"Affordable painting services were very professional and easy to deal with. Came for an estimate within 3 days and was able to complete the job within a week. Price was fair and within the estimate. "
"Assembled and installed an electric fireplace and a hanging lamp for my Grandma. Took the time to help her understand how to use the fireplace and clean up the packaging mess. Sheâ s very happy."
Contacted and he returned call the same day.. He was busy, but when he got time to call he did.. He said he would come over the following day and look at the job and if I wished he would give me a quote... Which he did, and I chose to take his bid... He said he was extremely busy, but could be able to start the project within the week... He phoned me a few days later and asked if he could start the following day... Of coarse I chose to take the start day, since I needed ceiling done before wife could start to paint and have carpet installed... He came over as described, started in and got everything set on Saturday and asked if it would be alright to come back on Monday to finish the job... Ok by me and he had to do a lot of leveling, since I had had water damage when I had purchased the home... I have had quite a few homes, not just my living home, but have had rental property also, and have had many plasterers... He is fantastic... The only other plasterer I have ever had I no longer can find... I think he must have moved out of our area, so got Dennis's name from Angie's List and thought I'd try him... He has now done my basement bathroom, a soffit area in the kitchen and now the living room... You should know I had never met or heard about him until I got on Angie's List in January or February... First time he came here he did the bathroom and the soffit area and I was so pleased with that -- I called again to get his availability... He has a great personality, will answer any questions, and very professional... Work done speaks for itself...
If you need a plasterer and want a great job -- don't be afraid to call him.. He does top notch work and I'm sure, as I too, am very fussy what I pay and get from others... You will be pleased with your outcome...
Should you wish to see his work before calling him.. Call me at 815-218-0214 and I'd be more than happy to show you some of his work... You will agree...
"Two people showed up and got straight to work removing a drop ceiling, drywall and ceiling as well as framing. When the third showed up the job shifted into high gear with minimal slow downs or distraction. They cleaned up incredibly well including covering my stairs and then vacuuming them, vacuuming the entire space two to three times and leaving us very little to clean."
"Originally hired the brothers for a small job for a couple bedrooms was so please that I hired them for another job! Worked quickly, efficiently and the end result was above expectation for a reasonable price . Would def recommend and hire again!"
"Called Crown Plastering to hang blue-board and apply Kalcote. This is an office remodel of a doctor to create a new outpatient therapy clinic. Total area of the building is approximately 2500 square feet. He subs out the hanging, but does the plaster work. We used a textured finish and am very happy with the job Billy has done. We have a combination of exposed roof deck and drop ceilings. In some areas where the partition walls do not go to the ceiling, he had to put metal corner bead on the top of the wall and the finish is straight, level and crisp. We did have a hiccup in the estimate (before the hanging of drywall) because of miscommunication, but I do feel that the cost of the job was where we expected it to be. If I have a job larger than a basic repair I will call Billy again."
Most handy homeowners can tackle removing texture from unpainted walls. Removing texture from painted walls is a bit trickier. Paint acts as a sealant, so you can’t soften the texture with water. Instead, you’ll have to add a layer of drywall compound known as a skim coat. This process is messy and takes some practice.
The cost of application ranges from $1 to $3 per square foot, depending on the presence of asbestos and the difficulty of removal.
Although texturing walls may not seem like a lengthy project, you’ll need to set aside between one and five days to complete it properly. The exact amount will depend on the scope of your project—one room will take less than a whole-house project. That will give you enough time for tasks that are time-consuming in and of themselves, like taping wall edges, priming the walls and letting them dry fully, and actually applying the texture and top or base paint coats.
Textured walls can increase the value of your homeif the style is modern and seen as a desirable feature and not something a prospective buyer would need to remedy. A good example of this is popcorn texture versus Venetian plaster. The plaster wall would add value to your home, whereas the popcorn texture may be something a new buyer would want to remove.
The cost to repair a ceiling after a water leak can vary, with averages ranging from $419 to $1,359, or $45 to $55 per square foot. Smaller patches may cost around $150. The final price depends on the size of the affected area and the extent of the damage. Remember that you will also need to repair the source of the leak, such as roof damage or a plumbing issue, which can cost an additional $200 to $1,550. Depending on the situation, you might also face costs for repainting or repairing floors. For an accurate estimate, it is best to get a quote from a professional.
