How do I fix drywall going over an edge and corner by a window?
This got damaged years ago by someone trying to set something heavy on it. The wall under it is slightly buckled, but it's just superficial damage (nothing weird structurally compressing it or anything). I've done small flat drywall repairs, but nothing around a corner or with this amount of extra material. I assume I cut out the buckled drywall all the way down the the floor, put new drywall in, and then what? Pull out the broken material and slap on a bunch of mud and sand it flat? Or is that plaster? Can I just fill in the thin vertical crack, or does that need to be removed and redone? submitted by /u/Househouse1778 [link] [comments]
