I’ve been working with tools and doing handyman and construction-type jobs for the past 4 years, with plenty of hands-on experience from my teen years doing odd jobs and repairs. I work in and around the Lawrence, KS area and can travel locally for most projects. I’m handy with tools and can take care of most small jobs—mounting, fixing, and general repairs around the home. I take pride in being reliable, friendly, and hardworking—getting the job done right the first time.

Hi my name is Curt Cunningham, I am the owner of Men In White Drywall a locally owned and operated business. I am a Lawrence native and I have 20+ years of experience in the industry.

Men In White Drywall specialize in plaster/drywall repairs, projects and new construction work. We pride ourselves on the quality of our work as well as our commitment to outstanding results. We look forward to building lasting relationships with our clients and guarantee your satisfaction!

"In the past we have had an extremely hard time finding anyone that was willing to come to the area where we live to give us a bid. We found a company located in a neighboring town that we hired to do a remodeling job for us. The work was so bad that they didn't even come back to pick up all of their equipment or finish getting paid for the job. So, when I sent a message through Angi I was surprised to receive a reply the same day from Men in White. Curt came out the next day and gave us the most reasonable bid we could imagine. I was sceptical but my husband who met Curt for the bid really liked him. Men in White got started the following week and had finished the job in a blink of an eye! Curt fixed the cracks in the tape & mud job that has appeared from the first company. In other words Curt came in and fixed the horrible job of the first company. I have been totally blown away by their workmanship. He cleaned up after himself & the communication from Curt was top notch!"

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Skimming is covering drywall with a layer of drywall compound after installation or to smooth old walls. Plastering is covering walls with a mixture of gypsum or lime, cement or sand, and water. Plastering is more costly and labor-intensive than skim coating. Some homeowners and professionals refer to skim coating as plastering, even though the material spread over the wall is totally different.

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.

Smaller is better when patching holes with spackle. Any holes wider than four to six inches in diameter tend to be too wide to repair with spackle alone. You'll likely want to patch bigger holes with a drywall panel. 

Even holes measuring up to 6 inches may be challenging to fill with spackle alone. For best results, purchase a wall repair patch made from wire mesh. Cut the patch to fit over the hole, then use the spackle to hold it in place. Apply the spackle over the patch as you would for a smaller hole.

Heat can help plaster dry faster, but it's very easy to get too much of a good thing. When exposed to high heat during the curing process, plaster can dry out too quickly, leading to cracks and affecting the material's integrity. The recommended drying temperature should be listed on the plaster's packaging. If possible, set the thermostat in the room to that temperature, but not any higher.

It may take a bit of patience and trial and error to match your particular drywall texture type when making repairs. For orange peel or knockdown finishes, use a spray texture product or a thinned joint compound applied with a roller or sponge. Practice on scrap drywall or cardboard first. Once dry, lightly sand and prime before painting.
