Thanks For The Help!!!
I have a small hole in the wall where the door knob went through a little.
The whole knob didn’t go through, just the push-in lock. So the hole is
maybe the size of a nickle. Do I need this type of patch for this?
Thanks.
Hello Russ. Thank you for your tips here . I was getting confused seeing
that u only had a minute or two you had little time to tell us in a clear
voice what that patch you were talking is called . Could you label the
videos as part one part two and so forth. On some viewing devices the next
video isn’t always in order. So for me it difficult to know what the next
video thanks very much. Best wishes for the new year
thank for the video, this is my first time watching this and it was
helpful. I replaced my bathroom sink light and the old one was about 4
feet long, the new one is about 6 inches so I have all the drywall to paint
but my buddy told me to use sandpaper to smooth the edges before
painting..is there any other options/..THANKS AGAIN…definetly subscribing
to your page
Thanks for the help! I have a smaller issue, but this gives me a good idea
of how to approach it.
What kind of plaster do u use…….. I’m moving out of my apartment and I
have a few dents in the wall and also nail holes….
Good videos…your a good man. Thanks for the vids and tips!
I have not watched all of your videos yet. Just looking as I have a house
with three outlets at shoulder height that the previous owners must have
had one of those wall CD flat stereo and speaker hanging from. Looking on
how to patch the holes and just get rid of the outlets and holes. You have
great videos. You look like you really know what you are doing. And it is
an honor to have found your skill and be able to watch it. You are a real
blessing to me and I greatly appreciate your taking the time! Especially as
it comes out of your pay time! Peace and Blessings to you.
Thanks for doing these videos. I remodel houses and most videos only show
the kind of hack work I try to avoid on my projects. You are the only
person I’ve seen demonstrate how a true professional would do it.
Can I use the already muddy like plaster of Paris? Will it hold up?
Thanks for the Vid.
Just moved into a Flat and your Video helped a lot
Thank you very much dont b listening to those shitvtalkers your a good man
to take your time out to help people
this is great,, I am from the UK so know how to deal with brick walls,, but
now I am in the US clearly there is a very different approach,, just what I
needed cheers!!
You just made my job easier. Thank you!
It’s valspar texture paint
Thanks for actually explaining the how and why of what’s going on.
Just made my move out days 10x easier
This man does not know how to talk
you are missing “how to fix holes and dents” part 2
If i had a hole that small “in my own home” i just fill it with drywall let
dry in layers and sand, then paint, that easy. less work less money. Of
cousre if it were professional and a big hole then i’d use the cutting out
of the drywall concept. But I guess if you want to screw something else
into the fixed part of the wall it wouldnt work well with the easy way I
just mentioned, but i never put screws int he same holes anyway. But if you
want a quick fix for little holes thats it.
dude you dropped your hammer on the hardwood floor
Hi Russ! I’m one of your new subscribers. I’m a new home owner and just got
my first place this month. Although I got it for an incredibly good price
(here in NY) it still needs A LOT of work. Before tackling the cracks and
holes in my bedroom I looked up tutorials on how to do it. I watched at
least 8 other videos till I came across yours and found yours so helpful!
You have no idea how much I really appreciate your videos and I had to tell
you thank you. The way you explain things, you make it easy for a newbie
like me to accomplish things. I do have to admit, it took me 2 days to
finish watching ALL your videos on this channel and your other channel. But
thank you so much! I went to Home Depot and bought the same tools (Trowler
and Hawk) and practiced before attempting to skim my walls lol =)
No worries Russ! – c ya
Ohhh and by the way I’m a professional painter/decorator by trade okay
Daaa Daaa Daa that’s allll folks!
Who is smarter the guy teaching you how to do this or the idiots making fun
of him who can’t even do this. You are the same kids that didn’t learn
anything in school cause you were worried about bs rather than learning. No
wonder the rest of us got ahead in life and have to support you chumps with
your government subsidies.
Awesome video!! This helped me a lot with fixing the whole in my wall!
what happened to part 2???
how about part 2???????????
Can you fix a small impression without the use of mud?
Thank you for this tutorial!!!! I really appreciate the tips and
techniques. You make it very easy to understand and you take your time
teaching. I’m subbed!
All of the ‘drywall’ repair videos I’ve seen assumes you are repairing a
drywall with thickness. What is my ‘drywall’ is so thin that it’s basically
as thick as a cardboard?
Very good!, but you surely went through a lot of steps and procedures to
produce a quality well done job sir! Like so many layers of patching
filler/compound you used to attain the finished result etc! – you could
have used other alternative methods I guess? But well done!
Excellent no-bullshit tutorial – subbed.
Great videos.
I am new to this and
I have some small holes I did to repair and you mentioned some of your
material that you use. Can you tell me what brand your mud and plaster are.
Also the tools needed to complete the job. Thanks.
Thanks for the help bro!
How cute and sweet is this guy!!! He’s gorgeous AND fixes stuff around the
house? What a keeper!! Russ, you are awesome!! Thanks for the help, you are
really great at explaining things easily to an amateur like me. Thanks
again!
wheres part 2
What I was trying to mention was that you could have Simplified the process
or application method? Anyways – you put in a lot of hard work & effort
into what you done etc
I have a hole cause by a door knob. Im afraid the knob will hit this area
again and cause the hole to reopen. Is there anything else I can put in the
hole to keep this from happening again? (other than a door stopper at the
bottom)
Russ I love your work I’ve been a sub since 2011 love u keep it up
Thanks so much! This really helped me out in a pinch getting my apartment
deposit back! Roomate’s dumb jack russell terrier dug a hole in our
bathroom wall. Thanks Russ, you da bomb.
With all that damage to the wall, wouldn’t it have easier to to just
replaced the large square of the wall? Instead of 3 patches and a couple
fillings?
