"Mr. Zavala and his crew repaired the drywall in my mother-in law's house. The drywall was damaged in several places by a plumber searching for a leak. Their work was so good I hired them to do additional work."

"Philip with Peachtree Fix sent out Harold to our home for some drywall repair and paint touch ups. He was amazing on all levels! He was kind and respectful of our home. He left it the way he found it. He was careful to protect us from breathing in drywall from the sanding. And his finishing paint blending and touch ups are seamless and look great. Price is reasonable, as well. Overall, thumbs up and highly recommend! Thank you Peachtree Fix!"

"This has been the best service Iâ ve experienced. Leo provides great customer service and is very thorough. Letâ s not forget the best pricing in town along with quality work. I canâ t ask for anything more. He repaired my back door jams and baseboard along my stairwell. He will be coming back to paint the whole interior of my 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath house in the next week or so. Just his professionalism and knowledge alone during his visit when he came to give an estimate had me sold. I HIGHLY recommend his services to anyone and everyone. He will painting my sister's home as well. I guarantee you will NOT be disappointed."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Depending on the place where the cutting error occurred, you may be able to fix it. Learning how to patch a hole in drywall is challenging, but if you can tape and mud drywall, you can do it. Having said that, patching is time consuming. Early in the installation process, you may find that it’s easier and far less time consuming to just start over with a new sheet of drywall, cutting a new hole in the right spot. You may be able to use part of the incorrectly cut piece elsewhere, so it’s not completely wasted.

Yes, you can put paneling over textured walls. Of course, this will come down to personal preference and the type of paneling you want to install. From board-and-batten to shiplap and wainscoting, there are plenty of options to choose from.

The best tool for skim coating drywall is a skim coating blade, which can smooth out joint compound in wide stretches. While you could use a smaller drywall knife for skim coating, the smaller size means it’ll take longer to smooth out each section. Instead, consider investing in a skim coating blade for the quickest application.

Whether to repair or replace water-damaged plaster depends on the scale of the damage. For small, limited areas, you can often perform a repair yourself. If you choose to paint over small patches, ensure the surface is completely dry and apply a coat of antifungal primer first to prevent mold growth. However, simply painting or plastering over the damage is only a temporary solution that doesn't address the core problem. For more extensive or long-term damage, the plaster may be compromised, and there is a risk of mold. In these cases, it is recommended to remove the damaged section of plasterboard and replace it. You may consider hiring a professional for the repair, and it's worth noting that water damage is often covered by home insurance.
