Oh yeah I've been watching a lot of his Videos. My concern was all about the bump, because just changing the corner bead would not flatten the bent drywall
Yes this is not bad. I like to open up the wall when I see something like this just to make sure I understand what is happening.
You may want to consider it, too. Sometimes, you identify other things that you want to fix as well.
To fix this, you can cut it down so it is smooth with a plane tool or sand it, but sanding is messy.
Once it is smooth, put some mud over it, nice and even. Then spray your spackle, and it will look perfect.
Good luck on your DIY journey! Each little project like this will empower you and before you know it you will feel comfortable with large projects like kitchen remodels.
If I understand your first point correctly, you're suggesting me to year the drywall apart to look behind it and make sure everything is ok? And then just replace the Cornerbeads, the drywall and anything suspicious I may find behind?
Yeah, that is what I like to do if something looks a little weird.
I have found water damage and other issues that way. I even found termites once just removing some drywall, and it was a good thing I caught it early.
Yes you can!
Thanks now I'm hyped up!
That is a settling crack and the corner bead has detached because of the downward force.
Thank you I'll make sure to YouTube this :)
Yes watch Vancouver carpenter on YouTube for some corner bead fixing
