Customers say: Quick response

"We needed a ceiling plaster repair done quickly so that we could list our house for sale. All the other companies we called were at least a month out from even giving us an estimate. Mr. Guerrero came the day after we called, gave us an estimate and fixed our plaster within five days, even returning several days later to ensure that everything still looked good. Could not be more pleased with his service!"

"Exploring for home maintenance work, I tapped into Angis List and contacted two suggested service companies. Oreo was prompt to contact me for details on the job. He pursued an onsite visit and noted all concerns followed by a same day bid by email. I received followup calls over a period of 3 months, finally determining to complete the projects in October 2024. Once the decision was confirmed, the project specialist reviewed the list of work on site the same day the contract was signed. My home was scrapped and painted, shutters removed and repainted, along with repairs to the eves, replacement of porch light frames and restoration of a desperately deilapidated fence. Communication and integrity are earmarks of this service agency. Both the contractor and the worker completing the project, were consistent in keeping me informed of the project and pursuing my approvals as the work progressed. The work quality was exceptional. I would recommend Oreo Maintenance without hesitation, Great Job Guys, reminiscent of the past 2 generations of pride taken in the craft and the job. Always put your name on your work. Thanks!"

"

Wonderful job on both the painting for the development, and the staining of my deck. Probably the best quality painting that we have ever had in our development. From the beginning, the work, work order, estimate process, etc. was handled in a top knotch way. I have had a number of contacts with the company's owner, Colby, and he has shown himself to operate a well run company.He is very businesslike, returns calls promptly, and has people there when he promises.  I also had dealt quite a bit with Josh, who directly supervised the overall process. Josh is very cooperative, understanding, and very helpful. He always came through on his committments, and it made for a very pleasant experience.


The painting crew, led by Arturo, was by far the best group of painters we have used. I got many comments from other homewoners in the development who were very impressed with their work. They are meticulous in what they do, and the final product shows it.

Drywall questions, answered by experts

If you only have tiny holes in your drywall (for example, dents or nail marks), you probably won’t need a patch kit. Instead, you can plug the hole with a small amount of spackle. Once the spackle dries, you can sand the area and paint over it—just like you would in the steps outlined above.

While a normal moisture level for drywall is between 5% and 12%, replacement is recommended if you get consistent readings above 17%. At this level, the drywall is likely too compromised by extensive moisture damage to be considered safe. You can replace either the entire sheet or just the affected section. If you are unsure after a visual inspection, it is best to have a contractor or water restoration provider use a professional moisture meter to get an accurate reading.

You can put drywall mud over paint to even out the surface or entirely resurface it. Sand the surface with 280-grit sandpaper, vacuum the debris and dust with a shop vac, and clean it with a slightly damp cloth. Allow the surface to dry. Apply drywall primer, especially if you’re skim-coating an entire wall. Apply the right type of drywall mud over the surface and smooth it with a trowel. Allow the layer to cure fully, then sand it before applying another layer or painting it.

You’ll get better results if you soundproof the whole wall. A hole through which light can pass can also let sound waves in. Acoustical or silicone sealant applied to holes and cracks can block enough sound to make a difference. However, the more layers absorb vibrations and slow or stop sound waves, the less noise you’ll have. 

You can technically just paint over hairline cracks in plaster since these cracks are often harmless, but this will mostly be a waste of paint. Paint will only hide the hairline crack for a few months before it shows up again. The best solution is to repair the crack with flexible filler or joint compound before repainting.
