Patching drywall from electrical work
I recently had an electrician come in to run power to a staircase that
was dark. In order to extend the power, he had to cut several circular holes in the drywall or the ceiling to reach the existing power. He left behind the holes he cut, so in theory it should be easy to replace the hole, but I'm struggling with how to patch the holes in the ceiling. I tried just using spackle/paste around the edges, but the problem I ran into was that it was difficult to keep the hole piece flat and flush with the existing ceiling. How can I patch this effectively? Many thanks in advance.... --charlie |
