"I had never used Angi's List before, so I didn't quite know what to expect. Within one minute of submitting my request, I received a call back from Yansel. We were looking to remove old drywall in a garage kitchenette and replace it, repair the tile floor, and re-open a door that had been covered with double drywall. He offered to come to our house and quote the project that same day. He arrived within 30 minutes, and after a quick tour, he gave us a verbal estimate. We received a written estimate that evening as promised and hired him. He showed up the next day and obviously had a clear plan of exactly what he needed to do. Within minutes, he was well within the project and didn't stop working until a full day was done. The following day, he arrived on time as promised and completed the job WAY ABOVE OUR EXPECTATIONS and a day early! Yansel is a true professional. He is a good listener, straightforward and honest, and a very hard worker. We will be hiring him for all of our remodel projects in the future. If you are looking for a reliable pro to make sure your project is completed correctly, Yansel is your man."
"I hired GMC Remodeling Miami because I had a really bad patch job from a towel bar that got ripped out of my bathroom wall, plus another small hole that I needed to be fixed. Martin was amazingâ he called me right after I sent in my request on Angi and set up my appointment for just a few hours later. I texted him photos of the damage and he gave me a very fair quote. He was very respectful, personable, and easy to communicate with both before and during the project. He brought all the needed tools and materials, making my life very easy. The job was done quickly and he was very thoroughâ he went the extra mile to help repaint the damaged area and make it look as seamless as possible. It looks great and the damage I did to the walls is no longer noticeable. I would definitely hire him again!"
"Santiago and his team were amazing. I noticed the drywall on my ceiling was beginning to cave in due to water damage. I called Instacure and that day Santiago gave me a very honest assessment of what needed fixing. The next day him and his team not only completely redid the dry wall of my room but he treated all the black mold that was starting to form. They work both fast and diligently. Very very nice people too! Cannot reccomend highly enough!"
"Diego gave a fair price and we hired him popcorn ceiling removal, drywall repair, and painting. The team did a great job, took a little longer than expected to complete the work, but will definitely hire again in the future. Customer service is excellent!"
"Javier installed new baseboards
He also repaired, sanded and painted existing baseboard. Did a great job.. Going to hire him again for additional work in our home"
"Marcio was our Christmas present. He checked off all the boxes in my letter to Santa: he actually showed up, then showed up when he said he would. He knew what he was doing, did it in a timely manner, and cleaned up after himself. I had removed two cabinets from my wall, making a mess out of the drywall. Marcio left it like new. I was able to paint and pull my room back together. My next project will be in the spring—remodeling a bathroom. Can’t wait! I know Marcio will do a great job."
A nail in drywall cannot hold very much—usually only a few pounds. A nail in a stud can add support and hold around 20 pounds. If you are trying to hang something heavier, get some help from drywall anchors—toggle bolts are very strong and able to withstand more weight.
Water-damaged drywall should almost always be replaced. Not only does it look bad, it’s a breeding ground for toxic mold. Even if you think the area is dry and there’s no active leak, the only way to be sure is to cut out the damaged area and see for yourself.
Drywall tape is made of paper, while drywall mesh is made of fiberglass or metal. Drywall mesh patches are suitable for repairing small holes in drywall, while paper drywall tape holds a crease better for corners. You need joint compound to adhere drywall tape to the wall, while mesh patches may be self-adhesive.
A 50-pound mirror can be hung on drywall, but only if it has the support of strong hardware. Ideally, you can find the studs behind the drywall and attach the mirror to them; this will give your mirror better stability. Otherwise, confirm that you are using anchors appropriate to the weight of the mirrors. Another technique is to use French cleats—two pieces of wood that fit together, with one piece attached to the wall and the other to the mirror. This allows the weight to be distributed over a wider area.
Wall anchors are suitable for drywall and plaster walls, which are common in most homes. However, different wall materials may require specialized anchors. For concrete or masonry walls, you'd typically use concrete anchors. When dealing with other wall types, such as brick or tile, specific anchors designed for those materials may be necessary. Always consult with a hardware specialist or check the manufacturer's recommendations to ensure you select the appropriate anchors for your specific wall type.
