"Hector and his crew are excellent! They work with my schedule and they work fast while doing an excellent quality job. They turned my garage into a palace compared to how it was when I started. They reinforced the garage structure and put up drywall on the walls and created a new ceiling with new storage area above. Then the taped, textured and painted. My garage is now the nicest room in the house. Thanks Hector! - Paul V. - San Jose, CA."

"I went with this company to do a Drywall installation and painting on my Tuff shed. I could not be more delighted working with this company and their employees. Polite, hard-working, prompt, efficient and professional-- just a pleasure to work with a top-rate company after having so many poor experiences with other groups. Cannot recommend them highly enough."

"Bill was great to work with. He's very friendly, willing to explain things and worked hard to come up with a solution for OUR needs. We had a hard move-in deadline that was only one week away, and Bill's crew miraculously pulled it off. 
I spoke with Bill several times by phone to establish the appointment and discuss options. He was always very friendly and it's obvious that he has a passion for his work - very knowledgeable and interested in the details. We established price and timing, and he handled all matters related to purchasing the paint and materials. The crew always arrived on time and never appeared to slack off. Every single day they put in longer hours than was included in the invoice. They were very polite and nice guys, and got the work done so fast it made our heads spin.
In terms of the work that was done, they pressure washed the exterior and painted both body and trim. On the interior (master bedroom), they put up new drywall and patched some damaged existing drywall, then textured and painted the entire room. They also put in new trim, painted the window trim, moved a few outlets back into the wall and many other details that weren't even in the bid. That's just how Bob works. He wants to do a good job and make customers happy. They came back a few days later for routine touch-ups on the exterior, and spent hours making sure that every last detail was right!
I would definitely recommend Fine Point Painting to anyone, and will use them in the future if the need arises.

Drywall questions, answered by experts

There are a few ways to figure out if your walls are plaster or drywall, but the pushpin method is probably the easiest option. To try it, choose a part of your wall where you can insert a pushpin or thumbtack without leaving an obvious mark. If it goes in easily, you have drywall. But if the wall is tough to penetrate, that’s plaster.

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.

The cost to skim coat drywall is $1.15 to $1.35 per square foot. Most of the cost is labor, for the necessary skills to apply the skim coat with precision using high-quality tools. This is a job better left to the professionals for the best outcomes.

If you plan on heating your garage, you must install a vapor barrier when drywalling the garage. A vapor barrier protects your garage from frost and mold that can occur through condensation. If your garage is unheated, you don't need to install a vapor barrier. The only exception is if you regularly crank the heat in your car before getting in it. In this case, you may still want to install a vapor barrier, as your car can heat your garage.

Whether you apply the drywall mesh before or after drywall mud depends on the type of patch it is. For self-adhesive patches, you’ll put the patch down first and then coat it with mud. Mesh patches that are not self-adhesive will require you to put mud down first and then press the mesh into it, followed by additional coats of mud.
