I have been doing some repairs on some of my drywall. I started watching your videos for some drywall tutorials. You are an awesome teacher. At age 68 this female just did here first California patch. My husband was most impressed with the end result. ❤❤
Thanks! I like your friendly style of instruction. I've learned a lot. I'm working on my UA-cam studio, attempting my first drywall job ever. I would hate to think what it would be like without your videos. You're like the good friend you call when you're stuck and need help.
Thats such an expensive thing to do. Skim coating an entire house that has texture? If a house has texture and the wall and cieling like this literally every inch of wall space in closets etc would need to be skim coated it's not realistic Smh 😂 surely youre joking @richeyrich2203
I've been mucking around with drywall, mud, spackle, etc. for years as Joe Homeowner. I came here to figure out how to match a textured wall that I've never had before. This video was probably the best yet to help me tackle this 2X3 foot patch where a room air conditioner was. I LOVE the trick with the patch keeping the paper on! I've never seen that before and it's brilliant! Thanks for all the help!
I was freaking out just thinking of a 2x2 patch..and every time I see a patch it's like they never watched a pro like this. Nice job and thank you for putting in the work and not a weekend warrior style. 👍
Jeff this is the best patch job video anywhere. Here where I live it’s almost always knockdown texture on the walls. You are really the best teacher and a hell of a Jack of all trades, thank you.
Talking about texture……. Following your wise instructions, fixed my home office celling in less than 15 minutes plus some time for preparation. CONGRATULATIONS!!! I have follow your videos for some time and learning on every of your videos🙏❤️🙏
Thank you my friend I do not believe there is a video of yours that I have not watched. I work maintenance 7 days a week and apparently binge watch it seven nights a week. Thanks again.
Great video, step by step experiencing the live application is a great way to experience the application before wasting a can of texture. Well done, great job.
Yes finally we get a textured repair video! Lol!!! I love how you explain things with simplicity and with real life applications! Thank you Jeff for all your knowledge and your care for other people especially in Texas.
I’ve been patching my walls after removing cheap fixtures and towel holders so I’ve been getting by with the fix not being textured. I’ve been looking for this video before starting the closet renovations lol
Helo from Az. I have seen many videos on DIY from UA-cam University. No question yours are the best. Your flow of instruction along with demonstration and comparison make hard projects easy to do. Matching texture is an art you made doable for knuckle draggers like me. You have a new subscriber.
Jeff as you may or may not know from my comments... I am a DIY'er and ex Handyman but I gotta say I find your videos most educational and informative. Keep up the good work. God Bless.
If I just need to fill a small hole that doesn't require taping and blending out into a much larger area, like your 2 smaller hole repairs, I will then wipe off the new excess mud around the hole with a damp rag or sponge, leaving just the small previous 1" diameter hole area to texture. No sanding. Great video as always, Jeff. I love to show them to my son who is out of the air force now & wants to flip houses with me.
Jeff you are so awesome , I watched your tile repair and I plan to watch more of your video's. I can not thank you enough. I was really upset seeing a broken backsplash tile. You helped me have the confidence to fix it. Thanks so much, please keep posting these video's.
You have fun with your home repairs! That decreases anxiety for me as I look over the list of projects that I have to tackle. Thx for your great video content!
Glad I clicked on this video looking for how to texture a wall for a patch we just put on. I would have never thought of using a paintbrush. Genius. Also, thanks for the head's up on painting the whole wall once done. This wall is textured, but I sanded it down a bit and put primer on it. Patched the hole, then will primer the wall before painting. We have an area near our kitchen where there are about 2 or 3 spots (not small) that have a different sheen than the rest of the wall. Its been like that for over 15 years. I figured we must have ran out of paint and got the wrong sheen, but that doesn't make since as its only those spots that look different. The other guess is that a different mud compound was used on those spots, however same with the paint in saying that didnt make since either unless someone went over it again. It also doesn't look like a patch job either (its really high on the wall). In case, once we get to that wall we will be sanding down the texture a little bit, adding primer and painting with a new color. Thanks again!
I'm getting ready to do a pretty large patch and the nerves were high, but you are so much fun to watch and informative, I'm feeling a lot better about the project. Crossing fingers.
