"If you are looking for a master craftsman, look no further than Jerry, the owner of Ace of Trades! From start to finish, Jerry?s work on our home remodel was nothing short of spectacular. His attention to detail, creative problem-solving, and unwavering commitment to perfection turned our house into a dream home. What truly sets Jerry apart is his ability to blend craftsmanship with vision. He did not just follow plans; he improved them, suggesting ideas we would never considered, and the results were incredible. Whether it was custom carpentry, flawless tile work, or transforming dull spaces into functional works of art, Jerry nailed it every time. Not only is his work exceptional, but Jerry himself is a true professional. He was punctual, communicative, and respectful of our home and time. He even cleaned up so thoroughly at the end of each day that we hardly knew a major remodel was underway. "

"Clay & Kristen are wonderful people to work with. They explained & discussed everything ahead of time before they started. Any concerns they addressed ahead of time. They truly live by their name they picked for there company. I have had alot of different drywall people over the years & none of them took the time to clean up & tape doorways off & blow the dust out the windows to keep the sanding drywall dust out of the rest of my home. And when they finished sanding they saw I had the primer there & surprised me & rolled it on. That was great. That just left me the paint to put on. Even though they went above & beyond by rolling on the primer they still stayed with the price they quoted me at the end. They would not take any money until the end. They want to make sure the customer is happy with the job. Very friendly people and I would definitely use them again. If you want drywall hung this is the company to go with. And one more thing. They are such hard workers they started my project Sept 1st labor day morning & was there at 8 am. So they didnt even take the holiday off. Thank you both so much. Stay safe."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Skimming is covering drywall with a layer of drywall compound after installation or to smooth old walls. Plastering is covering walls with a mixture of gypsum or lime, cement or sand, and water. Plastering is more costly and labor-intensive than skim coating. Some homeowners and professionals refer to skim coating as plastering, even though the material spread over the wall is totally different.

Like many other repair projects, the cost to fix a behind-the-wall shower leak depends on several factors. The cost of your repair may depend on the type of leak (from a clog or burst pipe), type of piping, and location of the leak. The extent of the issue and how difficult it is to access the pipes can greatly impact and increase your price. On average, you can expect to pay around $150 to $600 to repair a leaking shower.

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.

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.

Drywall can be better than plaster if you’re installing a new wall and want to keep costs low. It’s much cheaper than installing plaster and provides a smooth, uniform surface. Many homeowners simply paint over the drywall or add a texture like sand or orange peel. It’s also much easier to DIY than plaster, and if you need to change your layout, it’s much easier to remove.
