Q: What corner bead to use for drywall?

• <div><p>Which style of corner bead you choose&mdash;whether metal or paper-faced&mdash;depends on your preference and if you&rsquo;re comfortable using metal-cutting tools and a hammer. Metal bead offers superior strength and durability but its installation is slightly more involved. We&rsquo;d say for most cases, it&rsquo;s better to use metal bead but if you&rsquo;re not comfortable working with metal, paper-faced bead will work just fine. </p></div>

Q: Can I install drywall myself?

• <div><p>Yes, it is possible to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/drywall-installation.htm">DIY install drywall</a>, but it is a deceptively complicated process that can be quite frustrating if you don&rsquo;t have experience. Prepare to cut and screw drywall, leave the proper gap distance for any seams, never leave the end of a piece of drywall hanging off of a stud, and cut out around electrical boxes and switches. Plus, getting the drywall to look good is challenging, especially when taping and spackling. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s usually a better idea to hire a professional drywall installer to ensure high-quality results.</p></div>

Q: Can I add a pocket door to an existing wall?

• <div><p>Yes, you can usually add a pocket door to an existing wall if it&rsquo;s not load-bearing. If you don&rsquo;t know, check with a professional. Installing a pocket door on a non-load-bearing interior wall is easiest, with no hidden electrical, plumbing, or ductwork. If you don&rsquo;t know how to check this, hiring a pro to check for you or completing the project is best.</p></div>

Q: Does drywall need to be replaced after water damage?

• <div><p>Water-damaged drywall should almost always be replaced. Not only does it look bad, it&rsquo;s a breeding ground for toxic mold. Even if you think the area is dry and there&rsquo;s no active leak, the only way to be sure is to cut out the damaged area and see for yourself.</p></div>

Q: Does it matter which side of drywall you use?

• <div><p>Yes, it matters which side of drywall you use. One side is smooth, and the other is rough. The smooth side should be facing outward, toward the room, while the rough side should be hidden and facing the studs and framing of the house. The smooth side will be easier to apply tape, joint compound, and, later, paint to.</p></div>

We hired him to have our basement finished. At first, he was very responsive. They came out to my house 3 days in a row and worked for a few hours. The first thing I noticed was that they had taken the screen out of the egress window and had forgotten to replace it, and they left the window wide...

When the estimate was given, there was NO mention that I would have to hire someone else for the small drywall repair. This was a total surprise to me, an inconvenience, and it doubled the cost of the project. On top of that, the electricians did not use drop cloths to cover the work area. This...

They seem to do good work, but they were HORRIBLE at communication. We waited for more than a month for them to start our job, all the while being assured every Friday afternoon that come Monday morning, they would be there and "camp out" until the job was done. Never happened. They were start...

Fantastic. The water pipe had burst due to the below zero temps. After we had a company come out and fix the pipe, Randy came out and immediately started to fix the damage from water stains and drywall damage. The time taken to fix the area was about 12 hours due to letting the mud, sealant,...

"AJC Home Services was here this morning about 8:30 to cut down 12 very tall Evergreen trees. I watched them do this and it was very interesting to see the whole process. The 2 gentlemen were professional, hard working and thorough. They had them all cut down along with the clean-up in under 90 minutes. The stump grinding crew are on their way, as I write this to complete the job."
