Bad Drywall Patch Job Repair - Fix Bad Drywall

This job was done at an apartment complex in Dickinson, North Dakota.

A sub par or quick patch job was done in the ceiling.
I repaired it and smoothed it out.

This was completed in two days, given other jobs and more importantly, proper dry time between layers of mud and prior to sanding, texture and paint.

I’m going to try this with trim around my door frames with years of pain of them they don’t look crisp

Wow this looks amazing! I have SO MANY ugly poorly patched spots in my house. Thanks for the guidance.

I'd love to know what grit/type of sander/type of sanding disc you used given all the inevitable dust

This is a nice video. I am a beginner at doing drywall work. Can you tell me why you shot texture? It appears to be a smooth ceiling.

Boy what the hell are you doing?
Take the piece off and install new. Secure well with sink screws, use paper tape (holds stronger) using 20 minute mud. Wait until dried and just float the whole patch to prevent any bumps and match your texture at the end. All this sanding you're doing too much.

My bad this is how no to do a patch job

[nathanneufeld]

your dreaming james just to sand that is 1 hour, tape and mud 1 hour, 2nd coat 1 hour, 3rd coat 1 hour, texture 1 hour, and if you use quick set you still have to wait for mud to dry so whole day job plus material and truck that you have to bring all material in looking at 800-1000 patch or not worth it for tradesman not gonna work for 20 bucks an hour and break your back fuck that
