We are a fully insured company with skilled craftsmen who have been working together for 14 years to bring you quality workmanship, experience in residential and commercial projects, and confidence in our abilities to deliver a professionally completed job. Our goal is to provide excellent plastering services with every project. We work with each customer personally to meet their requests and complete the job to their total satisfaction.

"Working with Derek and his team was great. The ceiling repair was being paid for by the HOA master insurance carrier, and I was so thankful Derek was willing to take the job, despite knowing that the payment process was going through insurance, and was delayed. He was very kind, patient, understanding, timely with replies, and always followed through with his word. He actually restored my faith that there are honest contractors out there. His quote was more than fair, and his team traveled like 2, 2.5 hours for the job. His guys were always on time, very personable, and professional. They also went above and beyond by painting the walls, even though that wasn't part of the quote. Overall, Derek & his team are very trustworthy, reliable, fair, and all around kind. I would hands down call them again & refer them, especially because there are a lot of dishonest contractors out there. Thanks Derek & team! Cheers!"

"Once again, Ranieri Construction has gone above and beyond our expectations! We needed to have our inground pool patched and painted, and may I say Andrew (and Lou) did an outstanding job. My husband usually spends time (and $) at the beginning of the season making sure the water stays clean and clear. But patching up all the spots, and then painting the entire pool ensured the pool was so much easier to clean and keep clear on day 1. The improvements also made it easier to maintain the water balance and keep clean. Please consider these folks- they are prompt, detail oriented and very efficient. Feel free to get in touch with us if you want to hear more"

Exterior painter for thirty years, now taking on more inside work. Mainly because there is generally less dust involved, which is better for my lungs. But come spring? Pretty good chance I'll tight up my mask and have at it again.

"All went great."

Pierce Building and Repair is family-owned and operated in Phillipston, Ma. I am a licensed and insured building contractor and have been building in Massachusetts for over 26 years. I am focused lately on larger remodeling projects and have been certified in 'aging in place' design. The materials and methods I use are selected based on how I have seen them perform. We, in New England, are economical in how we do things. I believe in long-term solutions and choosing high quality products in order to use money wisely. Our homes are often our biggest investment, and it is important to help them retain their value and be able to stay in them in our golden years if we so choose.

"Gary gave me a fair estimate within a couple of weeks and started the job soon afterwards. I was very impressed with the quality of his work and the speed at which he got done (about 5 days). He and his workers were professional, polite, and cleaned up every day. I would not hesitate to recommend Gary for any repair or renovation project."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.

Water-damaged drywall should almost always be replaced. Not only does it look bad, it’s a breeding ground for toxic mold. Even if you think the area is dry and there’s no active leak, the only way to be sure is to cut out the damaged area and see for yourself.

Whether you can reuse a drywall anchor or not depends on the type. Plastic expansion anchors and plastic self-drilling anchors, which expand once screwed into the wall, are single-use only. You can't straighten and reuse them after removing them from the wall.

Metal toggle bolts can be reused, provided you can successfully remove the toggle from behind the wall. Once you remove the bolt, the toggle often falls down and can be difficult to retrieve without removing the drywall.

How you hang the drywall can affect the finishing process. It's often easier to finish horizontal drywall panels, as the seams run across the wall rather than up and down. Standard drywall panels are 48 inches wide, so the seam is easy to reach without bending down or stretching your arms.

A nail in drywall cannot hold very much—usually only a few pounds. A nail in a stud can add support and hold around 20 pounds. If you are trying to hang something heavier, get some help from drywall anchors—toggle bolts are very strong and able to withstand more weight.
