"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."

"We hired Aden and his crew to install two windows near our kitchen on a wall that previously hadn’t had any. Aden patiently worked with us to find a solution within our budget and began work ONE DAY after signing the contract—well ahead of the timeline we had expected. From start to finish, he was responsive, accommodating, and enthusiastic about our vision. We are quite pleased with his work and would not hesitate to contact him again for future projects!"

"The Garcias did a beautiful job on the bedroom. I had removed wallpaper and in the process gouged the drywall in several areas and pulled off some drywall tape. They had to patch and retape the drywall as well as sand the walls before they could even prime and paint them. The end result was truly impressive and I was pleased with the competitive pricing for the project. I will definitely hire the Garcias for any future painting projects."

"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

You should leave a gap between drywall sheets because they naturally expand and contract along with the building framing as temperature and humidity change. Most pro drywall installers leave a gap of about ⅛ inch between drywall sheets, allowing the sheets to expand, contract, and shift without cracking or becoming damaged. If you don’t leave enough gaps between slabs, the edges will press against each other when they expand, and the pressure can cause visible cracks.

Through expert matching of texture and paint for an invisible repair.

The easiest way to cut holes in drywall for electrical boxes is to use a spiral saw with a drywall router bit. Hang the drywall without cutting out a hole for the box, but make sure you measure and mark where the box is located on the wall. Once you screw in the drywall sheet, drill a small hole into the box void, insert the spiral saw bit, and move it around the edge of the box using the inside wall as a guide. You can also use an oscillating multi-tool with an electrical box cutout for fast, professional results.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

Look for flaking paint or air bubbles that burst and then flake away. Paint will begin to flake after being exposed to minimal moisture or water, so it’s a good indicator of any water damage. If you notice your paint starting to flake, feel the plaster underneath to see if it is soft or damp.
