Q: What are the most common drywall issues seen by professionals?

• <div><p>Cracks, water damage, and holes from fixtures or impact.</p></div>

Q: Do you put mesh on before or after drywall mud?

• <div><p>Whether you apply the drywall mesh before or after drywall mud depends on the type of patch it is. For self-adhesive patches, you&rsquo;ll put the patch down first and then coat it with mud. Mesh patches that are not self-adhesive will require you to put mud down first and then press the mesh into it, followed by additional coats of mud.</p></div>

Q: How do you hide drywall edges?

• <div><p>To hide drywall edges, you need to properly apply drywall tape and multiple layers of joint compound. These materials hide the seams between drywall sheets and fill the holes from drywall screws, leaving behind a smooth, flat finish to paint over. Apply joint compound smoothly, and finish the job by sanding the walls to make sure you fully hide drywall edges and other imperfections.</p></div>

Q: Do you have to replace drywall after water damage?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Does installing new drywall increase home value?

• <div><p>In many cases, installing new drywall will boost your home value. Replacing old, damaged, cracked, or wavy drywall is a great way to improve the look and feel of your home, as new drywall installed by a professional shouldn&rsquo;t have any imperfections. Additionally, removing old drywall means you&rsquo;ll have open walls, so you can install new insulation and address exposed issues with plumbing and electrical systems running behind the walls. All of these fixes will also add to your home&rsquo;s value.</p></div>

Tom arrived to do an estimate when he said he would and he was polite and professional. He made it clear that he might not get to my job for weeks because of a backlog of work. I was fine with that. He didn't give me a specific date when the tree would be cut down. In fact, he just showed up one...
