I can't remember if you mentioned it in the video but why not rip that half of the ceiling down, drywall it and then plaster. Id imagine you would have been able to do that in the same time frame no? I know you were paid to do the plaster only but just wondering. I know you mentioned in other videos why you decided to plaster instead of just restarted but what was the reason for this? Great video btw
Because there is no such thing as “just rip it out” It seems so fast in your head but it’s a huge messy job that requires triple the prep, triple the cleanup and disposal at least. Once you are halfway through “just ripping it out” you begin to understand that you could literally be finished the job already.
@@smartbuildengineering we had all of our second floor ceilings over boarded with 1/2" lightweight drywall because a previous owner tried to cover cracks with painted wallpaper and it looked godawful, and tearing an entire floor of plaster ceilings out in an occupied house with who knows how much lead paint buried in there was not happening. So far so good. Couple of spots where the seam at the wall didn't get enough mud under the tape but no cracks or obvious sagging. We redid all the electrical after and the boxes are flush to the new ceiling level.
I have done tons of free repairs simply because I had hot mud and didn't want to throw it out. It's just as easy to quick fill as it is to dump in in the trash.
Wait until you run into the homeowner that wants you to repair the wall, including paint, because you started it. And they don't have any touch up paint. And if you don't think anyone would be like that, you are naive.
@@nailbanger2 Usually the wall is getting painted but the repair work on it wasn't charged for. Other times, I either gauge them beforehand or say something after the fact like ‘hey, I fixed that hole in the wall over here for you’ or ‘this may not hold, but I filled that crack you were pointing out’. Hasn’t backfired in 10 years. Has generated more money and happiness though
I know this was a bunch of your worst presentations but I was really happy about this because my boyfriend just fired his handyman for taking 4 months and have nothing done. I'm standing down a lot of bad drywall taping and almost brave enough to do a little on my own. It's an old property and all of the videos I've been seeing are about perfection and it's making me daunted. Yours was about what it takes! It takes guts🤣 and I'm going to make what is horrible a little better and then we're going to paint it so you've given me hope. Thanks!
You should do a video of full length butt joint taping and mud...from floor to ceiling. I'm currently trying to tape and mud a manufactured home that previously had the strips covering the joints. It would be great for some pointers. It's is not easy especially when the framing is not flat. I'm doing my best though.
I carry a small flash light to check the surface when sanding. I've never seen you use one. It helps me alot to see imperfections. You did use led light at the end to show the high/lows. A tiny key chain flashlight would work. Enjoyed the rush job. Still looked professional to me.
As a recovering perfectionist, it took a lot of time & willpower before I stopped trying to turn every bowl of chicken poop into a bowl of chicken soup.
I bet this will hold for a long time, and it looks halfway decent. The tenant will likely not even know, and even if they do they probably wont care. Sometimes the "proper" fix isn't the best fix.
I’ve done lots of this. You need to use glue(no more nails, PL) with the plaster washers. Where the plaster lost its key, you drill a 1/4” hole through, fill with glue, then screw the plaster washers up until the glue oozes out. Work from solid to weakest area. Should a large chunk fall out I have 1/4” rock on hand and patch it into the lathe. Then skim it all with 90 and it works! The glue re- key’s it. 😀
This going to be Giant Peach part II. 😂😂I watched the whole damn thing again. Ben there's something to your freestyle work and talk method. Excellent video.
Hey what’s up brotha. I’m down here in Southern California and been watching you for a little while. I for some reason have the hardest time with taping and muddying. I would love to have a training session with you the next time you’re here in the states. Let me know if you would be interested in a paid training demo.
When you are use to doing nasty repairs, it's not and unrealistic expectation. But like anything, there's more than one way to do a repair and as long as it looks good in the end, that is all that matters.
Pretty horrible that place is being rented as it is. I rented a room in a house when I was a student ( 45 years ago) in a college town in the Monterey Bay. Our shower wall was made with formica, with metal edges, and a bunch of sealant on the edges. All the walls were covered with 1/4 inch drywall, to cover up all the damage underneath. The carpet was a dark green outdoor felted carpet that was glued to the floor. What I did when I was young, man oh man...
Slightly unrelated pre-fill question: Any opinion on using spray foam to pre-fill gaps, rather than using hot mud? Some people swear by it, but I have only ever done it the way you taught me a few years ago 😂.
DO NOT use spray foam. It is not hard enough. Some repairs will be fine this way and some will fail. Do you really want to gamble with your patches like that?
@vancouvercarpenter my boss has us use spray foam but I v cut the foam and use the green bucket so there is some base to it. Seems to work ok so far I'm just using the spray foam to keep the mud from falling out the back if that makes sense. Will say I'm a noob still
What's funny to me is this "quick down and dirty" job is better than the majority mudders out there doing their "best" work... it appears someone in this video might be a bit of perfectionist?
@@malkyprijemny7077 makes no difference…the firring strips would have supported the plaster and the ceiling would have looked brand new in about the same time. Plus it wouldn’t have added all the weight. The only negative is you would have lost 1.25 inches of ceiling height
The question rather is why do it that way? Landlord does not want to pay, you have 12 hours, if that to do the work. Your idea adds costs, tools, materials, messing with electrical and we have no clue (hypothetically) how big that ceiling is.
@@okkrom I do see your point. After watching Ben, he is much more efficient with skim coating as where I am more efficient on new drywall. The room appeared to need no more than 2-3sheets but possibly bigger as we only were seeing one viewpoint.
