"Josh used the wrong connector in both our showers. He replaced one of them and the leaking has stopped. However he refused to replace the one in our main bathroom. The leak was in the wall and we did not see it until it had warped our brand new laminate floor that we had installed. He cussed out my husband, told me there was nothing I could do about his NOT repairing his work and refused to even replace the leaking part. My husband had to seek help to get the leak stopped and now we will have to pay someone to come in and repair the damage he caused. He claimed it was a faulty part but the plumber said he used the wrong kind of connection for the copper pipes we had and that it would always leak. Now we are worried that the shower he supposedly fixed will also leak. We also hired him to do a job for us in Illinois which he was paid in advance for and refuses to complete. He wanted to bring his entire family to the job site and camp out. When we told him we had heavy equipment out there operating and he could not bring his kids, he refused to finish the job. He told me that he talked to his attorney and that there is nothing I can do about his shoddy work or his refusal to complete the jobs or his refusal to fix the damage he caused. He showed up late and left early many days and caused the job to take much longer then it should have. He put a whole in our drywall and fixed the drywall but had to repaint the bedroom to match the color. He did not remove the wall paper at the top of the wall to do the paint job correctly and he painted about a three inch stripe of white on the ceiling on one side that sticks out like a sore thumb because he did not repaint the rest of the ceiling. He put in an outlet for me but the whole is too big and the outlet cover does not cover all of it. He did not put the trim up in the shower along the floor and there is a gap. He did not use the correct caulk around the tub and never came back to replace it. On the house in Illinois he put down the floor but did not mark or cut out the vents in the floor. The gap he left next to the wall is too wide and can't be covered by the trim. We have to pay someone to fix the gap and we have to pay another person to do the floors in both bathrooms that he was already paid to tile. The shower he put in our one bathroom does not drain properly. The drain is not the lowest place in the floor and I have to manually make sure the water drains. The shelf he put in my shower is too long and sticks out past where the shower curtain goes so I have to cut and tape the shower curtain around the shelf to keep from getting water all over the floor every time I take a shower. He was very friendly at first but very belligerent and cussed us out when he was asked to complete his work and/or repair the damage he caused. He brought his wife to the jobsite and she tried to start a fight with me. I do not want to fight. I do not even want him to ever come back into my home. I do think he needs to pay us the money he cost us and the money he was paid for work he did not do. I also do not want to see him do this to anyone else."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Level 4 is the most commonly used drywall finish for visible interior walls. Finishing the drywall to Level 4 rovides a smooth surface ready to be painted with flat paint. 

Level 2 and 3 finishing are also common, particularly on walls that will get covered.

It’s less costly to drywall a fireplace than shiplapping it since material costs are higher for shiplap. However, if you’re DIYing the project, shiplap is less expensive since you won’t have to pay for labor. With drywall, getting a smooth finish is difficult unless you’re a pro. Shiplap is ideal for an accent wall or unique space, such as around a fireplace, since it adds texture and gives off a cozy vibe.

Yes, it is possible to DIY install drywall, but it is a deceptively complicated process that can be quite frustrating if you don’t have experience. Prepare to cut and screw drywall, leave the proper gap distance for any seams, never leave the end of a piece of drywall hanging off of a stud, and cut out around electrical boxes and switches. Plus, getting the drywall to look good is challenging, especially when taping and spackling. That’s why it’s usually a better idea to hire a professional drywall installer to ensure high-quality results.

You should do a little bit of sanding between adding coats of mud. Knock down any ridges or significantly imperfect areas through sanding, which should help you apply the next coat of mud smoothly. If your first coat of mud is pretty smooth after it dries, a quick sanding is all you’ll need. Don’t forget to wipe away any dust after each sanding process.

It doesn’t matter which way you lay drywall, and you can choose to install it horizontally or vertically depending on the size of the wall and how tall the ceiling is. It’s easier to lay drywall sheets vertically if you have a taller ceiling, but laying sheets horizontally makes it easier to apply joint compound.
