"Neftali & his team were extremely professional, timely, and overall great to work with. I had a medium sized bathroom dry walled, some old bad mudding seems repaired, as well as had a few holes patched in my laundry room. Understanding my job wasn't the biggest job on his docket, it still got done on time, under 2 days. I'm very pleased how everything turned out and pleased with his rates - they were very reasonable. I'd highly recommend NHV & his team - they were very professional and easy to work with"

"I contacted PatchMaster because of a friend who works for them. They sent out Blake and he was very polite and professional. He got the drywall repair done efficiently, didn’t make a mess, and cleaned up after himself. Great company overall!"

"Byron is knowledgeable . He had several helpful suggestions. He and his team are fast, efficient, and good. They had our deck torn apart, repaired, and painted in one day! Because the paint was so wet when they left, they came back the next day to see if it needed any touch ups. They did exactly what we wanted done. They also cleaned up and hauled off all the old stuff."

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

If your premixed drywall mud is dried out or has begun to set in the bucket, you may be able to revive it by adding warm water and stirring. However, the first and most important step is to scrape off any hard, dried bits of drywall that may have accumulated toward the top of the container and throw them away because they will not easily reconstitute back into the drywall mud mix.

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

You can technically just paint over hairline cracks in plaster since these cracks are often harmless, but this will mostly be a waste of paint. Paint will only hide the hairline crack for a few months before it shows up again. The best solution is to repair the crack with flexible filler or joint compound before repainting.

Plaster is a beautiful finish but is labor-intensive to install and remove. It’s vulnerable to cracking and more sensitive to moisture variance than drywall. Installing plaster on a new wall is an expensive process that can take days to weeks, depending on the scope. Removing a plaster wall can also be quite expensive and time-consuming.

You can put drywall mud over paint to even out the surface or entirely resurface it. Sand the surface with 280-grit sandpaper, vacuum the debris and dust with a shop vac, and clean it with a slightly damp cloth. Allow the surface to dry. Apply drywall primer, especially if you’re skim-coating an entire wall. Apply the right type of drywall mud over the surface and smooth it with a trowel. Allow the layer to cure fully, then sand it before applying another layer or painting it.
