"I had a fantastic experience with TCL Remodeling for my drywall repair. From the very beginning, their communication was outstanding—they were always prompt to respond and kept me in the loop the entire time. The pricing was very fair and transparent, and the quality of the work was great. You can’t even tell there was damage to begin with, and they left the area completely clean. I would recommend to anyone needing reliable and professional service!"

"We hired Bill to repair drywall after a ceiling leak, to replace a ceiling fan, and to install a new light fixture. After stopping by the house, Bill provided a timely and accurate quote. He communicated effectively via text about when the work would begin, his hours, etc. Bill went out of his way to match very old paint samples so that we didn't need to repaint the whole room. The work was well done & looks great. Bill is friendly and kind. We had no hesitation leaving him alone in the house while we went to work. I will definitely hire him again for other jobs."

"Hector was very professional and took his time. He cleaned up and laid down coverings when repairing my walls and ceilings. The paint was amazing and he paid attention to detail throughout the whole project. I have him coming again for a few other rooms I am having nail pops and cracks repaired in the drywall. Once complete, he had a maid come in and do a full deep cleaning. Highly recommend."

"Solid work at a great price. Jobs involved fixing a roof, a wall, a ceiling/drywall, and repainting a room. All were accomplished quickly, on time, for an affordable budget, and with a smile. Will absolutely rehire Cadel for our next home repair projects."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Whether you apply the drywall mesh before or after drywall mud depends on the type of patch it is. For self-adhesive patches, you’ll put the patch down first and then coat it with mud. Mesh patches that are not self-adhesive will require you to put mud down first and then press the mesh into it, followed by additional coats of mud.

If you’re installing new drywall, you may need to skim coat the drywall first for a smooth finish and to allow the primer to adhere to the wall. It’s only necessary if there are imperfections in your drywall due to issues with the studs or improper drywall installation. If you’re refreshing existing walls, you may want to skim coat if there are imperfections across the wall. As an alternative, you can repair your drywall and sand it for a smooth finish before painting.

When sanding drywall mud, you’re going to create a very fine dust that may contain silica. Silica dust contains crystalline silica, which can cause long-term illnesses for people who inhale it in significant quantities. Wear a mask while sanding drywall. Then dampen a drywall sponge to wipe the dust off the drywall, helping to reduce the amount of dust that may become airborne.

The person’s skill will affect how many drywall sheets they can hang in one day. Some people can hang 10 or more sheets in a day, while others may only hang six or seven sheets. It also depends on the framing complexity since custom cutting and fitting the drywall can prolong the process.

When doing a DIY paint job, it can be tricky to achieve the perfect, straight line between your wall and ceiling. There are several methods, including lining it with painter’s tape and using the “cut in” brush tactic. Some homeowners choose to apply a thin line of caulk to the wall-ceiling seam to create the appearance of a perfect line.
