"Naayeri placed synthetic stucco on the exterior walls of my residence and garage. As a first step, they had to remove old vinyl siding and rehabilitate the uneven walls beneath. They prosecuted the work diligently when weather allowed and listened to my concerns. . They took care to care to avoid damage to other parts of the residence and cleaned up acceptably at completion. It was a challenging job, because the residence was old and complicated. The end result looked impressive and my neighbors agree."

"Simply "Wow!" What would have taken me a month or more, he completed in two days. He painted my two-story home in two days, including the trim - all by hand. Very fast with obvious attention to detail. His no-B.S. quote was reasonable. His advice on paint brands and types was invaluable. All-around a great experience."

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.

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.

How you hang the drywall can affect the finishing process. It's often easier to finish horizontal drywall panels, as the seams run across the wall rather than up and down. Standard drywall panels are 48 inches wide, so the seam is easy to reach without bending down or stretching your arms.

There are several things you should not do when installing drywall. Common mistakes include: adding too many screws, over-sanding, not adding backing support, and installing drywall unevenly. You also should avoid screwing into the same place twice, installing Sheetrock with tapered edges on the outside, and making too many joints.

A jigsaw is commonly used to cut holes in drywall. It offers versatility and precision, making it suitable for creating circular or irregular openings. When equipped with the right blade, a jigsaw can swiftly and cleanly cut through drywall, making it a good choice for DIY projects.
