"Exceptional Service from Cramsey Creations LLC I wanted to share a quick note about the fantastic experience I had with Cramsey Creations LLC. They recently handled a variety of handyman tasks and small projects around my home, and the results were outstanding. They managed everything from electrical and plumbing repairs to the footing of a new shed. Throughout the entire process, they were incredibly professional and knowledgeable. One thing I truly appreciated was how they took the time to explain exactly what was happening and what the next steps would be, which made the whole project feel seamless. I would recommend them 100% and will definitely be hiring them again for future projects!"

"Bob came in and looked at the job(s) and gave his opinion about what to do in the bathroom. He tore out all the old stuff and completely remodeled my bathroom and added shelves for storage. Wired in better lighting and replanned the tub. Put in the flooring. Painted walls and ceiling. Bob was more than fair in his pricing, does the job quickly. He also cleans up afterwards. I have since had uncle Bob in my house to do other jobs for me. He is my go to guy for home repairs and remodels."

"FD General Contractors were so nice, professional and Davis and Franklin were so accommodating. When they finished installing the fence they made sure I was satisfied with the work they did, and they did an excellent job of cleaning up when done. I would highly recommend this company."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The age of your home can clue you in to whether you have plaster or drywall ceilings. Homes built after the ‘70s are more likely to have drywall ceilings and walls, while older homes have plaster. You can also do the pushpin test: A pushpin will go into drywall, whereas it’s much harder to push one into a plaster wall. If you’re still unsure, ask a drywall professional to let you know which type of ceilings and walls you have.

Regular inspections, repainting, and avoiding moisture exposure help maintain integrity.

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.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

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.
