"After submitting my request on Angi, Alan called me within minutes to schedule an appointment to asses my drywall repair needs and give me a quote for my garage. He was able to suggest a good mud/plaster job over my existing drywall instead of new drywall which would save me time and money. He and his team were able to deliver the project on time and did a good job."

"I needed a 20x20 hole in my wall repaired. The hole was caused by electrical work and these guys came in and replaced the drywall and mudded it in exceptional fashion. Their work and professionalism is outstanding and you can't be the price."

"We just recently had gone through another nightmare experience with another shady contractor and numerous shenanigans involving substandard work, excuses, and many lies. The contractor that we fired left our remodeling job unfinished and with several major corrections to be made to the work that they did do. Frustrated and fed up, we found Ben and Total Construction Remodel. Ben came in and immediately assessed the finish work that needed to be done and the work that needed to be fixed and gave us a fair quote. From the day that Ben, his son and their crew first showed up to the day that they finished, they were professional, efficient, courteous and never made any excuses. They showed up on time every day and handled every single one of our concerns perfectly. They also went to the trouble of covering everything properly and cleaning everything every single day that they were here. The contractor before left an absolute dusty mess every day and left a great deal of the work unfinished. Ben’s work was finished beautifully and on time and we were provided with receipts for everything. We also got Ben’s personal assurance that if anything needed to be fixed, he would handle it right away. We love our new living room and can’t wait to have guests in it one day. Thank you, Ben for making good on every single promise, doing excellent work and making us feel comfortable about doing business with you. We strongly recommend Ben, his son and Total Construction Remodel for any job you may have and he will definitely be the one that we call For all of our future remodeling needs."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

When sanding drywall mud, you’re going to create a very fine dust that may contain silica. Silica dust contains crystalline silica, which can cause long-term illnesses for people who inhale it in significant quantities. Wear a mask while sanding drywall. Then dampen a drywall sponge to wipe the dust off the drywall, helping to reduce the amount of dust that may become airborne.

Drying alone can take 1 to 4 hours to dry to the touch per plaster layer, but some types of plaster take several hours longer to dry. However, this doesn’t mean the job is done because plaster doesn’t fully harden until it cures, which can take a few days to a couple of weeks. It may take even longer if you’re building a new, pretty thick plaster wall. Allow the plaster to cure before painting it.

Yes, it is possible to rewire a house without removing the drywall, but this doesn’t work in all homes. You can pull out old wires and insert new ones if you have access to the wiring system via the ceiling or through a crawl space. Some pros can also use a magnetic kit to fish the old wire out of the wall through a hole cavity and install the new wires. Just keep in mind that doing this is less stable than removing drywall, as you won’t be able to staple the wires into the framing.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.

Brick and stucco are a lot more different. You must use picture hanging clips designed for brick walls, or use a plaster rail system with adjustable hooks. Any other type of hanging hardware will cause damage to the bricks behind. You won’t be able to really use nails, either, because they’re not strong enough to go into the bricks.
