Broken wall in my house?

Question

i was walking down the stairs to my house when i fell into the wall to my left a little bit. not a big fall, just kind of slammed into it a LITTLE bit. anyway, part of the wall broke and caved in! i dont know why it did that because i hardly touched it. my dad is angry because i also accidentally broke my wall in my room. the walls in my house are weak. what do i do? how can we get it fixed? thanks

You can go to your local hardware store and purchase some plaster of Paris, and some mud, I could go into it but here is a step by step how to for you:

Places like Lowes or Home Depot sell sheet rock ratch kits. Comes complete with some mesh tape or screen, plastic putty knives and the wallboard compound to fix your walls. Real small holes can be fixed with a little tub of spackling compound. Don't try to use stuff you have to mix yourself as you may not get the right consistancy.

Do some internet surfing for terms like sheetrock repair, drywall repair and you will find a million tips.

Answer 3

better get a termite inspection first! do you mean the wall studs actually broke in? do you have siding? what about jip rock under the siding or brick? if you mean the wall studs actually broke, well you have issues!

as far as your room goes, i'm assuming you just mean the sheet rock, right? man, i hope so.
