Reply to comment by portnux in Had a plumbing issue upstairs, now i need to replace a ceiling drywall cutout used to access the plumbing from below. My progress is below, and im now nervous about the consequences of adding the joint compound without an actual joist or wood anchor behind it. Is this patch temporary or should i be by jrab3717
Your suggestion works, but it depends on if the cutout was flush with the framing because there wouldn't be room for the drywall overlap on to the existing drywall for at least part of the patch if it was because the wood would be in the way.
