"We hired 2nd Street Painting for a garage ceiling repair project. The job included 1) removing and replacing damaged drywall, 2)installing screws to damaged seams, 3)taping, finishing and sanding drywall seams, and 4)priming and painting the repaired areas. BJ worked hard and efficiently to help hang the drywall on one of the days. Josh did the rest of the work and has my vote for being the hardest worker I know. He is efficient, highly-skilled, punctual, pleasant, and above all, kind."
"Shane and his crew did a great job finishing our basement bedroom project. Studs, insulation, drywall, drop ceiling, closet doors, and flooring making in a great guest retreat. Work was timely, cleaned up without a trace and quality of work was top drawer. This was repeat business in our new home. Highly recommended. He is very particular and it shows in fit and finish of his work. Thanks!"

Look for flaking paint or air bubbles that burst and then flake away. Paint will begin to flake after being exposed to minimal moisture or water, so it’s a good indicator of any water damage. If you notice your paint starting to flake, feel the plaster underneath to see if it is soft or damp.
Wall anchors are suitable for drywall and plaster walls, which are common in most homes. However, different wall materials may require specialized anchors. For concrete or masonry walls, you'd typically use concrete anchors. When dealing with other wall types, such as brick or tile, specific anchors designed for those materials may be necessary. Always consult with a hardware specialist or check the manufacturer's recommendations to ensure you select the appropriate anchors for your specific wall type.
Deciding whether to repair or replace drywall can be tricky, but your top considerations should be the extent of the damage and what caused the damage. For instance, if you need to repair a small hole caused by a doorknob that hit the wall, you can safely patch it without a second thought. However, if you have significant drywall damage caused by water damage, it’s best to thoroughly remove the drywall to inspect and repair the pipes behind it before replacing it.
Regular inspections, repainting, and avoiding moisture exposure help maintain integrity.
Only use spackle on plaster walls when the imperfection is small. It’s best used for nail holes or small dings in the plaster. Spackle dries quickly, allowing you to continue the repair process shortly after using it. Plaster can be tricky to repair, though, so if you run into issues, call a pro so that you don’t risk further damage.
