"If you want the job done right, Brackettry is your best bet. We hired Daryl to complete a full basement remodel and couldnâ t be more pleased with his work. The job was finished quickly, efficiently, and at the highest standard. Communication was easy and even as things came up, he was fully transparent and kept us involved in all decision making. Daryl never compromises the quality of his work with a quicker or easier route as other contractors might. He builds things to last. There arenâ t many with the same work ethic, professionalism, and overall skill as Daryl and his team, and it shows is every project they take on. HIGHLY recommend hiring Daryl for your next home improvement project!"

"If you're looking for quality workmanship, very reasonable pricing and dependability then Tony Gibson is your guy! This is the second painting project Tony has helped me complete. My project consisted of nail popped ceilings in need of repair and painting and painting of a hallway, bathroom, stairway and foyer. You couldn't ask for a more friendlier and accommodating guy than Tony. I highly recommend Tony and his team. Thank you Tony and Rowland for doing such an excellent job!"

"George's painting, inc was responsive and professional from start to finish. The project entailed wallpaper removal from 2.5 bathrooms and kitchen, repainting those rooms; installing a tile backsplash and vinyl tile floor in the kitchen; replacing the kitchen countertop; repairing a cabinet; repairing drywall and painting the ceiling in the master bedroom. The owner came out to do the estimate himself. He was accommodating when I wanted to expand the scope of the initial project and came out a second time to give me an updated estimate. He was easy to reach via cell or email. The estimate was more than fair. His crew completed the job in three days. The crew was polite, professional, and did a good job cleaning up at the end of each work day. I highly recommend this company and would use them again."

"The work was honestly great. Antonio gave a fair estimate. He arrived on time and finished when he said he would. He ended up doing additional drywall work on my older home and was respectful of the architecture. He was careful of my possessions and was very neat. I would have him back for any painting and drywall projects."

"I assumed that I had a leak from my roof that had caused some damage in
my ceiling.  Myriad said they could have someone over the next day
around 4:30.  Bill call to see if I was home at 2:00 and he was able to
come even earlier than scheduled.  This was great because I was in the
middle of painting the room and was anxious to finish.  He was very
friendly and got right to work.  Our big surprise was that a large
dormant bee's nest dropped out of my ceiling!  He continued to finish
the job and everything was done in excellent order.  He cleaned all the
nest fragments up along with the drywall dust.  I was very satisfied
with the job and very happy that the nest contained no live bees - whew!

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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 can paint over drywall mud about 24 hours after application, but the exact timing depends on factors like humidity, temperature, and the thickness of the mud. For the best results, ensure the mud is completely dry to the touch and has changed from a darker gray to a lighter, chalky white. Don’t forget to sand and prime the drywall surface before you paint to create a smooth, even finish.

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.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

A local drywall contractor can texture your drywall for you. Drywall contractors are a better choice than general handy people because the contractors have a lot of experience working with drywall mud. The process is somewhat of an art thanks to the complexity of working with the mud, so call in a drywall pro who knows what they’re doing.
