"HomeAdvisor was an immense help to us in identifying an experienced contractor in our Bar Harbor, Maine area to sand, stain, protective coat and polish our over 50-year old hardwood floors that were in great need of re-finishing. We hired B and B Contractors out of Winter Harbor, Maine and are extremely pleased not only with the diligent and expertise workmanship of Brandon Blanchette and his crew and also how polite and comfortable they were in doing and completing this job while we were nearly 2,000 miles away as our travel plans had required. We felt totally safe in leaving our house key and this big job in B and B s great care and possession. This job included 3 rooms and a hallway and several closets. We elected to have it completely sanded to eliminate stains and slight waves in the oak hardwood flooring, then 2 coats of stain were applied and 3 coats of polyurethane followed by buffing once dried. The photographs that Brandon sent us clearly indicated that we now have a beautiful floor. And B and B was superb in making sure the house was cleaned up well after such a messy job. And by the way, this job also included moving many pieces of furniture which they took care of for a nominal charge. We highly recommend this trusted company s services and high work ethics."

"Everything went wonderfully with this company.  They were very professional, listened to exactly what my problem was, and explained to me how they were going to diagnose the problem and/or solve it before doing any actual work.  Once they started, the team (three people came) worked together like a well-oiled machine.  One was in the room with diagnostics, one was at the fuse box looking for possible problems there, and the third went into the crawlspace beneath our house to look at the physical wiring.  Once the problem was found (there was a faulty wire beneath the house that had come loose from the junction box), it was fixed and tested within minutes and another full diagnostic was done to make sure there were no other possible issues.  They cleaned up after themselves very neatly.  They also replaced the light switch with a dimmer switch at no extra cost!  Well within my budget, and came in even lower than their original (FREE) estimate!  I would highly recommend this company to anyone in the Bergen County area.

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.

Brick and stucco are a lot more different. You must use picture hanging clips designed for brick walls, or use a plaster rail system with adjustable hooks. Any other type of hanging hardware will cause damage to the bricks behind. You won’t be able to really use nails, either, because they’re not strong enough to go into the bricks.

Drywall can get wet and dry out without sustaining permanent damage, but only if the water damage is minor. If you have a small leak and are quick to correct the issue and set up blower fans and dehumidifiers, your drywall should dry out. If the leak is persistent, the drywall becomes totally waterlogged, or mold begins forming on the drywall, you should remove and replace it.

Yes, it is possible to rewire a house without removing the drywall, but this doesn’t work in all homes. You can pull out old wires and insert new ones if you have access to the wiring system via the ceiling or through a crawl space. Some pros can also use a magnetic kit to fish the old wire out of the wall through a hole cavity and install the new wires. Just keep in mind that doing this is less stable than removing drywall, as you won’t be able to staple the wires into the framing.

A jigsaw is commonly used to cut holes in drywall. It offers versatility and precision, making it suitable for creating circular or irregular openings. When equipped with the right blade, a jigsaw can swiftly and cleanly cut through drywall, making it a good choice for DIY projects.
