"Larry's team was meticulous and focused on restoring the walls in my 100+ year old duplex. Larry came in with great ideas and options and made the place look like new. All the cracks vanished! He even put up a new ceiling in one the bedrooms. I plan to use Preferred Drywall again very soon. Thanks Larry!"

"We enjoyed working with John and his crew. John has a good eye for assessing what needs to be done. He presented us with a reasonable estimate and a time line which he followed. He informed us of his progress on a daily basis and always checked in with us to make sure that he was doing everything according to the way we wanted it. His prices were reasonable, yet he used good quality materials, and his workmanship is excellent. By the time the deck had been repaired, sanded, and refinished, it looked better than it ever had before! We would strongly recommend Carenzo Remodel and Repair for any projects you have in your home."

"Marin did a great job for two minor plumbing-related projects. Replace a vanity and faucet, and a mini renovation on a laundry area to replace drain, sink, and add a rigid dryer vent. He was a great communicator via phone and text and surpassed my expectation for professionalism. He was courteous, on time, let me know everything that was happening, got my input when needed, and left me quite pleased with my shiny new fixtures. I would recommend him to family and friends and will definitely be calling him again."

"Crew is prompt, very experienced, clean, polite, hard working. They removed old paneling, installed drywall, replaced interior doors,refit all the trim woodwork, prime, and painted. The paneling and the new drywall are not the same thickness, so everything (doors, baseboard, crown moulding, light switches, plugs) had to be adjusted to fit. All the work was done quickly, professionally, and well. I'd call them back for any other work I have in the future."

"It is very convenient, and reasonably priced.  The only thing that they could work on is the punctuality of the pick up times.  The rest of the experience was satisfactory.  My daughter has also used them.  I would highly recommend this service."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.

Drywall repair is typically completed within a day, depending on damage extent.

Many homeowners choose to install tongue and groove over drywall. The great thing about this type of ceiling is that it hides imperfections. If your drywall is a little bit wonky or has some minor damage, the tongue and groove planks should cover it and give it an even appearance. Installation is simplest if you install battens over the existing framing before installing your tongue and groove planks.

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 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.
