"John is amazing! I've lived in my mobile home for 10 years and the siding was caked with mold. I decided I needed a power wash service immediately and began my search. I came across the Home Advisor/Angi page and as soon as I requested a quote John called me immediately. He called me even as I was leaving him a message that's how fast and responsive he is! He gave me a quote, showed up bright and early, gave me the details to what he intended to do, and within an hour and a half or so he got my mobile home looking like a brand new one! I was so impressed with his work and he is a VERY NICE man! I would most definitely hire him again and recommend him to anyone who wants a power wash service!"

"Hired for a concrete patch job outside of a leaking basement window. Payton was very friendly and willing to listen to my specific request. A few weeks and heavy rains later, no leak! Reasonable price and even sealed a hole in my downspout for free (not pictured). Thank you!"

"Shawn was great. He fixed our vintage door bell. It was a tubular doorbell that chimes with pipes. It was an old original from the 70â s and no parts were available. Shawn worked his magic and itâ s working great. Love my doorbell. Thanks to Shawn. Highly recommend him."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Small patches can be DIY, but professionals handle large-scale repairs with seamless results.

Some textures are easier than others to DIY, but the short answer is yes, you can absolutely texture walls yourself. You’ll need certain materials, like a trowel or paint sprayer, but the most important things you’ll need are patience and time. DIYing wall texture can save money and be a fun, messy project, but homeowners need to know that adding texture to a wall isn’t a quick project. 

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.

Depending on how much adhesive was used as well as the strength of the adhesive, you may have some drywall damage when removing a mirror. You can typically repair most drywall damage if it’s small by sanding the damaged area, applying spackle to smooth the damaged section so it’s flush with the rest of the wall, and repainting the area.

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.
