"They did much more than paint and stain the house. It began with small projects inside the house, from electrical to plumbing to grouting/sealing to wall repair. We could not have been more pleased with Drew and his team. They not only did good work, they are knowledgeable, thorough, pleasant and even clean up after themselves. Additionally, we always knew when they were arriving and were kept abreast of any schedule changes. All projects were carefully monitored in progress. After having such a good experience with the interior work, we asked for a quote on painting the house exterior, the railings, and staining of the wood trim. They did all this and are overseeing a few more outdoor projects for us. All in all, in our opinion, you cannot go wrong by hiring Key Lime Properties."

"We had leaks due to cracks in the exterior wall plaster at the second story level. Extensive work was required for the repair. Marcio was very clear in sharing the diagnosis and path to repair. Photos of what was found were shared and used to explain the necessary repair process. Transparency throughout the completion of the job. Very satisfied with result. Strongly recommend Pro Service Remodelation."

"Josue was at least 10 minutes early and was waiting outside our gate, but did not bother us prior to our appointment time. He was extremely courteous and professional. He performed quality work and cleaned up the entire job site. I was very pleased with all aspects of the job and asked him for estimates to perform additional drywall work in another area of our home and to paint the interior and exterior of our home."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

It is possible to apply plaster on the interior or exterior of your home, but we don’t recommend it. Plaster is easy to apply in theory, but in reality, it can be a challenging material to work with, and it’s difficult to get the finished product to look clean, even, and smooth. Many DIYers end up calling in a professional afterward to touch up the area or even redo it entirely because of mistakes they made in the process. Hiring a plaster pro will cost more, but it’s usually the best option to achieve high-quality results.

Whether you need a drywall anchor depends on the specifics of your project, particularly what you're hanging and where. You do not need a drywall anchor if you can screw or nail the object directly into a wooden stud, as the wood provides sufficient support and stability. However, if there are no studs in the location where you plan to hang the item, you should use drywall anchors to ensure it is securely supported. For very lightweight objects, like small pictures, adhesive picture hanging strips can be a suitable alternative to anchors.

Yes, taping inside corners is a critical step in the drywall installation process.  Properly taping inside corners is essential for achieving a professional look, and an installation that resists cracking and maintains its integrity over time. Taping the corners involves the application of a joint compound along the seam where two drywall pieces meet. This process provides reinforcement, conceals the seam, and prevents future gaps or cracks from developing.

Drywall can be toxic to the environment and to humans in some cases. As drywall breaks down in a landfill and comes in contact with other organic chemicals, it can create hydrogen sulfide gas or leach into the groundwater. Additionally, the CDC recommends methods for controlling the inhalation of drywall dust when handled. While the common ingredients of drywall—gypsum, silica, and mica—are naturally occurring, they can cause irritation in some humans.

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.
