"JK Construction LTD Jack and Amanda were very kind, courteous and professional. They primed the interior and exterior of our home and a put two coates of of paint on the inside and outside. Their work was very meticulous making sure that the furniture and rugs were protected with masking tape and plastic. On the outside everthing was masked and covered with plastic so the cement would not be damaged by any excess paint. Overall they were very hard working and diligent to due the very best job that they could. They would always ask for any input we had regarding color, defects to the walls and exterior caulking and repairs. I would highly recommend them to provide quality work efficiently and at a price that is competitive. Thank you!"

"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 questions, answered by experts

Drywall can be installed directly on ceiling joists. In fact, this method is common in many construction projects. Drywall sheets are attached to the joists using screws, ensuring a secure and stable installation. Before attaching the drywall, it's important to mark the joist locations on the ceiling, allowing for accurate screw placement. Proper spacing between screws and careful taping and mudding of joints are crucial to creating a smooth and flawless ceiling surface. If the joists are in good condition and level, installing drywall directly on them is a practical and efficient approach.

You can paint over drywall mud about 24 hours after application, but the exact timing depends on factors like humidity, temperature, and the thickness of the mud. For the best results, ensure the mud is completely dry to the touch and has changed from a darker gray to a lighter, chalky white. Don’t forget to sand and prime the drywall surface before you paint to create a smooth, even finish.

Deciding whether to repair or replace drywall can be tricky, but your top considerations should be the extent of the damage and what caused the damage. For instance, if you need to repair a small hole caused by a doorknob that hit the wall, you can safely patch it without a second thought. However, if you have significant drywall damage caused by water damage, it’s best to thoroughly remove the drywall to inspect and repair the pipes behind it before replacing it.

Plaster is a pretty tough surface, but it can still sustain damage from things like bumping against it, water issues, dampness, extreme humidity changes, and plain old age. Most plaster walls last hundreds of years and will only be taken down to the base layer when major repairs are required. Being cautious around the wall, not placing furniture against it, and ensuring stable humidity are all great ways to reduce possible damage.

You should leave a gap between drywall sheets because they naturally expand and contract along with the building framing as temperature and humidity change. Most pro drywall installers leave a gap of about ⅛ inch between drywall sheets, allowing the sheets to expand, contract, and shift without cracking or becoming damaged. If you don’t leave enough gaps between slabs, the edges will press against each other when they expand, and the pressure can cause visible cracks.
