"I had multiple small drywall repairs from door handles, kids being rough on the walls, and a few nails that were poking out from the drywall making holes. The texture on the walls and ceiling match almost perfectly and without knowing a repair was done I really don't think anyone would notice. When fixing up the drywall I had mentioned wanting to add a few small shelves added in the living room. Dylan said he also took on some wood working projects and would be happy to make and install a set of shelves for me in the living room. They look even better than I thought they would. They are beautiful, unique, and exactly what we had talked about. He is very personable, answered my questions quickly and respectfully, and made me feel comfortable each step of the way. Would recommend"

"A big storm in March caused what seemed to be a pretty big leak in my roof. Kole was able to show up the very next day, locate the issue quickly and fix the problem . He then checked the rest of my roof without being asked and performed some preventative maintenance to avoid similar issues in the future. It is now June and we have experienced no additional leaking."

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

Vinegar and bleach are effective options for removing mold from drywall. Vinegar is a better choice if you have a smaller mold issue while bleach is best if you have a larger mold problem. If the area you're cleaning has limited ventilation, using vinegar would be a better option. In that case, you could mix vinegar with baking soda to remove more stubborn mold growth.

Venetian plaster is a highly durable wall finish that becomes a rock-like substance once dried, making it last longer than most other wall finishes. Its lifespan can range from decades to centuries, potentially lasting a lifetime. Key factors influencing its longevity include the quality of the initial application, whether it's properly sealed against moisture, and how the wall is maintained and treated (e.g., how often it is touched or bumped). Due to its mineral content, it can also develop a patina over time.

Yes, if there is mold in your drywall mud and you then use it to build walls in your house—or if mold develops in your set drywall, like it can in hot and humid areas—it can lead to illness. Mold in your drywall (or other parts of your home) can make existing respiratory conditions or allergies worse, and the effect can be more intense for those who have existing health issues or compromised immune systems.

Walls should be as smooth as possible before applying peel-and-stick wallpaper. Although you technically can apply wallpaper on textured walls, the peel-and-stick variety won’t last long without a clean, smooth surface for the adhesive to stick to. If you have textured walls, consult a pro about removing the textured finish before moving forward with wallpaper.
