"Ken Showed and did a great job. However, I was disappointed because he could not even give me a verbal estimate for the job. When he was finished and billed me I was very surprised by the charge. I had 2other estimate so based on those he was on the very high side. The reason I did not go with the previous experts was because they were very busy and we could not wait two months. Ken showed up and did the job in a timely manner, was very very nice. I would Encourage at least a verbal estimate."

"We contacted 4 different contractors for quotes to remove popcorn ceilings, refinish and paint our ceilings. Bennett Bros had the best price and quality did not suffer because of it! They did a beautiful job and got it done quickly. They did a great job cleaning up after themselves which is not easy considering how messy of a job it is. One of our neighbors came by while they were working and was so impressed she is planning to use their services for popcorn removal in her home as well. Bennett Bros did not disappoint!"

"Max was on time, professional, and very dedicated to getting the job done. He went above and beyond to paint our four rooms and our hallway - ceilings, trim, and walls. He fixed all of the drywall imperfections, moved all of the furniture, covered all of the area that was being painted and did an excellent job! He finished in two and 1/2 days. It looks to us like we have a new house. He also did an excellent job powerwashing our metal roof and gutters! We will definitely hire him again!"

"Atlantic contractors did a great job in building my 14 x 24 three season room. From the beginning, Brent was very responsive to my questions and very easy to work with. He was very patient and flexible going through our community review process. The end product is a solidly built addition that I am very much enjoying. As a note, shortly after construction we had two significant rainfalls and there was no leaks in the windows, doors or roof. I would not hesitate to use them again."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Plaster can be a difficult DIY to master, especially if you plan to plaster an entire room, rather than patch a small area. Before you begin a plaster DIY project, you need to know which tools and type of plaster to use. It's also important to know how to prepare the surface and apply the plaster for a smooth finish. If that all sounds like a lot of work, you may prefer hiring a local plaster repair contractor to do the job.

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 easiest way to remove texture from walls is the soak-and-scrape method. You’ll need to spray a section of the wall with water and let the water soak in and soften the texture. Then, you need to scrape the texture off using a drywall taping knife. This method works best with unpainted walls since paint prevents water from saturating the textured joint compound.

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.

White walls are the toughest color to keep clean and maintain, as they’re extremely unforgiving when it comes to dirt, splatters, dust, and smudges. Still, many people look past their high-maintenance requirements because they lighten and modernize a space beautifully. If you’re opting for white walls, it’s especially important to keep up with regular cleanings, so they stay pristine.
