a good job I’m sure it turned out well
Ole Handyman filling in the holes in our drywall _and_ our hearts!
💜! 🤗
@icarus - He can sew, too? A *true* handyman!
Take it easy man!
The Handyman does a great job ... suspicious he's only doing this until he starts his Beard Soap company
This is exactly how I patch small holes too. I just usually square it off instead of trying to cut a circle, I always mess up circles
I was searching the comments thinking I was the only one doing that lol
Cut out square around hole, screw in scrap wood behind drywall to have something to screw in new drywall, match square from step one with piece of drywall, cut, screw in, mud, drink budweiser, sand, spray texture, knock down with putty knife, match paint, get mad at paint logistics, paint, strut cause you da man
Always knock down in one direction..... follow the direction that was originally done or it will look like a patch (not match). Handyman went in several directions when knocking down.... no way that will blend or match. Sign of a patch for sure.
Yea he made that more difficult than it shoulda been lol
Exactly square it off measure yur square boom
Great job as always, love your tricks and tips✌️
Thanks for the video Handyman, love that sander vacuum combo👍
I’ve been doing repair/remodel work for the past few years and this is the first time I’ve seen a sander attachment. It’s pretty sweet!
Just starting my business and find your videos very helpful. Thank you.
Thats good stuff right there, as always great job Handyman!!!!
Great work and the patch is looking good. Thanks for the awesome content stay safe and take care
California patch 😎
Why do the Cali patch and instead cut the square out and add a couple fir strips and then mid?
Just as good and makes me more money.
You are in the right place. I have a cool tool that I just got this week. I don't know how I made it this far without it. Video on it coming soon.
We call it a hot patch where I'm from. Fine work Sir.
@@TheHandyman1 I'm curious, how does this make more money?
@Barry Obie Takes less time. I've done hundreds of these over the last 2 decades. For small holes this is fastest with least trips to trailer, to HD, least amount of materials. It gets amazing results that last a lifetime.
Great perspective on the drywall patchwork so simple and perfect at a cost
really like that paper you taped up on the wall never saw that before nice work
This little trick had made me a ton of money! Only thing I do differently is I mist the paper on the patch before I mud. Probably doesn't help, but it makes me feel like the mud grabs it better. Also, SPOT ON with the knock down blending!!!
Mud doesn’t grab better but it helps to push out excess mud when you took it I have found.
There is no way that blended. The original knockdown is done in one direction. He dragged his blade in at least four different directions. That will look like a patch every time.
I use a heat gun on my patches and can get one done from patch to paint in less than an hour. It works very well. I like using the "blowout patch" method as well. I enjoy your videos brother!
Very nice job! You probably know this but, if you take a damp sponge around the edges as the hot mud sets up, you can feather the edges into the existing texture and also lightly knock down ridges. Almost no sanding needed. 👍
Great tip!
I’ve done wall patching and similar stuff to this, but I’ve always wanted to see it this way. Super cool.
Good old fashion butterfly patch. Nice work
This technique is great but I've never seen anyone cut the patch round. Usually the hole being patched gets cut out larger into a square to get rid of any impact damage where the drywall blew out on the backside, but great work nonetheless. As long as it looks like the damage never happened and returns the structure of the wall back to normal then it's a good patch job
This was really good work. As an electrician, my hole patching is, fortunately, very limited but - been there, done that.
One thing the 'do it square people' are missing is that you do *not* patch anything with a straight line, especially not in the middle of a flat wall.
They eyes will catch even the slightest trace of a straight line. This handyman did it right.
As to the negative stuff about the 'California' patch - sigh. It's a perfectly good method and absolutely solid.
It’s not a flat wall. It has texture, so there would be no straight line seen. Also, if you do it right on a “flat wall” you won’t see a line. This guy wasted a lot of time doing this.
Dead wrong on many levels. Just because the patch is a rectangle doesn't mean the paper flange surrounding it has to be square. Also, if you can see the line from a straight edge, why wouldn't you be able to see the seem from an irregular edge? You will see both. An irregular shape would look weirder.
That's seriously cool, I'm pretty far from a handyman with next to no experience outside of installing small sections of mouldings and making smal plant stands and boxes, so I never knew you could do it like that.
The next time I have to patch drywall (did my first one last month, came out pretty well!), but don't have any studs to work with, I now know a good way to fix it up!
I have watched wall patch videos before this one and my wall ended up with a large mound both from this method and then I cut it out and tried a different method with the same bad results
I always wanted to know how to make that pattern on the wall.Thank you very much!!!.
I really like it when you show solutions that any homeowner can use at an affordable price, and not just techniques or equipment that only contractors with huge budgets.
You are welcome 😊
Most people here aren't here because they own a property, it's because their wife told them to fix it.
Ya I still couldn't. I'd just call someone lol. Not really my thing.
As someone that does a lot of do-it-yourself projects... you make this look way too easy. Especially matching those textures... very impressive.
Thank you very much!
I love watching your videos. It gives me hope to work for myself and stop working for the man. I could be making my worth and choose the jobs I want to do!
You make blending it look easy. I’ve tried that and it not so easy!
I learned this method a couple of years ago and it changed my freakin' life. It makes it SO much easier to patch holes!!!!!
Yes it does!
on smooth finish walls, i find it advantageous to cut square to studs and put in a solid piece of drywall...hard to get those edges down on level 4-5!
Love watching your process. You've got a lot of natural, acquired, and innate skill.
