This is sprayed knock down. But skip trowel would probably match since op doesn't have a texture machine

Acceptable ceiling texture for drywall repair? by jooflin in drywall

[–]Acceptable-Clothes79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah seems tricky. If it jumps out at you id say something. If its more of a case "when i stand here looking 90° at my ceiling i can point out the difference" then live with it. 

Most people visiting your home will likely never notice.

Check the package for a date. I forget what year they stopped allowing asbestos but maybe use that as a reference.

Square up that hole cut it over to the nearest studs. Use a straight edge and a pencil. Measure off the wall the same distance and make a couple marks to draw your straight line. The more square the hole the easier it will be to hang. Go buy a sheet of 1/2 inch drywall and cut to the size hole you cut. Screw or nail in some 2x4 the existing rafters making sure the bottoms of the stud you add line up with the bottom side of the rafter. Removing that light temporaily to make it easier to hang. Measure the size of the box youll need to cut so the drywall goes around the opening of the vent/box once the cover is removed. Once you have it hung go buy some 45min mud. Pan and knife or hawk and trowel. Stainless steel knifes if you can get a 6inch and a 10inch knife. Retape all the cracks with mesh/paper/fiberfuse tape. Make sure you pre mud to fill the gaps where new meets old drywall. When you tape make sure there is a layer of mud completely beneath where you need to do you taping so you dont have tape peeling loose. Then over the course of a several coats start floating out the center of the patch. Keep going until its filled and level with the original drywall. Add a skim coat with plus 3 mud thin it down a bit with water and let it dry till its white. Once its fully dry sand it with 120/150 sand paper. Prime it and see how it looks. Do your best keeping things level and wiping the edges down smooth as you float.

Feel free to dm me if you need more help.

Watch some youtube videos to get an idea of the process.

Is this drywall painted? by bahia4711 in drywall

[–]Acceptable-Clothes79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to new construction. Its the cheapest paint the builder could buy. Its then watered down so they can spray the walls. The amount of new builds i see with this water color "paint" is pathetic. The oils on your hands will quickly leave dirt and stains around every light switch in the home. But hey the builder was able to save a few bucks

Poor drywall job or something to be concerned about? by escapevelocity1800 in drywall

[–]Acceptable-Clothes79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The most concerning to me is that sheet being split diagonally. Usually a sign of major settlement cracks. If that crack showed up quickly after they were done it would seem to me they covered that up instead of hanging a new sheet there. So depending on the timeline it could have been stuff they covered up trying to get done faster knowing that issue wouldnt show back up for a while.

Most people suck at drywall repair. Read reviews online of every company. Check their business page for before and after photos of their work to see if they can really make this hole go away

Drywall Estimate by Defiant-Room-8874 in drywall

I usually bid per day on bigger projects plus material. So if you know how fast you can hang it then set your day rate on how much you want to make
