What happens here

Once the drywall patch is cut, it may need minor trimming to achieve a perfect, snug fit within the prepared opening. Use a utility knife to carefully shave off small amounts of material from the edges of the patch until it sits flush and securely in the hole.

Goal: Achieve a tight and flush fit of the drywall patch within the existing hole.
