"Bob had two weeks of availability between jobs to assist me with a walk-out basement renovation I knew he could not finish in two weeks but was really impressed and happy with how much he was able to complete. He did a little bit of everything including framing, drywall and trim, a bathroom remodel, painted kitchen cabinets, hung shelving, laid flooring, installed lighting, hung doors, and more! I had a couple contractors come in to finish the few remaining items and both of them commented on the quality of the work Bob did. He has an excellent work ethic and communicated well. Without question, I will hire Bob again."

"Jim Wilson called me and we made arrangements to have work done. He has been very helpful and has kept in contact with me. I am in California while the work is being done in Colorado. I will be able to see work done in the first part of September. But he has sent me video of what has been done so far."

"Keith is the consummate professional! He completed three bathroom remodels in our home including the master suite. His expertise is amazing, his work is amazing and his knowledge of construction/plumbing/painting/woodworking/drywall/tiling and the list could go on.. is impressive! He knows how to do it all! We have remodeled several homes over the years and are familiar with the process and I must say his expertise is limitless. I would highly recommend Keith for any home remodel project!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

Eco-friendly options reduce environmental impact and often improve indoor air quality.

The best tool for skim coating drywall is a skim coating blade, which can smooth out joint compound in wide stretches. While you could use a smaller drywall knife for skim coating, the smaller size means it’ll take longer to smooth out each section. Instead, consider investing in a skim coating blade for the quickest application.

Pros ensure smooth finishes and lasting repairs, avoiding visible patches.

To properly clean and maintain your skip trowel drywall texture, dust the surface weekly with an electrostatic duster or vacuum with a soft brush attachment. Never scrub the surface. You can remove stains by gently applying a mild detergent solution with a paint roller, removing it with a damp roller, and drying with a dry roller. To cut down on cleaning frequency, avoid indoor smoking and limit the use of fireplaces.
