Suggestion: instead of cutting a square hole and then making a square patch to fit, make the square patch first and then hold it up to wall and trace around it with a pencil, then cut the square hole along the drawn line

Thanks for your feedback! Did you try out this California patch yourself?

I have been doing this without keeping the paper on the front and using that tape… it’s impossible to do well. This seems so obvious now that you’ve shown me… it’s super helpful. I’m going to finally patch that bloody thermostats hole with this method, thanks!

Hi there! Which material are you looking for?

Why can't i save the video to a playlist?

Hello, to save this video to a playlist click on the 3 dots at the far right below the video, then "+save".

You can put mud on the patch instead of trying to prefill and only put mud around the hole in the wall

Is this technique better than using the tape and a wood backer?

Hello, there are many different techniques which will give you the same result.

It just seems wrong to put a hole in a wall just to fix it. But better yours than mine. 😊👍 Also this patch just seems fun to do. I secretly want holes to happen to practice on. 💪😁🤙

This has to be the weirdest California patch I’ve seen. It’s so weird it’s not even a California patch.

Wrong. Cut the drywall first and use it to trace the hole to be cut. Dont us easy sand 20, use 45, its easier to sand.

Maybe suggest checking there isnt any wires or pipes behind the wall before you start sawing into it?
