"Hector Perez and his crew did an absolutely outstanding job, very professional. His estimate was a fair price. I would definitely hire him again. In fact, he will be coming back next month for a different job. One last thing: The clean up after the job was very thorough."

"David did a good job relocating and installing some doors. I would hire him again for this type of project. This was the first time I have hired someone for this type of work, and it would have been helpful for both of us to set clear expectations up front, including what time his day starts and ends, hence the 3-star rating. Overall, David is very accommodating and helped me move some heavy items. He also had some good suggestions on how to address some other needs and went out of his way to get samples."

"We had some drywall holes in the ceiling and also needed drywall hung and finished. My husband is very picky; he goes in with a light at night, looking to ensure work is to his level of perfection. It was an amazing job! Professional, dust-free, using plastic to tape off other areas of the house, floor covered to keep plaster off the onyx floor. The rate was reasonable. They are insured and did things promptly. Highly recommend."

"Jesse, Hunter, and Michael were absolutely amazing to work with. After a previous contractor hacked my new deck rebuilds, they came to save the day. Jesse was super helpful and understanding, especially in my chaotic and time sensitive state. They were prompt with work and responses. Hunter and Michael were amazing and knowledgeable workers. I will definitely be hiring again! Superheros!!!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

You should do a little bit of sanding between adding coats of mud. Knock down any ridges or significantly imperfect areas through sanding, which should help you apply the next coat of mud smoothly. If your first coat of mud is pretty smooth after it dries, a quick sanding is all you’ll need. Don’t forget to wipe away any dust after each sanding process.

Textured walls can increase the value of your home if the style is modern and seen as a desirable feature and not something a prospective buyer would need to remedy. A good example of this is popcorn texture versus Venetian plaster. The plaster wall would add value to your home, whereas the popcorn texture may be something a new buyer would want to remove.

You’ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish.

Costs range from $500 to $5,000, depending on damage size, labor, and finishing requirements.
