"Brian was able to swiftly identify the issue I was having with a leak in my roof and was able to repair a spot in my ceiling that had been been damaged by the leak. He explained everything clearly along the way and was very thorough. Everything about the experience was very positive. I will definitely have Brian back to do a few other jobs I have."

"In summary I have to say Richard was  excellent!  He came when he said he would and finished the work when he said it would be finished.  As I solicited multiple bids for the work NE Renovations was among the most competitive.  As the work was completed I was so pleased I ended requesting he come back to do additional jobs.  He was very accomadating and even explained various options on how best to accomplish the additional work.

"Right from the beginning, Greg has been very professional in the way he scheduled the work at our place, and the way he and his team has handled the project.
We have a large bedroom in which we planned to installed the recessed lights. The deal advertised on Angie's List is very attractive (by far the best deal) with the only caveat that drywall repair is not included in the service. We were a bit concerned, and hoped that nothing will be damaged in this process. We are quite relieved that the project ended successfully with no painful issues. 
The work has started at 9 AM (yes, Greg has shown up on time at the work place!) and ended just before 11 AM. They have cleaned-up after the work, and the room is very bright with the newly installed beautiful lights. 
With no reservation, I recommend this provider for electrical services such as installation of new lights.

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.

If you want to reduce sound transmission throughout your home, soundproofing drywall is a better choice than standard drywall. However, simply installing soundproofing drywall may not completely block out noise. You’ll get the best results from incorporating it into a larger soundproofing plan that includes proper insulation and framing studs.

To hide drywall edges, you need to properly apply drywall tape and multiple layers of joint compound. These materials hide the seams between drywall sheets and fill the holes from drywall screws, leaving behind a smooth, flat finish to paint over. Apply joint compound smoothly, and finish the job by sanding the walls to make sure you fully hide drywall edges and other imperfections.

The best tool for skim coating drywall is a skim coating blade, which can smooth out joint compound in wide stretches. While you could use a smaller drywall knife for skim coating, the smaller size means it’ll take longer to smooth out each section. Instead, consider investing in a skim coating blade for the quickest application.

New plaster must be fully dry and cured before painting. The drying time for plaster ranges from 1 to 4 hours, but the curing process can take more than five days, depending on various factors, including humidity levels, temperature, the amount of plaster used, and airflow in the area. You should always apply primer before painting plaster.
