How to fill gaps in your drywall

this is very important to do after your drywall is finished, you must fill any gaps, you must use a special compound to ensure that it will not shrink or take a long time to dry, Sheetrock 90 is what I like to use which is a cgc product

I just filled large gaps I had in my drywall using your method. I’m a woman, I’ve never done this before, I did theirs all by myself and I followed your instructions step by step. The wall turned out excellent!!! You can’t even tell there was a huge gap there.

WOW. My previous homeowner used regular compound with tape and its now separating. So glad I found this.

"I didn't drywall this job. My friend did." haha throwing him right under the bus! Great job cleaning it all up! I'm doing bedroom in a basement right now and made sure my walls were 100% square before doing the drywall. However, as we all know, nothing is ever square !

Thank you! You saved the day. My amateur sheet rocking have gaps all over. Your solution is perfect!

Thank you for this video, it took me forever to find a video that was actually repairing larger cracks in drywall not just doing Simple patches and tape

Great tips. People should be aware that 90 and other quick sets harden like concrete and don't skrink as much as all purpose. Apply it tight, especially if used over screw holes.

I think you might've saved my ass for a project I have today. I lack experience in drywall and struggle typically but trying to work smart today on a kitchen remodel. Sheetrock 90 it is!

Thank you so much. Fortunately I found this in time. I used the 45 and I was amazed at the gaps that I was able to take care of. I also did the screw head's as you suggested. You really saved me a lot of grief.

Great video. I had wide gaps in a couple areas of the sheetrock and you had the golden answer - quick-dry 90. Thank you, Sir. Well done.

That seems like a good bit of drywall advice, thank you! Appreciate this.

I'm prepping to replace the failing tape joints on my bedroom ceiling, and found huge half inch gaps between the ceiling, and wall from the installers not cutting the ceiling to the correct length. The drywall is 23 yrs old, and was nailed in so some of the boards moved on me when I did a test area above the doorway to see if I could pull it off with decent results. I ended up screwing the drywall back into place to make it solid again.
I'll be using 45 minute mud to get it all done. Hopefully one bag will cover it since I only have to do two walls. If it comes out nice enough I might fix all the bad joints in the house. My dining room's rear wall corner joints are round, and wavy. There's lots of areas that are what I call a DIY nightmare, lol. Thank you for inspiring me to handle all this on my own! The real sad thing is one of my neighbors is a licensed drywall business owner, but he didn't seem super interested in taking the job, and I can't afford him anyway, lol.

Thanks this gave me the info I needed but it would’ve helped to spend a moment explaining what sheet rock 90 is! Cheers

So im a lady who is going to attempt the mud and tape. There are pretty good gaps. My hubby got sick and can't finish so I'm gonna attempt it.
Thanks for the video it will help me.
