Step 2: Measure and mark the patch
Measure the area to be cut out and filled by the patch. Use a tape measure to mark the boundaries for a rectangular patch. Use a framing square to mark sharp, 90-degree corners for the patch and a level to make sure the lines are square and plumb. Mark all lines on the wallboard surrounding the hole.