Hey, thanks again. I finished out a 6.5"x 8.5" California patch overnight and I'm shocked how good your instructions were. I've never done more with drywall than spackled some nail holes in rental walls, but I was able to hide that big hole pretty effectively even before I add paint! It wasn't cheap to get all the supplies but I'm sure it was a lot cheaper than hiring a pro.
Thank God for guys like you with years of experience taking the time to show us DIYers what we're doing wrong. Would love to see what you do when butted up against a corner. I was running ethernet and goal was to get close to the stud (to drill through) and using furring strips (before I discovered Cali patch through this) and had nothing to screw to on top or side. Made it work but it was u-g-l-y.
This great video helped me do my first drywall hole repair on a textured wall. It was a bit daunting at first, but I was so happy with the result that I felt like going around the house with a hammer and making more holes to fix. Here are a few lessons I learned. I had never used any kind of drywall compound before, so I used Dry Dex for everything. I watered it down with a few sprinkles of water. I think mud would have been better on the first two coats. After I was almost done, I finally found the 5, 20, and 45-minute mud products, as well as the premixed mud (which says 24-hour dry time and a small container costs the same as a bag of the dry mix--around $10). The drywall paper gets soggy very fast and can tear or get damaged. After this happened on the first patch, I primed it before the second application. This seemed to help. Texturing was like the Super Bowl of the project and caused great consternation. I used a spray can of knockdown product. The key was practicing on scrap material to see how the product actually works. After many tries, I realized this product matched my wall best when I just let it dry without scraping. I also applied it in multiple applications rather than all at once. Finally, I used the spray Kilz, but it left a powdery-looking finish. I prefer brushed-on primer. It will probably look the same after painting either way--I haven't finished yet.
16:28 ; 20:19- Totally Bob Ross Both the only way I'm able to renovate my entire house--and the reason I'm not done ('cause I'm watching his for fun)! Thank you, Jeff.
I just started doing a repaint of my whole house and I am so happy I found this video. You explain so well without a bunch of unnecessary comments and drag out the explanation. You make this so simple and walk us through it. You just got yourself another subscriber right here. Thank you!!
Perfect timing just found your video on repairing texured drywall after doing a plumbing repair in the house. I really like the California patch too! Great idea. 👏👍
You are my favorite handyman, youtuber. Thanks for sharing your knowledge 🙏 God bless you always and success in any field, whatever you do. Om mani padme hung 🙏🙏🙏
When you used the Alex caulk, you literally blew my mind!!!!!! Worked at paint department at home depot for 3 years, how did I never learn this awesome trick, to heck with the spray texture!!!
I use foam to back patches/fill gaps in drywall all the time... I used to think it was a hack, but the results speak for themselves... Glad to see i'm not the only one. On small repairs on some texture finishes trimmed foam with a single coat of 20 min followed up with a large nap paint roller looks like almost a perfect match. One thing I have found that works amazingly on deep /large repairs is fiberglass mesh tape pressed deeply into wet foam ... It dries hard and strong and keeps the mesh tape in place so you don't get sags, you can even sand it if it dries "proud" of the finished surface.
Just want to note that the canned aerosol knock down "patch repair" stuff is only good for walls and not ceilings. It just lacks the pressure needed to spray upward that a true hopper with a compressor would have. At least in my experience. Like to hear your opinion/guidance. For ceilings dabbing on the material as shown here is great. You can also use a ball of natural sponge which gives you a less uniform distribution as the pores are randomly sized. These can be bought online or from an import furniture store or body and bath boutique. Finally a trick I got from another drywall pro was when repairing and texturing - "read the wall". What he meant by this was you will see a direction to the knockdown. Its thick where the person started the stroke and thinner where it ended. If you replicate this directionality the light will reflect in a uniform way across the ridges. If you are contrary to the flow you will see the finish (satin, gloss etc) look weird. Even if you paint the entire wall or ceiling you cannot eliminate this as it is a light reflection/dispersion effect (like a lens flare). When I followed this simple tip I was stunned how good even lesser efforts looked.
Just started watching your videos, so you may have done this. An explanation of how to do all the different textures would be awesome. You give plenty of examples and details. I have only been shown how to do flat, dob and knock down. There are still many I need to learn. If you haven't yet I think that video would get alot of views. Like that ceiling pattern that looks like brushed out circles, I cant find that anywhere.
I just love to watch your videos! You make everything seem so doable. I have a texture that looks like drips. Not knocked down. I don’t think this came from a can or hopper, probably very wet drywall mud and a roller?
