So a new customer called. He had a finished basement where the pipes in the ceiling had sprung a leak. So the plumbers had busted up a section of ceiling to fix the leak, and then made 2 more holes in the ceiling to install new plastic pipes.
So, below, pix of the process of fixing 2 of the 3 holes . . .
Now we wait for the textured joint compound to dry so we can paint it.
This job was extra tough, on top of being a ceiling, because I had to CAREFULLY cut out old drywall to make a square opening . . . without damaging the new pipes. There were old drywall screws everywhere that were hanging on for dear life. And I had to improvise ways of puttingsupport strips in to attach the new drywall patches, again, without damaging pipes. The big hole was extra tough but I did it.
obviously I did not get a pic of the finished version with tape and joint compound . . . Anyway A little primer, a little ceiling flat white, and it will be good as new.