Love the longer form video here. Really great to see the full thing from start to finish with very few cuts. I recently did a similar plaster repair but for about 50 wall cracks and fibafuse and confill were an absolute lifesaver
Woo, landlord special!! Plus this (presumably) being in Vancouver, that tiny little 5'x7' room likely rents for $10,000/month! LOL This is absolutely a "real-world" fix, though! People will get angry over it, but if the repair lasts to the customer's needs and expectations, it looks acceptable, and is within the budget, then it's a good repair. I absolutely love your extra-wide little two-step ladder!
I’ve never seen fibre fuse sheets and plaster washers before… Very cool! Being a drywaller/carpenter/skateboarder in Wagga Wagga Australia your videos always make me smile 😊
Having just spent the last few weeks fixing the damage done to our plaster walls during knob and tube replacement, your plaster repair videos have been a life saver. I feel lucky to live in a place where Concrete Fill is available, it really is the perfect tool for this kind of thing and I never would have thought to use it without your videos.
This is a very good video. I take care of several rentals with plaster walls and ceilings. Especially when you have to do a repair with tenants living there, it can be very messy to take down the ceiling and put a new plaster or drywall. It does not have to be perfect. I just wish we had concrete fill or something similar in USA.
Thanks for teaching me that "plaster washers" are a thing. Previously I had used fender washers in similar situations. I'm a 70-y-o DIYer and it's amazing all the simple tools and parts that I'm not familiar with. Just a few weeks ago I learned that a "drill block/ drill guide" is a very useful $7 tool.
31:48 this. It can be so difficult sometimes to just do what a client wants, even if we don’t agree with it, or know it can be done better. But you’re so right that setting our own ego aside to just do what is asked is an important skill, too
Indeed. It’s fascinating that he feathers the edge before smoothing! I’ve always done it the opposite but I was wrong! It’s a better finish if I do it Ben’s way!
Your serious levels of expertise in knowing exactly which little tweaks in materials and techniques are important is what makes the success of the project. Thanks for sharing!
Looks just like my house when I moved in after it served as a frat house for 20 years LOL. cathartic to watch as the perfectionist in me struggled with tackling an eerily similar sight
Just wanted to thank you for your videos. Just repaired a hole today that I have been holding off for awhile and as a 33 year old dad, I just bought my first complete skateboard at a local skateshop since 2008. Your videos have inspired me to learn drywall and get back into skateboarding
8:23 to 9:27 was totally the Bob Ross moment of your channel. I mean, i generally watch you and Bob Ross for probably the same reasons that haven't anything to do with painting or drywalling. Now you just need to save some little critter and keep it in your pocket.
I've screwed drywall right to concrete block by using tapcons through plaster washers. They pulled in enough to mud over them OK. The reason for the washer was partly that drilling through the drywall into the block made too large of a hole for the screw to hold otherwise. This sped it up enormously and has held up well for years. Perfectly happy with my hack job 😁
If you ever have to do it again, what I’ve seen guys do is put liquid nails on the side adhering to the concrete and then tapcon through 2x4 strips on the front to hold in place until the adhesive cures, then pull the tapcons and wood strips and you’re good to go.
I actually get paid to make rooms look like that, with the cracks and peely paint. When there’s work, movie work, that is. I’ve also stayed in a hotel in Paris, way back in the day, that had burlap stapled to the ceiling which was holding loose plaster. I also plastered over a deeply texted ceiling where I attached my shoes to old cat litter containers to use as sort of stilts.
u need the level 5 2ft blade. Amazing for skiming cheater code gets it perfect. u should make a vid using one on flats & butts u can almost get away with one coat crazy! I've been watching your videos for awhile great content very humble person # TRADESMAN
Hi mate, enjoying your work from Australia! wondering what your thoughts are on taping with cornice cement instead of base coat? Saw a video here in Australia of a bloke using it claiming added strength, didn’t really like what I saw but wondered if you’d done or heard of it? Thanks mate, Dave
Hello! I just discovered your channel as I have some touch ups and repairs in drywall to do in our new home. I have found some recommendation in some of your videos for a good drywall trowel. I have not found one on a canadian website though... Since you often talk about Canada, I was wondering if you'd maybe be able to recommend me a place where I could buy one in the 12in size? Thanks and keep up the good work!!

@vancouvercarpenter oh I definitely know how a job can get increasingly longer once you open things up. Haha. Been there.
If there are no lights etc. in the ceiling over-boarding with 9mm drywall could have been another solution. The additional weight wouldn't worry me.

That was a room for a Hobbit, and no - you couldn't pay me to live there. "That portion" of the ceiling looks a whole lot better than it did.
What is the grip tape on your trough? Looks very helpful in griping it, reducing hand fatigue.
I think I'm going to be doing my first job at a high school that will require me to add some glue. Appreciate your professionalism. 👍
Could have overboarded it. as long as you hit the joists with decent screws you'd be fine especially with the size of that ceiling.
“Pigeon farming” 😂🤣😂🤣😅
Yes! we know what you are talking about!!! Good Enough!
My phone screen is so cracked that the ceiling looks just the same as when we started.
When you are use to doing nasty repairs, it's not and unrealistic expectation. But like anything, there's more than one way to do a repair and as long as it looks good in the end, that is all that matters.
Finally seeing a video of you looking like me doing mud 😂 Dripping all over the place. 😂
Giving the customer what they ask for is still a skill, even when it goes against your normal standards of workmanship.
Ya need to “feather that T-shirt” Ben; don’t think I’ve ever seen you wear that much mud home! Lol
Wow you’re fast! I actually thought you sped up the video, but you didn’t 😂. Fun to watch you not go slow and just go after it!
