My other half and I have both been working in construction / home repair for the better part of 10 plus years separately and both decided it was time to work for ourselves. We are capable of fixing and installing potentially all of your wildest dreams. We do anything from interior and exterior painting, repair or install drywall, replace flooring, refinish cabinets or any other furniture you have that needs some updating. We also offer full cleaning services if you’re sick of doing your own chores and want someone else to do them for you. We are the ultimate dynamic duo because we’re extremely efficient, honest, and just downright talented. You won’t be spending insane amounts of money on labor from multiple people who don’t know what they’re doing. You’re paying for the quality of your home, your family’s well being, and we plan on keeping it that way. If you can dream it, we can make it happen. And if we can’t, we’ll help you get in contact with someone who can. We both love what we do, and we can assure you that you’re gonna love it too.

"I hired them to remove the old vanity and install a new one. After they completed the job, I had to hire a plumber to fix it (same day). There was a P-trap installed backwards, a pipe was too long, and there was no gasket on one pipe. owner will not respond. Also, we had a deal that they could take the current knobs in the bathroom off the cabinets if they would replace them. They took the knobs, but did not replace. So essentially, they stole the knobs. The clean up after the job was poor, there was a lack of professionalism, and they did not show up when they said they were going to on multiple occasions. It took six days to get the vanity replaced. Beware."

"Very unresponsive to my request for a quote. Disappointed that I couldn't even get them to answer the phone or reply to an email. I only got them to respond to the messaging in my "Inbox" through the portal. And that was VERY slow responses. Unsatisfied, at best."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You should stagger drywall sheets to help prevent cracking. The joints between drywall sheets are the weak spots, so if you install drywall with seams aligned, you’ll create weak lines that run across the length of the wall and extend from floor to ceiling. But when you stagger drywall, the solid sections of panels will support the joints. This can prevent seams from cracking or separating due to fluctuating temperature and humidity, vibrations from movement inside the home, and gravity.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

You can drywall over plaster, but there are some things to consider. First, installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall’s thickness. This could create challenges for window and door frames that no longer fit the wall’s thickness. You may also have to adjust power outlets so they are accessible. When done right, drywall can create a smooth, flat appearance, but it’s best when handled by professionals.

Costs depend on material type, labor rates, and additional features like decorative finishes or reinforcement.

If you plan on heating your garage, you must install a vapor barrier when drywalling the garage. A vapor barrier protects your garage from frost and mold that can occur through condensation. If your garage is unheated, you don't need to install a vapor barrier. The only exception is if you regularly crank the heat in your car before getting in it. In this case, you may still want to install a vapor barrier, as your car can heat your garage.