Good job. You might find it easier however if you prime before you texture. This helps the paint not to flash and makes the knockdown part easier as it dries at a consistent rate. I know it adds one extra step to the process, but I found that and well-lit areas, especially on the ceiling, it is necessary to primer first.
Handyman Magic!! Thanks for the tips!
Thank you for showing this process.
Looks great, though I was thinking clean the blade after every pass. like when doing taping.
How many people would be so painstaking? You're a hero.
Your well rounded skill I amazes me. Love the content and learned a lot from this video. 👍
Nice repair. Personally I like to cut out a square from stud to stud, but I’ve done it this way too. Ultimately if you do it this way it can come out nicer but you need a sharp eye. Looks great.
This guy is fantastic! I learn so much from his lessons!
I've had the same texture issue with the past 4 bottles. I've gone to the oldschool hammer wrapped in a wrag dip technique for small knockdown repairs
@@JonnyDIY i meant to add that i wrap a plastic bag around the rag. basically the same technique as you but with a rag and hammer for more control
We called those California patches back in the day! Nice work Handyman!
Welcome to the Bob Ross of drywall. Happy little knock down! I’d almost bet drywall is The Handyman’s favorite 😉
Your method is exactly the same as I use with one exception, try placing mud on the edge of the insert patch, that will bond the new piece and the existing wall.
Nicely done sir.
Great video! Learned a few things:)
Glad it was helpful!
Hi Handiman,
On really small repairs I use a hair dryer on a adjustable pole in a stand and occasionally move it around to dry the entire patch. The combination of air and heat is perfect For doing super fast patches That allow you to paint right away.
Any moisture at all behind paint and it will push the paint off the wall, so I would come back in 2 days to paint. Dry on top doesn't insure it's dry all the way through. But 48hr does.
Excellent video. Thank you
There's always a fantastic method to Handyman's madness!
Thanks for the tips!
Beautiful drywall work! John in Texas
I’m loving the channel I wanna totally break away from my job and do something for my self I need to start buying tools and a truck
Thank you so much for the lesson! I needed this and never done dry wall patching before. I watched this video and it worked like a charm.. duhh this was so easy and I was going to pay someone to do it..! Thank you
Glad it helped!
@@TheHandyman1 yes sir! I'm just waiting for it to cure.. you uploaded this right on time!!
I was literally patching my wall was about to take out the entire section and you uploaded this video!! saved me so much time
Total Boss Man cutting that patch to match to hole! Me, I would have squared that hole up first! Nice job 👍. I do a lot of drywall repairs, and have found that with hot mud, you don’t even need it to be completely dry( I know you’re not painting this)before priming and painting. Nicely done 👍
I’m thinking you should’ve put a thin backing in their as in a false backing… That way it has something to sit on two aside from just mud adhesion. But, then again, what matters is the finite result! So, good job
is that considered a california patch? thanks for vids, been a floor guy most my working life,got a couple rentals now and i really get alot from you, thanks.

I learn so much from ur channel! Thanks.
Happy to hear that!
Great work handyman
Its a hot patch in indiana. California patch to the Mexican drywall hangers and finishers ive worked with. But I've seen it done so many ways. All the same result.
Just did this ! Was amazed ! Art 🖼
Neat sheet rock trick 👍🏾.
I just learned something gonna add it to my home resume.
Have always hated patch kits. For something 1x1" or less, I simply use a few coats of mud, for anything bigger it's always cutting the hole into a symmetrical square, two pieces of 1x2 in the wall, and new piece of drywall to match square hole tightly. Then it's very easy to fill and texture to an even finish.
I use the same technique as you for my rentals. Faster and less time. 👍
This is the best drywall repair video I have ever seen.
Great job blending the spray can texture.
great job!!! Never seen that way of cutting out the dry wall to match the hole like you did!
I have used those sprays quite a bit and have found that you get more consistency and don't get it running out if you heat the can to a bit above room temperature
Great work!!!
One I wish I could come work with you and learn all your skills! So amazing
Thanks brother, I always learn something watching your videos
Glad to hear it
good job and you are professional! we suggest you our self-adhesive aluminum wall repair patch for the drywall and ceiling holes. it have fiberglass self-adhesive mesh and aluminum board, so it have high tensile strength, and easy to use, what do you think about our recommend?
Love the channel
Looking good. Don't know what you used for the mud, but Durabond 20 really cures in 20 or less. Nice job!
Brilliant, thanks for this!
Nice tips.
Those outside base corners are hilarious! Never seen that before.
Great work
It's interesting to see your videos with wall texture/knockdown texture/popcorn ceilings, etc. It must be a regional thing, cause up here in Canada, I've never seen these treatments in my entire life. Everything's just painted.
Excellent job
Excellent content!
Glad you enjoyed it
I love watching your stuff! As I watch I think of the Tim Allen "Call of manhood" sound(it's what I call it and women can do it as well)
That’s a really good texture match. Boom
Good job, most people lack the finesse to make repairs that blend in with existing surfaces.
Awsome man thanks heaps really impressive
Nice patch job! How much do you charge for a project like this?
Cool seeing you utilize that vacuum while sanding
See if this tip helps. When I need to mix 20 minute mud, I use the gallon size paint mixer (little plastic fan style blades) on my drill and mix the mud. It mixes FAST! Fits perfectly in the pan, no splash and no clumps or bubbles.
That Ben Moore Ultra Spec 500 in the background is good stuff.
I just liked and subscribed!!! You’re awesome dude!!
I appreciate it!
