"Jeramy, an employee of PatchMasters did a great job of repairing the issues the previous drywall company left behind. He was prompt, professional, technically proficient, and completed repairing the drywall for my basement room one day ahead of schedule. I would hire them again."

Customers say: True professional

"Juan and his team did incredible work and fixed up a lot of things in my house. Some large, some small. - Fixed and painted 2 walls that had been damaged by previous contractors - Repaired a 6x6 post in the deck - Updated all of the power outlets in the kitchen - Power-washed the entire exterior of the house - Fixed and cleaned the large fountain in front of the house - Painted areas of drywall that were exposed after replacing thermostats The team was very accommodating and professional the whole way. They really took care of my house. Not only that, but unlike a lot of contractors that only show up to sell to you and collect payment with the work subcontracted out, the owner if the company is out there doing the work with the team. I will absolutely hire this crew again."

"We hired Dwight and his crew to repair a drywall hole. We also needed them to clean up the drywall on our ceiling to make it look great. They applied a knockdown texture and painted it. They also cleaned up some other projects we needed (a ceiling transition, tape pealing in our master bath vaulted ceiling, and unfinished drywall project. Dwight gave good advice without being pushy. His crew was quick, quiet and did a great job. It all looks great."

"Hired Mike to paint a large den that we’re converting to a bedroom, and needed the job done as soon as possible. Mike came out immediately, did a thorough inspection of the room, pointed out necessary minor wall repairs and described his solutions. His estimate was fair and competitive and he was able to get started within a couple of days. He showed up when he said he would and was meticulous about preparation and painting. The room looks great. I would recommend MLP Home services for any interior painting and repairs."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

If your home’s foundation shifts slightly over time, any seams in the drywall represent the weakest point in the wall, leading to cracks. If your home has significant changes in temperature and humidity, this can cause the drywall to swell and contract slightly, causing a crack at the weak point of the seam. If your drywall installer did a poor job securing the panels to the wall studs, this could cause a weak layout and cracks in the seams.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.

You’ll get better results if you soundproof the whole wall. A hole through which light can pass can also let sound waves in. Acoustical or silicone sealant applied to holes and cracks can block enough sound to make a difference. However, the more layers absorb vibrations and slow or stop sound waves, the less noise you’ll have. 

The time it takes for thinset to dry is determined by your room’s ambient temperature and humidity levels. Assuming the average humidity level is around 40% with an average temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit, thinset can dry within 48 hours. Lower temperatures and higher humidity can extend the curing process beyond 72 hours, while high heat and zero humidity can shorten the curing process. However, thinset can crack if it dries too fast.
