Spread a little compound around the hole. Lap mesh tape over the hole.
Let dry. Then apply more compound, pushing it through the mesh to build
up a fairly thick coat on the backside. Sand the repair lightly when
it's dry, then recoat with a wider knife. Sand when dry, then recoat
with an even wider knife. Easy as pie. Tom


or if its bigger, cut out the hole, and insert some wood behind it. The
wood shoudl be wider thatn the hold or taller, but not both so you can
hold it while you screw into it through the existing drywall. Then cut
a new piece of drywall and screw that onto the board you just screwed
in. Then tape, mud, and presto.
