Thank you for your expert advice! I was having trouble finding the best way to repair my ceiling after I had water damage. It was a patch about 3'X1' with about 1/8" thick layer that I had to fill. I scraped it, primed it with GARDZ Problem Surface Sealer, and plastered it with RAPID SET One Pass Wall repair Muf 90 Minutes, just like you showed in your video. To get it perfectly smooth and even without any lines it took me a few passes, but I got the hang of it. I am happy I had 90 minutes as I needed it to learn how to do it right. Those extra minutes made the difference between getting it right and getting it very wrong! I purchased the long applicator and I am glad I did as it cleared the area I wanted smoothly and without lines. Thank you again, you saved me lots of time and $. PS You make it look easy, but to this novice, it was hard work! Frances

Many thanks to that Kilted Guy for his personalized help. If you haven’t watched his videos you are missing out. I think that I have watched them all . . . many of them twice. I learn something every time that I watch one. The best YouTube drywall repair videos hands down.

[kenc]

[sunnywen]

[shadowpatriot]

[vero]

Thank you for the asides and details, especially on the tape types and mud set times. I've watched your videos before for a drywall repair due to a difficult built-in desk removal. Now I'm back to see what I'm in for to repair a ceiling slightly(?) damaged by a couple of pinhole leaks in the garage. I can't wait to try it. Subscribed. Cheers!

[ags-industrialsuppliesandc]

Thank you for posting such an instructive good video on repair of water damaged drywall ceilings !

[jessedevlin]

I loved that intro, Short informative lesson for the pros, then into the details afterwards!

[postulatingspin]

Great instructional. The one thing necessary and missing are safety glasses….I buy them in 12 packs….about a $1.80 per pair. Had a couple of really bad storms which caused damage whilst out of town for a couple of weeks….so gotta get to work.

[klehman]

Perfect timing! I'll be getting to a kitchen ceiling repair soon. (Finally had the roof repaired last Fall.) Oh, and loved the musical interlude : )

Need to get me one of those depth clutches. I had a 12V impact it was 10 years old decided to buy a new DeWalt it's lot more powerful overdrives screws so easy. I kind of miss my old 12V because it was so light, and didn't overdrive screws.

[RickMarshallMaps]

Thanks for the great video. You have given me enough confidence to tackle a similar problem at home

[eternylbliss]

What if you are not sure where leak is coming from? My kitchen ceiling leaks but only if its a crazy storm not sure where its getting in at. I had the people that did my roof - come back out and check it but they said its fine and they were unsure where water is coming from. Its a flat rubber roof. It doesn't leak for long maybe drips for like 10 minutes then stops. I think its coming in from somewhere out and going down inside above the ceiling. I was trying to avoid having someone come out and cut part of ceiling out to see.

[randystuehm]

I have nearly identical damage that this video shows. Thank you so much. My wife is happy about the upstairs. I probably owe you a pint.

[GoforVenom]

Hi ! I have dark black stain in half of the ceiling of a small closet should I removed the drywall and replace it ? Learn so much from your video your are great with providing information, tools and products. Thank you for your videos

How to do it right, well thats debatable becuse for every job there are at least 5 ways give or take to go about it, so its more a how to do it like you would, not saying your way is bad, or right its the way you learned and works for you.
But there are other ways to do it and get similar results.

This is not a cut down by any means you do very good work, I cant say I always agree we all have out own ways to do things and its a good idea to look at sevral differnt ways to find what works best for you.
