"Daniel did a great job replacing the ceiling above our stairs. He ripped out the old plaster ceiling and replaced with a fresh sheet of dry wall, then painted. Job was done timely and communication was great."

"I hired Alamo to do drywall and mudding in a large room in my house. The work was amazing, and the workers were great to work with. I have never seen such hard workers. I am very pleased with the work, and would hire them again. They had the best price of three quotes that I received. Thanks for all your hard work."

"I was looking for painters and I got that plus carpentry and masonry repairs! The crew did an excellent job painting the exterior of our home. They replaced rotten wood, scraped and sanded, and used high quality product. Our chimney needed some repair and a mason quoted $2k... JRS fixed it for $500. They also reinforced floor joists and posts in the basement. Throughout the job Jaime shared updates and asked questions to ensure we were happy with the work. I highly recommend them."

"I highly recommend Mario of Izzo’s Painting for anyone needing plaster repair. From the very beginning, he took the time to explain every step of the repair process, which immediately gave me confidence that the job was being done correctly. As he reached each stage of the repair, he actually invited me to watch what he was doing and explained why each step was important. It’s rare to find someone so transparent and willing to share their knowledge. His craftsmanship is exceptional. The repaired plaster blends perfectly with the surrounding wall-you would never know there had been any damage. Mario is professional, meticulous and clearly takes great pride in his work. He treated my home with respect, kept the work area clean, and delivered results that exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for someone who is honest, highly skilled and truly passionate about quality workmanship, Mario Izzo/Izzos Painting is the person to call."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The best way to make long, straight cuts is to use a utility knife and a T-square to score the sheet, snap along the score, and then finish the cut by cutting through the paper on the opposite side with the utility knife. If you’re making small cuts, curved cuts, or cutouts for electrical boxes or light fixtures, you can use a manual jab saw to keep costs down, but an electric spiral saw or oscillating multi-tool will get the cleanest, fastest cuts possible.

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.

Yes, a fan can help drywall mud dry faster by improving air circulation and reducing humidity in the room. Drywall mud dries through evaporation, so increasing airflow speeds up this process. However, you should position the fan to blow across the room rather than directly on the wet mud. This helps prevent drying too quickly, which can cause cracking. You should also use a dehumidifier if high humidity is an issue.

Popular wall textures include orange peel, knockdown, spray sand, and smooth finishes. Orange peel and knockdown are particularly common choices for drywall as they are simple and cost-effective. Orange peel texture has a lightly bumpy surface resembling the skin of an orange, while knockdown (sometimes called knockout) looks like a stucco finish with flattened high spots. In contrast, popcorn texture has fallen out of fashion, partly due to its past association with asbestos and a shift toward more restrained interior design styles.

Yes, small, superficial cracks are normal as homes settle. Older homes have a higher chance of showing signs of settling through hairline cracks from temperature changes, moisture changes, and soil shifting. However, larger cracks, or discolored cracks from water damage, may signify a bigger problem that requires reparations and preventative measures.
