"Level 5 arrived within the time window provided and quickly began to go to work.  Within minutes Chris realized that he did not have any materials to provide a dust barrier while they did their work (apparently the materials were somewhere else, and drywall work is very dusty).  I was able to provide him with some plastic to use and they draped the door to the bathroom.
The work on drywall appeared to proceed quickly with Chris and his son bringing in drywall and putting it up on the walls.  As this is a bathroom that is split between new and old construction and includes wall stud placement from previous but now removed windows, the placement of studs are not ideal for drywall installation.
As I observed their work, it became clear that Level 5 had forgotten more than just plastic to serve as a dust barrier.  They were also walking up and down my tiled porch and interior hardwood floors without any coverings on the porch or floor.  I had to pull my oriental rug out of the entry way because they were tracking drywall dust on it every time they walked the door.  I did not have any re-course on the hardwood floors in the hallway other than sending them home, so I hoped for the best when clean up came. 
Interestingly enough, my tile contractor arrived while Chris and team were working, and was appalled by the lack of floor protection that Level 5 had provided.  He thought it was completely unprofessional and that Level 5's action were damaging both the tile porch and definitely the hardwood floor.  The dust materials are abrasive, and do damage hardwood floor finishes. 
The recessed ceiling cans for the LED lights were filled not to the outside of the cans, but inside to the LED lights. I will have to clean out all the drywall mud so that the LED lights can move up/down to attached to their bezels.  Perhaps they are not familiar with these new types of lights, but it should have been obvious that filling inside the can is not proper technique.
At the end of the day, the crew did some cleanup.  They pulled out a broom and swept the bathroom and hallway, and washed down the porch.  And collected their check and left.  Their cleanup was very superficial...they did not have the equipment to do it right and I resigned myself to cleaning up after they left.  What I did not see initially was how much work that meant. Not only did we have to clean the floor multiple times (vacuum, dry mop, wet mop twice) to get the drywall dust out, but their use of the 'dust barrier' was such that it was not much of a barrier at all.  We had dust throughout the house, and needed to dust all of the first floor counter-tops and furniture and clean all the floors.  Overall, we spent more than 5 hours cleaning up for 7 hours of Level 5's work. 
While I appreciate Level 5's responsiveness to my quote request and getting to my job quickly, I can't recommend them for anyone doing a remodel within an existing house.  Their hygiene practices are possibly appropriate for new construction and maybe a garage, but I would not let them into my house again.   And I would not hire them to do my garage because I think their rates are too high for 'garage' work. 
By the way, my tile contractor had his crew in my house today...no worries or clean up on my part.  That is what I would expect, and I think that is a reasonable expectation."

"I absolutely recommend Thomas Rosas for drywall repair. I would hire him again if a need ever arose. Prompt and polite. Competitively priced. Great quality of work and extraordinary efforts to keep our home clean during an inherently messy job. He even called back after the job was done to be sure we were satisfied. Very pleased with the entire interaction with Thomas and the end result. Hire him! You will be glad you did."

"John power washed the entire house. A few days later, he appeared with a full crew for the job.  After carefully protecting and covering all of my new windows, the old stucco was preped and the new stucco applied.  The house looks like new and has an updated stucco pattern and we get rave reviewsabout how great it looks.  The crew was very professional and cleaned up everything perfectly when the job was completed.

"I hired Robert to paint my entire home after I suffered water damage that required extensive repair. I found Robert McKay to be an ethical professional who makes no excuses and gets the job done right. He cleaned up as he went, was organized, and thorough in his work. He pays attention to detail, which is important, and he is reliable, and flexible in working with your home issues and deadlines. I definitely will and have referred him to friends."

"I bought an Angie's list deal for dry wall repair but really they just spread some spackle on it and left it rough. I had to scrape off the blobs of spackle left on the ceiling. My boyfriend could have done the same job. I wanted them to actually replace the dry wall where it was cracking. Mainly they wanted to sell me more jobs and pushed me to sign on with them to get new insulation in the attic. I had them give me an estimate on rain gutters while they were here. Their estimate/prices are very high. I think they have to pay for all those people manning the phones. It sounds like a boiler room when they call."

"Before we moved in our newly purchased home, we needed to remove old, smelly popcorn ceiling in entire house, install new light box and fan box, also remove wall which divided living area. I got estimates from 3 contractors. Even it includes ceiling paint and re-texture kitchen ceiling, their estimate was the best. We got no-furniture discount too.
As they said in their website, they did remove popcorn ceiling in one. day. They finished whole project in only 2days!! (Well, my fan wasn't delivered yet when they finished their job, their electrician needed to come the other day to install new light and ceiling fan) Actually tiny amount of popcorn in one closet remained though, it's acceptable. 
Their job was very clean, they even fixed bad joint in the ceiling which we didn't know. The owner Danny Boyd is very kind and easy to reach. Their great job with lifetime warranty, I highly recommend them.

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

Whether you can install or repair plaster yourself depends on the project's size and your comfort level with DIY projects. It's possible to handle small repairs on your own, but for larger projects like a room restoration or a full installation, it's often best to hire a local plaster professional. The final appearance, even coverage, and durability of the plaster depend heavily on proper wall preparation and application. If you are not 100% confident in your ability to achieve a professional result, letting an expert handle the job is a worthwhile investment.

You will be placing holes in the wall to hang the mounting bracket. If you’re mounting a large TV, the bolts in use could make significant holes around half an inch in diameter. Other than a few holes, though, the process of mounting the TV should not cause significant damage to the wall, unless you make an error and miss the wall stud, tearing out drywall. Should you decide to remove the mount later, the DIY drywall repair cost for a small hole usually is $10 to $30. It’s a repair you can do in a few minutes.

It may take a bit of patience and trial and error to match your particular drywall texture type when making repairs. For orange peel or knockdown finishes, use a spray texture product or a thinned joint compound applied with a roller or sponge. Practice on scrap drywall or cardboard first. Once dry, lightly sand and prime before painting.

Your walls are likely cracking due to fluctuations in the temperature outside. Drywall tends to expand and contract when temperatures and humidity levels change, and this repeated movement can lead to cracks in your walls, particularly around door frames. If you have multiple diagonal cracks, you may want to have your foundation inspected, as cracks can also be a sign of a bigger issue.
