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!"

"I would highly recommend David Nesmith for any project. He installed drywall in our basement and did an impeccable job. He takes pride in what he does and it really shows in the quality of his work. He is always on time and cleans up at the end of the day. David is a genuine good person to work with. I will definitely be calling him again in the future."

"Extremely well. I live a distance from my rental property, and I felt comfortable working with Marc by phone sending me before and after photos of the work he did. I found Marc to be honest, caring, easy to work with, reliable, dependable, and reasonable in price. My tenants and I are very satisfied with his work, and would not hesitate to hire him again."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The best tool for skim coating drywall is a skim coating blade, which can smooth out joint compound in wide stretches. While you could use a smaller drywall knife for skim coating, the smaller size means it’ll take longer to smooth out each section. Instead, consider investing in a skim coating blade for the quickest application.

Yes, if there is mold in your drywall mud and you then use it to build walls in your house—or if mold develops in your set drywall, like it can in hot and humid areas—it can lead to illness. Mold in your drywall (or other parts of your home) can make existing respiratory conditions or allergies worse, and the effect can be more intense for those who have existing health issues or compromised immune systems.

Brick and stucco are a lot more different. You must use picture hanging clips designed for brick walls, or use a plaster rail system with adjustable hooks. Any other type of hanging hardware will cause damage to the bricks behind. You won’t be able to really use nails, either, because they’re not strong enough to go into the bricks.

Vinegar and bleach are effective options for removing mold from drywall. Vinegar is a better choice if you have a smaller mold issue while bleach is best if you have a larger mold problem. If the area you're cleaning has limited ventilation, using vinegar would be a better option. In that case, you could mix vinegar with baking soda to remove more stubborn mold growth.

Yes, a fan can help drywall mud dry faster by improving air circulation and reducing humidity in the room. Drywall mud dries through evaporation, so increasing airflow speeds up this process. However, you should position the fan to blow across the room rather than directly on the wet mud. This helps prevent drying too quickly, which can cause cracking. You should also use a dehumidifier if high humidity is an issue.
