"Juan repaired some damaged areas of EFIS type stucco on my home a few years ago. More recently we installed a few new windows and I contacted him again to refinish the stucco areas that were affected. He did excellent work in both cases and would recommend him to anyone needing this type of work. Tom"

"Our entire experience has been wonderful. Jim called us immediately and has been very professional, arranged to come over right away and review and quote our drywall repair project. Jim gave us a quote the very next morning which we felt was very fair so we approved his quote right away. The very next day - Patrick started the project. Patrick started our project by protecting all of our wood floors and putting up plastic sheets to protect all furniture - he has excellent skills in repairing drywall - we highly recommend Patrick. Eugene joined Patrick to also repair drywall and he as well has excellent skills in drywall repair - we highly recommend Eugene. Eugene also installed insulation on the wall behind our furnace and hot water heater to put up a sound barrier to any noise the equipment gives out. Timeframe from the moment I ask for drywall repair until the project was completely finished - Monday we requested help - Tuesday Jim reviewed project - Wednesday We received quote - Thursday work began - Saturday project completed! Everyone was friendly, professional, and careful."

"We hired 614 Drywall for a rather large drywall project as part of our whole house remodel. We had ~2500 sq ft of walls & ceilings skim-coated to remove the existing texture, some new drywall hung, some corner bead and J-bead installed, and a few patches performed. First of all, I must say that the customer service was fantastic. Emilio was very communicative, polite, respectful, and empathetic. Most importantly, he was quick to address the issues that cropped up and put me at ease. He very much wanted me to be completely satisfied with the work, and there was quite a bit of work to be done. I will also share that I can sometimes be a difficult person to please. Not once did Emilio or his crew act unprofessionally or complain. For these reasons, I give them 5 stars for customer service and for 5 stars for value. So although I am not giving 5 stars across the board, please understand that I'm a perfectionist and sometimes too critical! With respect to the work quality, I give 4 stars as there were a few minor issues worth noting. This rating is partly because it was up to me to find the issues in quality and point them out for repair, which is time consuming and kept me from working on other jobs. Ideally it would be the project manager that would do that rather than the customer. There were a few tape joints that needed to be redone multiple times as the cracks kept re-appearing. It wasn't until some reinforcement and hot mud were used that the cracks stopped. There were also some areas where the skim coat was not applied or not applied thick enough to cover the old texture completely. But thankfully not in a highly visible area. We requested a 'Level 5' finish on our walls and ceilings to go for a modern look, which turned out to be very hard and time consuming to achieve in a 1960's home with existing drywall and texture. While smooth, the surfaces are not technically of 'Level 5' quality if you inspect closely with a light. In reality, my expectations should've probably been adjusted by the project manager upfront now knowing after the fact that a 'Level 5' finish is hard/impossible to do in an old home with existing drywall. Regardless, in the end I am very happy with the result and would definitely look to hire this company again in the future. If you are on the fence, know that you won't regret hiring this company!"

"Daniel did an excellent job installing new drywall and 3 patches in our basement room. The prices was really reasonable: You couldn’t even tell that there were patches - the work was really top notch! I would absolutely hire him again."

"PatchMaster repaired the drywall in a 3x4' portion of the ceiling that had a water leak repaired. the estimation process was simple. Russel and I exchanged text and photos, and he came to the house to confirm his understanding of the scope of the work. I was on their schedule a week later, and the drywaller arrived a few minutes early. He installed furniture and carpet protection from the job site all the way to the door to ensure that he kept the hours clean. His demolition was fast and he let me inspect the are in the cavity before install the patch so I could quickly check for other plumbing issues. His patch work and texturing were also quick and tidy, and the match to the surrounding/untouched ceiling looks pretty good. Over all, I am very happy with PatchMaster and will use them again for drywall needs. Their price was fair as compared to several other quotes I received. I felt that Russel demonstrated the most comprehensive understanding of the work and what needed."

"I have a house from the 60s with a fan pattern. Everyone I talked to said they were too busy for this work or it was too hard to do. TCH had fast service and did a great job for 1/3 the price of a drywall business out of Denver."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.

The short answer is yes, a sagging plaster ceiling is dangerous. Sagging plaster on a wall is something you should fix immediately, but it isn’t a major concern. If the same type of sagging occurs on a ceiling, however, you could be in danger of your ceiling falling in large chunks. When plaster sags, it loses its strength and ability to hold itself up. The bonds that hold it together are strong, though, so if a sagging area falls, it will take large pieces down with it.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

Ceiling-mounted curtains won’t damage the ceiling if they’re installed properly. Using the right anchors or securing the brackets into joists will ensure the curtain weight is properly supported and prevent damage. However, overtightening screws, using weak anchors, or repeatedly removing and reinstalling hardware in the same spot can cause cracking or sagging over time. In that case, you might have to call a pro for ceiling repair.

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.
