"We hired Brian to fix our leaky windows. We weren't sure it could even be done. But he improvised something using weatherstripping, and our home is nice and warm now as the wind howls outside at 20 degrees. He worked quickly and kept us informed every step of the way. We are extremely pleased."

"I only wish I could recommend this man in person to everyone who is considering hiring him. He is absolutely FANTASTIC! He is kind, prompt, respectful of a budget and VERY easy to work with. He was able to do repairs and the clean up of my summer place after the previous owners had left it in a less than desirable state. Mike TRANSFORMED it! I've stayed there only one weekend to date and the neighbor's compliments are great! He worked amazingly fast and did it RIGHT. It's BEAUTIFUL. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR.....HIRE THIS GUY!!!"

"Bill was excellent! He always replied to my calls or emails. We set up an appointment and he was there when promised. He, along with another carpenter, Bob, did an outstanding job. They were well organized, showing me what they were doing all along the way, and finished in a timely manner. Bill even charged me less than the original quote (almost half). It is difficult to find contractors that are responsible, honest and that do quality work. I HIGHLY recommend QHI for any services you may need around your home."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Some painters will repair minor drywall damage. For repair work of any kind, it’s a good idea to hire the professional required for the job. Many painters will have the materials on hand and can add them to the total cost. While you may save some money, there is a chance the work will be subpar compared to a professional who specializes in drywall.

Costs depend on damage extent of damage, labor, finishing, and whether mold remediation is needed.

This depends on how much plaster is applied and in how many layers, but a decent estimate is around 150 square feet. If you are applying only two coats on a small wall, there is a chance you may only need one or two gallons for the entire project. If you are plastering a large living room wall with high ceilings, using one of the more involved techniques–like Scagliola–that requires several coats, expect the project materials costs to add up quickly. 

The easiest way to remove texture from walls is the soak-and-scrape method. You’ll need to spray a section of the wall with water and let the water soak in and soften the texture. Then, you need to scrape the texture off using a drywall taping knife. This method works best with unpainted walls since paint prevents water from saturating the textured joint compound.

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.