Fantastic tips. Thanks. One thing I do for the last step before texturing is with a wet sponge feather the edges more so it blends in better. Not so much as it remove too much mud. Find this works well too.
From Singapore: I always like your presentation and renovation ideas. They are always practical, doable and creative. Your down to earth and jovial spirit is good. Keep the videos coming.
Just a suggestion, a looped roller (small vinyl loops) used after applying compound let dry then use a trowel to strike down and match rest of wall. I think they are readily available for about $6.00 no hopper no equipment needed. Also for some of us impatient people I keep a small hand held hair blower to dry patches quickly. Love your channel especially after you work an area you go over it with your hand! If you feel it you will eventually see it. Great advise.
Good video. Wish my walls were that easy. I had to try and match a textured pattern. All 4 walls in my living room have a subtle overlapping swirl pattern in the plaster. That took so many tries to get close. Both the pattern, and the depth of the texture.
been looking for this video for years! I patched some holes and they are so smooth compared to the heavy knapp layers of paint finish, gonna try a roller and thinned mud!
Thanks for all of your videos, currently in the middle of some drywall work from moisture damage. My walls are unfortunately textured in what can only be described as road rash because that’s what you get if you rub up on it. With any luck I’ll be priming and texturing tomorrow.
🤯 I will admit, I was a little skeptical when I saw you put the caulk on the wall. Never seen it done that way, but thank you for sharing a new way to do this. All of the walls and ceilings in my house are textured in one way or the other. More skills for the toolbox. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Thanks man. I love your sense of humor. I always laugh through these videos so much I have to watch certain parts over hahaha. Today I wanted to install a new towel rod, the old one was mounted on a piece of wood. When I removed the old one, I saw it was covering a huge hole in the wall. I'm a new homeowner so completely unfamiliar with this. You really make it seem approachable, but we'll see how my california patch turns out.
I love the pink patch putty, makes it easy to know when its dry and you can sand, texture, and paint. It came in handy when i moved out of my apartment and into my house, even works great for hiding picture hook holes.
for anyone struggling to get the texture to match like me, they sell texture in a can in home depot and other paint places. still not a great match because they only have 3 different textures to choose from but way easier trying to match it from scratch. that stuff is like 20 bucks a can so thanks Jeff for the affordable options.
Thank you so much for having this video. I’ve 90 so I’m assuming two to three hours before sanding. How is the best way to do inside corners on the ceiling at the top of a wall.
I’m sooo happy I came across this video I’m heading over to Lowe’s first thing in the morning to buy the things to patch up a hole in the ceiling since I can’t seem to find a reliable repair man to fix it for me 😕 wish me luck 😅
I have been doing some repairs on some of my drywall. I started watching your videos for some drywall tutorials. You are an awesome teacher. At age 68 this female just did here first California patch. My husband was most impressed with the end result. ❤❤
I rarely start a home project without first checking to see if you have a video covering my project. Always clear and concise...much appreciated!
Thanks! I like your friendly style of instruction. I've learned a lot. I'm working on my UA-cam studio, attempting my first drywall job ever. I would hate to think what it would be like without your videos. You're like the good friend you call when you're stuck and need help.
Jeff, your personality and ability to fix anything around the house makes you my dream husband!
I am sure there is another one out there somewhere. Cheers!
You should get national awards in Canada and the U.S. for your teachings and work ethics. Thank you! 😎
I love how you help us diy'ers manage our expectations.
I just moved into a house that needs a ton of drywall repair and every single wall is textured. This video is a life / $$$ saver!!!
Me too, and this has made me realize I’m doomed with all the ridiculously shoddy patches the previous owner left. See you in a few yearsI guess.
Could always skim the walls and repaint smooth
Thats such an expensive thing to do. Skim coating an entire house that has texture? If a house has texture and the wall and cieling like this literally every inch of wall space in closets etc would need to be skim coated it's not realistic Smh 😂 surely youre joking @richeyrich2203

Hey Jeff! So glad I found your video with knock down texture! I removed my upper kitchen cabinets and boy do I need this! Thanks!
Thank you so much jeff. This video helped me save thousands in repairs to water damage.
Great video on repairing a textured wall 3 ways. Thanks for making this video for us.

