"James was part of the team we hired to totally renovate our master bathroom as well as 2 bathrooms, utility room, and other projects at my parents’ house to get it ready to sell. James did the drywall for our master - it looked flawless. He was also able to match the ceiling texture to what we already had. He was very professional and I would definitely recommend and hire him for fire jobs."

Hello my name is Kylie, I have been in the drywall and painting fields for over 20 years. I am willing to travel over an hour from the Midland, Bay City, and Saginaw area for jobs.

I am very easy to get along with and really listen to what the needs of the job are so making a plan that will be satisfying to the home owner.

"Had to file a claim for new clothes dryer, and repairs on fridge. Foothills Star Appliance came to look at both. Eric was the repairman. He was friendly, answered all my questions, and very professional. I would highly recommend his company."

"David and his team did a great job with my drywall repair project. After the drywall on the ceiling in my bedroom began to come down because the glue that was used to bond the finish layer to the sub-layer was only rated to hold for 25 years, I ripped it all down, but while doing this it damaged the drywall on the walls near the ceiling, so I cut out a section of the damaged drywall a foot down from the ceiling all the way around the room. after installing the new drywall on the ceiling myself, David butt seamed in new drywall in that section at the top of the walls so that I would not have to rip it all down from the walls and start over. He did an excellent job floating it all out so that you cannot see where the seam is. I'm not a professional drywaller myself, but I know it takes patience and skill to do this and make it look good. He came out to my place as promised when we set appointments, and he started on the day he promised, coming back every day until the job was finished. Overall I would say he did a great job and it was a good value for the money. I plan to hire him again on a future bathroom remodel project. Thanks David! Rob - Saginaw Mi. October 11th, 2023"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.

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 your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.

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.
