Default Patching drywall from electrical work


Hi,

You can get some nylon mesh (tape or square patch, depending upon
how large the holes are) at your local hardware store. Put that on
much like you would do a corner with a very thin layer of spakling
(fill the mesh holes and enough to tape it to the sides) and let it
dry. When it dires, then put a second spacking layer on a little
heavier and then sand it smooth. That works like a charm.
