How to repair a hole in a drywall from an outlet
The simplest thing that comes to mind is to seal up with polyurethane foam, cut off the excess and plaster. And without polyurethane foam? Why buy a balloon? Maybe there is a cheaper way? If there are trims from the gypsum board, then this can be done as shown in the video:
Or there is also such a way:
1. Cut a rectangular hole in the damaged part of the wall. We need wooden blocks and a few screws. In this case, the drywall insert will not fall inside - it will abut. If the hole is large, then we fasten the bars from the inside as stops for the plasterboard insert.
2. If the hole is smaller. All that remains is to fill in the seams, plaster and paint the wall in the same color.
3. The third slide shows a way to hold a wooden block.
By the way, when painting walls - always save, write down colors according to the RAL system (or in which system tinted paint) - according to the color number, you can always tint the purchased small jar with paint.
Another way if there is no bar. To do this, you need to fix the rope in a piece of gypsum plasterboard, spread it with glue (liquid nails) or plaster mortar. In order not to hold the rope, you can tie it to the leg of a chair or table. After that, you can also glue a piece of gypsum board onto the plaster and plaster it on top.
How to install a warm floor - a secret technology
Advice for preparing the screed before installing an electric floor heating. If part of the room will be covered with tiles (but with a warm floor), and the other will be laminated, then under the laminate, it will be necessary to raise the level of the screed (under the warm floor, a large thickness of glue is needed - floor will rise). We need a large volume of self-leveling floors.
You can save money, do the opposite: you need to grind part of the screed surface under the tile and knock it down with a puncher. Thus, lower the screed level. And thus, the overall level of the surface under the laminate and tile will be the same.
Method of filling joints between tiles
Method from the most accurate master. Yes, it takes longer, but you do not need to scrub the tile from the aggregate later. And if you are late in this, the joint grout will gain strength and it will be even more difficult to do it. I know I did. As a result, this method will be faster in terms of the final result.
