A third way is to cut a couple of lengths of timber (about 1"
square profile) to twice the length of the hole. Feed behind
the hole bridging across at about ¼ and ¾ of the way
down, and fix in place by screwing through the existing
plasterboard using plasterboard/drywall screws. (It's easiest
to start the screws off in the plasterboard before holding the
timber in place behind the hole.) Do the drywall screws up so
the heads sink about a mm below the plasterboard surface, so
you can fill the holes. Now cut a piece of plasterboard to
fit in the hole (it mustn't be thicker than the existing
plasterboard). Screw this to the timber pieces using plaster-
board screws in the same way. Use filler to fill the cracks
and the screw heads, and to bring the new piece of plasterboard
up to the existing wall surface if the new plasterboard is
thinner than the original.
