"We had fantastic work and timeline from Bob. They replastered our textured ceilings over 4 days and did a fantastic job. Bob was quick and easy to communicate with, as well as scheduling (estimate and work days). Several other contractors who came through the house complimented their work and the speed of the job."
"We live in a mobile home and noticed that the paint on the exterior was starting to look dingy. So, we started looking around for painters and found Urbano Painting. They were very courteous, professional, came out promptly to estimate, and gave us a good price. That courtesy and promptness carried through when we made the decision to hire them. They helped us pick out a good color, powerwashed and prepped thoroughly, the whole crew was very kind and professional (no foul language to even each other, messiness, or anything like that), and the paint job they did looks beautiful. It looks practically brand new! We are very happy with them and would recommend them to anybody; especially elderly people like ourselves. They were just so kind and conscientious at every step and that helped us feel safe with hiring them."
"Thrilled with the work they did - replacing some drywall and a few cracks. Very professional - looked beyond the immediate job to identify possible issues with no pressure. Did excellent work and cleaned up afterwards. Nice guys too! Will hire again."
"Steve did an excellent job, treating it like he was working on his own home. Very complete job and clean, too. I would not hesitate to hire him again or refer him to a friend."
"My husband and I hired Chuck to finish some drywall mudding and painting for my kitchen. He was timely and gave a reasonable rate! He was great to work with and my kitchen is amazing! Big thank you to chucks paint and handyman service!"
"Matt did an awesome job fixing our ceiling and walls in our bathroom . He was professional and reasonably priced! I give M.G & Sons paining a 5 star review!!"
"They did a fantastic job with my driveway. They managed to expand it so it can park all my cars and so I can pull in and out easily. I highly recommend them for everyone who wants their project to be done as soon as possible because they have great availability."
Glass walls are more expensive overall than their brick or drywall counterparts. However, if you need walls for a building with more than two or three stories, glass walls are the more budget-friendly option.
Regular inspections, repainting, and avoiding moisture exposure help maintain integrity.
Small patches can be DIY, but professionals handle large-scale repairs with seamless results.
A post-drywall inspection could uncover many problems that weren’t present during the pre-drywall inspection, including insufficient insulation, missing weather stripping, improperly installed plumbing and lighting fixtures, flooring damage, drywall damage, plumbing leaks, aesthetic issues, and more. Structural problems, which are often expensive to fix and are common reasons to walk away after a home inspection, are easier to see before the drywall goes up, but a post-drywall inspection may highlight minor issues with house settling and foundation problems.
You’ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish.
