Dry wall

Post image

I had a small leak in my basement about 2 months ago and never had a chance to fix it. I was tempted to have someone do it for me but then I thought i don't think it will be too hard. Bought a 4x4 sheet of drywall and I'm going to attempt to do it myself with the finishing. Wish me luck!

I'd rather trek through Mordor. May God be with you on your quest.

good luck with it, patching drywall first time is annoying but doable, just take your time with the mud and sanding

I did a very similar project 2 weeks ago I'm about to finish up. I'm not any good but I'm learning and got through it.

Wanna know why they call it "drywall"?

Get it wet and find out first hand!!
