"Bob was very communicative from the start and on time. He’s a man of his word and more than a fair price for top notch work. He did our drywall installation within a few days and takes pride in his work. He does the project himself from start to finish so rest assured you know the quality you’re getting. Definitely will reach out again in the future for our next drywall project. Thanks Bob!!"

"We hired James to drywall our dining room and guest bedroom. He is a one man show and guarantees great work! He made sure to ask what our finishing would be (smooth with crown molding) and answered all of the questions we had. Every day he left the project site clean and made sure to protect the rest of our home from dust. We are extremely happy with the results! Looking forward to having him work on more projects as our home renovations continue."

"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."

"John was courteous and prompt. He was responsive to my needs and went out of his way to ensure that my bathroom was taken care of in a timely manner. I would highly recommend John for any repair work as John repaired not only my drywall but floor tiles that had to be repaired. His pricing is extremely fair as compared to other firms."

"The team of 3 showed up each morning promptly at 7:30 AM. They begun by throughly laying plastic everywhere to catch all of the dust, dirt, and drywall compound. By 3:30 PM they would remove all of the plastic and clean up. Some of the work they did was:

* Repaired under the stairs where carpet once was
* cracks in the wall from the house settling
* holes where a hand rail once was
* holes from old cable lines
* many old patches
* popped nail heads
* hung drywall 20 ft high
* retextured entire rooms - 9 walls total

We were very pleased at the work done. It surpassed our expectations. We still have some more worked needed in the future and will certain reach out to Jim and his team again."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.

Regular dusting, occasional repainting, and avoiding harsh scrubbing preserve the finish.

If the holes in the plaster are small, you can fill them with layers of patching plaster until they’re filled. After it dries, you can sand the plaster and paint over it. If the hole is much larger, consider using bonding plaster first and then a layer of patching plaster, completing the process with sanding and a layer of paint.
