"I hired Curtis's Handyman Service to repair ceiling drywall for my mom. He was very polite and professional explaining the process and was able to repair the ceiling drywall quickly and proficiently. We look forward to hiring him again for more handyman services."

"Amazing work on our kitchen backsplash! We have been working with PC & J for over a year on different projects in our home. They are of course highly skilled at drywall and ceiling work and they textured our walls and removed popcorn ceilings a few months ago. This latest job in our kitchen included installing a stack bond tile backsplash, which of course is an unforgiving tile pattern because you can see all the rows and columns aligned. Martin and Claudia took the time to keep everything straight even though our floors, countertops and walls were imperfect. They also installed floating shelves and the hood over the oven. Including support backing before they installed the tile. They are reliable, good hard workers and always produce amazing results. We hope to work with them again."

"Ched was very professional to work with. My shower pan was leaking and he did the repair and re-tiled the shower. He is attentive to the details and is very knowledgeable about all types of home repairs. Also, I appreciated that he kept the reno area as tidy as possible. I would definitely hire him again!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

Drywall can get wet and dry out without sustaining permanent damage, but only if the water damage is minor. If you have a small leak and are quick to correct the issue and set up blower fans and dehumidifiers, your drywall should dry out. If the leak is persistent, the drywall becomes totally waterlogged, or mold begins forming on the drywall, you should remove and replace it.

Depending on how much adhesive was used as well as the strength of the adhesive, you may have some drywall damage when removing a mirror. You can typically repair most drywall damage if it’s small by sanding the damaged area, applying spackle to smooth the damaged section so it’s flush with the rest of the wall, and repainting the area.

Plaster itself has a higher R-value than drywall. However, there are other considerations surrounding plaster and insulation. As a general rule, it's easier to obtain consistency in insulating value and quality when working with drywall rather than plaster. Plaster walls often don't contain any insulation behind the wall covering by design, and careful evaluation is necessary when choosing to add it.

Choose a drill bit that is the size of the screws of the anchors you will use. You aren’t drilling through metal or concrete—hopefully—so any standard twist, wooden or all-purpose drill bit will work fine. It’s also important to have a screwdriver capable of drilling through the drywall and into the stud. The good news is most available drills, even the older ones, can do this with no issue.
