"Bill and his coworker did an outstanding job installing backsplash tile in our kitchen. They were able to accommodate our changing schedule . They arrived on time, did their work, and left the area clean. They followed through a few days later to make sure the job met to our satisfaction and to check for any areas that needed attention. I would definitely recommend them, and would use them in the future ."

"Due to a leak in the baseboard heater in my 250-year-old house, there was a moldy/mildewed section of my ceiling and wall. Haven removed the damaged ceiling, cleaned up the mold/mildew with a specialized chemical, replaced the ceiling, and painted the ceiling and wall. The room looks wonderful now and there is no residual smell. He also put sheetrock on a section of my stairwell well where I had to remove the wall surface to bring a washing machine to the second floor. This section is temporary, so he screwed it into the wall. Haven did a great job with everything and cleaned up the site perfectly when he was done. I found him to be efficient and hardworking, with a pleasant, positive attitude and excellent communication skills. I plan to hire Haven again in the future for the many projects we have in this old house."

"I have to commend these guys and the job they did with my roof. I had a partially collapsed roof from the snow and ice buildup on my roof. I needed the repair done urgently and withing budget. I got may quotes on the job with some outrageous bidding to be honest. Overstate gave me a fair price and told me exactly what needed to be done. Within a week the job was completed and my home is leakproof again."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Walls should be as smooth as possible before applying peel-and-stick wallpaper. Although you technically can apply wallpaper on textured walls, the peel-and-stick variety won’t last long without a clean, smooth surface for the adhesive to stick to. If you have textured walls, consult a pro about removing the textured finish before moving forward with wallpaper.

Depending on the place where the cutting error occurred, you may be able to fix it. Learning how to patch a hole in drywall is challenging, but if you can tape and mud drywall, you can do it. Having said that, patching is time consuming. Early in the installation process, you may find that it’s easier and far less time consuming to just start over with a new sheet of drywall, cutting a new hole in the right spot. You may be able to use part of the incorrectly cut piece elsewhere, so it’s not completely wasted.

You should stagger drywall sheets to help prevent cracking. The joints between drywall sheets are the weak spots, so if you install drywall with seams aligned, you’ll create weak lines that run across the length of the wall and extend from floor to ceiling. But when you stagger drywall, the solid sections of panels will support the joints. This can prevent seams from cracking or separating due to fluctuating temperature and humidity, vibrations from movement inside the home, and gravity.

Plaster is a beautiful finish but is labor-intensive to install and remove. It’s vulnerable to cracking and more sensitive to moisture variance than drywall. Installing plaster on a new wall is an expensive process that can take days to weeks, depending on the scope. Removing a plaster wall can also be quite expensive and time-consuming.

The cost to install drywall is between $1.50 and $3 per square foot, while shiplap installation costs between $2 and $7 on average. In most applications, shiplap installations cost more than that of putting in drywall. However, several ways exist to reduce shiplap prices, especially for small locations or accent walls, which can keep the total cost of shiplap competitive with that of drywall.
