"So Awesome and Highly Recommend! I recently moved into this charming house with 18 windows, which desperately needed Cleaning! storms, glass windows, and screens! It was a mix ... as some windows were accessible, and some needed a lot of attention and expertise to get access for Cleaning, or to even open up! I am so thrilled and excited to have this job done and complete, so that I can start making this house my home! everything from the initial consultation, easy communication and reach ability, extremely nice and caring , to the totally finished project was worry free and STELLAR experience . I am so grateful that I found MAE WOODS PROPERTIES !!! and I will definitely use them again for future projects!"

"We had a tree come through our bedroom after a major storm in our area. It had taken us a long time to get our roof repaired, and our GM at the time was having trouble finding drywall contractors for the interior, as many other houses in the area were affected. Having to take matters into my hands, I ended up calling three contractors in the area. Brian from ABE answered right away and came over to inspect that afternoon. I found him easy to talk to, and he answered all of my questions. We were scheduled to begin work within two weeks, with work starting this past week. He has shown up on time every day and has basically met all of the timelines he has set for himself. He has been agreeable to providing all of the necessary documentation for insurance purposes. I'm no expert, I don't have major storm damage to fix every day, but I ran the pricing by both my insurance adjuster and general contractor, and they both agree that it was a reasonable price. They also agreed to do the painting, which we have had rooms painted before, and again, I would say the price was very reasonable. The work that has been performed so far looks great. They've installed the drywall and put on the mud layer. There is still texturing and painting yet to go. Will report back once work is complete, but so far have been pleased by the responsiveness, punctuality, and work quality from ABE."

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

The time it takes for thinset to dry is determined by your room’s ambient temperature and humidity levels. Assuming the average humidity level is around 40% with an average temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit, thinset can dry within 48 hours. Lower temperatures and higher humidity can extend the curing process beyond 72 hours, while high heat and zero humidity can shorten the curing process. However, thinset can crack if it dries too fast.

It doesn’t matter which way you lay drywall, and you can choose to install it horizontally or vertically depending on the size of the wall and how tall the ceiling is. It’s easier to lay drywall sheets vertically if you have a taller ceiling, but laying sheets horizontally makes it easier to apply joint compound.

Yes, taping inside corners is a critical step in the drywall installation process.  Properly taping inside corners is essential for achieving a professional look, and an installation that resists cracking and maintains its integrity over time. Taping the corners involves the application of a joint compound along the seam where two drywall pieces meet. This process provides reinforcement, conceals the seam, and prevents future gaps or cracks from developing.

There are some instances when you can use extra drywall in your garden. Ideally, unused scraps of new drywall are best for amending soil without the concern of additional chemicals or mold. However, drywall with paint, mold, or potential asbestos requires specialized disposal by a professional and should be kept out of your garden.

Fixing ceiling nail pops involves similar steps to wall repair, with the major difference being the orientation of the work. Ceiling nail pops can be more challenging because you may need to work overhead, which can be physically demanding and require additional safety precautions. Additionally, the ceiling may have different materials or finishes, such as textured surfaces, which can affect the repair process. Otherwise, the fundamental steps are the same.
