Hello, my name is Josh. Im 20 years old, I have a strong back, and just enough experience to help you accomplish what you might not be able to. Whether its because you are inexperienced/unable, too busy, lack the proper tools/equipment, or simply because you don't want to (trust me, im the last one to judge). I have professional experience in construction, minor landscaping, and instalation. This includes concrete flatwork, grading (gravel, soild, sand, ect), lawn/garden maintenance, minor carpentry, mounting/instalation. I can paint, clean, im not afraid to use a ladder or get on your roof. I have a pickup truck if you need to move furniture or other large objects, and the capability to load it for you. Bottom line is that what ever task you cant acomplish on your own, I can handle, no questions asked, no crazy 2 hour minimums or really any bs in general. If youve ever thought "I need a guy for this" Josh is your man

"I accidentally drove my car into the back wall of my garage! This messed up the gas, water, heating and electric components, as well as the brick exterior wall was bowed out! I had many contractors come out to bid the job. Fernando actually delivered his bid in person, so if we had any questions, he was right there. His bid was very realistic and reasonable. What made me choose him was his ability to give suggestions on different options. In our garage was washer/dryer, sink, shower, and toilet. This accident compromised the entire wall. Fernando had an idea of putting walls up and separating the washer/dryer from the bathroom. We liked this idea and the insurance was agreeable....so the construction was started. I walk with canes and all of them were very careful and made sure that I had a clear path to walk through the garage! They even carried my groceries in!! We were extremely happy with his work! Fernando has a great team of skilled workers that were very prompt, courteous, and helpful, which shows how Fernando runs his business!! I will contact him again with other projects in the future!!"

"Javier at TN Construction was amazing! As project manager (and worker) he was thorough, professional, knowledgeable, and a great guy to work with. He listened carefully to my questions and proposals for what we wanted done, then followed through precisely. He was quick to respond to texts. And, most shockingly of all in my experience with contractors, his crew was at our house, prepared, with everything they needed, exactly when he said they would be! They went the extra mile to please us and they certainly did! I feel confident that Javier and his crew would go that extra mile for all their clients."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.

If your premixed drywall mud is dried out or has begun to set in the bucket, you may be able to revive it by adding warm water and stirring. However, the first and most important step is to scrape off any hard, dried bits of drywall that may have accumulated toward the top of the container and throw them away because they will not easily reconstitute back into the drywall mud mix.

Regular inspections and cleaning to prevent moisture or pest issues.

Generally, your homeowner’s insurance might only cover ceiling collapses caused by problems under the coverage, such as a busted pipe. But if the ceiling collapse resulted from owner negligence, maintenance issues, or other reasons excluded by your policy, you could be on your own. Some policies might cover damages caused by the collapse but not the repair itself. Check with your policy carrier for the most accurate information regarding ceiling collapse coverage.

You’ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish.