Great! Thank you. I was trying to do the same to day with joint compound. Going back now to try with caulk. Thank you
Love how easy you are to follow. You’re the man! Appreciate it!
Monumental. Answers every question I have had for 1 month of searching
best one among hundreds on texture repair 👍👍👍
Thanks for all this information .
I’m a painter and I’m finding a good painter can also drywall …
Very helpful
You're the best no nonsense hole fixer with the best products. Accept no substitute I say.
FANTASTIC VIDEO!! Thank you for this one. I've always had textured walls and could never get the texture right.

Great video. I love all your videos. Please zoom in to see the texture in future videos
Thank you for the step by step and different options
thanks Jeff. I needed to fix ceiling following leak and your video was very helpful.
Knockdown Texture Sponges are also a good option. Great video, thanks!
Your my New Super Hero!! Thank you!! I have small gaps in my wall behind my wardrobe. I could do this. Cheers 🙌🏼✨😉
Great techniques! I have to cut a big hole in drywall to run some wiring. I'll try to use one of these techniques!
Good video. Wish my walls were that easy.
I had to try and match a textured pattern. All 4 walls in my living room have a subtle overlapping swirl pattern in the plaster.
That took so many tries to get close. Both the pattern, and the depth of the texture.

Jeff here is the most entertaining DIY person on the net.
From what I know, this is a lot of use full info! Thank you!!
Great video , sheetrock 45 , is called Gyproc 45 in the UK , same company .
Like your DIY videos.
I just wanted to say that you mix dry wall mud in a metal box tray to do small jobs such as this one.
Thanks. Well try your technique on my current Bath redo.
Really glad I found your channel. Thanks!
You have obviously been doing this a looong time! Thanks for making the video!
Mixing on the chuck above carpet, that's so bold!
The knowledge of this guy holds is incredible.
Very, VERY useful information. Thanks!
been looking for this video for years! I patched some holes and they are so smooth compared to the heavy knapp layers of paint finish, gonna try a roller and thinned mud!
Sir, you should be in charge of the entire planet's 'how to' videos. This is exceptional. Thank you!
That's amazing can't even tell there was eny damage on that wall good work iam hooked on watching you
The best UA-camr home Reno
Thanks for all of your videos, currently in the middle of some drywall work from moisture damage. My walls are unfortunately textured in what can only be described as road rash because that’s what you get if you rub up on it. With any luck I’ll be priming and texturing tomorrow.
I really enjoyed watching this video. Thank you so much!

This was awesome, great detail. Thank you! Getting started tomorrow.

Today I wanted to install a new towel rod, the old one was mounted on a piece of wood. When I removed the old one, I saw it was covering a huge hole in the wall. I'm a new homeowner so completely unfamiliar with this. You really make it seem approachable, but we'll see how my california patch turns out.
Great information!. I just wish the camera was looking at the area of interest so we could better visualize the process.
I love the pink patch putty, makes it easy to know when its dry and you can sand, texture, and paint. It came in handy when i moved out of my apartment and into my house, even works great for hiding picture hook holes.
for anyone struggling to get the texture to match like me, they sell texture in a can in home depot and other paint places. still not a great match because they only have 3 different textures to choose from but way easier trying to match it from scratch. that stuff is like 20 bucks a can so thanks Jeff for the affordable options.
I use those cans and spray in an ever widening circle
Thank you so much for having this video. I’ve 90 so I’m assuming two to three hours before sanding.
How is the best way to do inside corners on the ceiling at the top of a wall.
Bob Ross of home repair. 😊
Skip trowel finish like in the southwest ? Arizona, California, Thanks Great Videos
Just thought I would say that I really appreciate your videos. Finally subscribed. Your professionalism is awesome and worthy of imitation.
Great video! Thank you, I just learned the easiest way to repair a sheet wall. Can it be done the same way on cement wall?
I’m sooo happy I came across this video I’m heading over to Lowe’s first thing in the morning to buy the things to patch up a hole in the ceiling since I can’t seem to find a reliable repair man to fix it for me 😕 wish me luck 😅
Excellent video. Thank you for sharing.
I have used a wet sponge or rag also to do knock down as you say
Thank you for making these videos, it helped me fix some holes in my wall that i could not just spackle to fix
Thanks for the video. I have to repair a drywall joint crack in a textured ceiling.
you deserve lots of $ from youtubes for making such good educational content, thank you
