Re: There's a Better Way: Large Drywall Patch

i always keep 2" strips of 3/8" or 1/2" plywood in my truck. i install them around the perimeter of the hole about an inch in leaving an inch exposed in the hole. then screw the patch to the exposed strips this keeps the patch and the wall even all around.
