A typical railing …
A typical railing bracket mounts into a wall stud if you can remove it and place it on the closest wall stud that would be best.If that cannot be done then I would cut the patch from stud to stud and nail a 2×4 between for an anchoring point.Hope this helps===Bob

Home Depot should have everything you need.Mud is actually drywall topping .Cost for a six inch mudding knife you can expect to pay 5/6 dollars razor Knife 3/4 dollars small amount drywall and topping compound 7/8 dollars.This should be enough to do several small repairs as described in video.Hope this helped===Bob

Great info I have done alot of personal work on my homes and I had patched up a couple of holes made from doorknobs and I had never thought doing the repair like that. That is great, no tape and no screws. Cant wait to try it out some day. Thanks

Great informative video, but adjust your audio levels! That part at the end made me jump!
If your wondering …
If your wondering why the finished patch looks different than the rest of the wall, don’t forget to sand smooth and then texture. Best way to texture a small hole like this is with the cans of texture spray you can buy at the hardware store. Practice on a side piece before using it on the wall so you can get a match. When dry don’t forget to prime before you paint.
Good Luck

I would not go any bigger than a 10inchx10inch hole.I would make sure surrounding area is screwed up tight and if your patch does extend over existing framing I would throw a screw in it while I was bedding patch===Bob Good Luck!

I get it square your hole to the paper patch size. That would make it easier to measure! Excellent! Thanks for sharing that.===Bob You know that seems obvious but somehow I still missed it–lol
A Friend of mine …
A Friend of mine showed me that patch, but with a difference, cut your patch with extra paper around the edges, that’ll leave you a square plug, Place and Trace, then cut out HEAVY on your cutout line. Thanks, Ron
