"Dennis had previously painted the exterior of our home, and we knew we wanted him back when these two small projects in our home arose.

Dennis and his crew redid the drywall and repainted the ceiling in our office after a bath tub seal cracked.  This involved cutting out the drywall around a ceiling fixture and replacing it.  After they had finished, the repair was perfectly blended into the texture of the ceiling.  Really nicely done.

The second part of the job involved refinishing the 90 year old wooden sills in our living room.  The never-painted sills are beautiful hardwood, but over time (and in one case, the former owner had allowed some weather damage to occur) they had lost their finish and looked bad.

This is the kind of craftsmanship project that Dennis just seems dedicated to doing really well.  The wood of the sills was so hard and so completely cured, it was a challenge to get the new stain and poly-coat to properly take; Dennis came over four times to apply extra coats/top coats.  The result is wood with a deeply burnished, beautifully silkily finished texture. 

The final result looked a lot better than I had expected--more like the care a homeowner would take on their own home if they really knew how to apply the products.  All the sills are beautiful now and match perfectly, this was NOT the case when Dennis started working on the job.

Dennis is so dedicated, he does have one area of weakness: when he makes his bids, he has a tendency to underestimate the work hours necessary.  This is largely owing to his willingness to "go the extra mile" rather than simply slap up paint and presume the homeowner won't notice that he's ignored some complicating factor.  By the time he had applied the third coat of sealer, I was satisfied--but Dennis didn't like how the product was taking on the extremely dense wood and scheduled an extra visit to do the extra coat without my asking for it.  And he was right--that last coat made all the difference in really making the sills look beautiful and "pop" (in a good way!).

I love working with Dennis--wish I could find repair people/craftsmen like him in all the service areas I need!"

"Daren returned my call promptly, his bid was competitive and they did a great job. Daren and his crew are all very professional and they cleaned up after themselves each day. When they finished at the end of the week there was no evidence they had been here other than my freshly painted trim. They did a high quality job and were a pleasure to work with."

"I had received a bid through a personal referral and I sought 2 others through Angie's List. Jim's was a day or so late but was much less than the previous bid, so I hired him. He started immediately. He and the people that he retained did excellent work. They were very professional, courteous and conscientious. They made a significant effort to reduce the "mess" that naturally accompanies such work. The second bid came in a few days after Jim had started. It was slightly lower but I was very happy with Jim, his work and his relative punctuality. The slight difference in price was negligible compared to my satisfaction with Jim, his work and his desire to do things right."

"This turned out to be quite a large project. Paul Kothrade kept us informed throughout the entire project of how the scope was developing, and was very clear with the choices we could make at each step. He was also very good at listening to our ideas and plans, and working collaboratively with us - we developed a high level of trust. Everything happened when he said it would, and the quality of workmanship was very high at a reasonable cost. We are very happy with the work he did."

"They were very quick to respond to our issue - which was a leaking pipe in our basement. I tried a number of companies and they were the first who could respond. They were able to quickly identify the problem and when they felt the plumbing issue was more than they could handle, they let me know right away. Thus, we had to get a difficult company to take care of the plumbing issue but they came back to do quite a bit of drywall repair. They did a great job, were on time and did a nice job cleaning up when they were done. We were very happy with the job they did"

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Plastering lasts for around 15 to 20 years without needing repairs or maintenance in most cases, and with proper upkeep, plastering can last a lifetime—sometimes more than 100 years. Plaster repair costs between $1 and $3 per square foot, and you may need these services once every 15 to 20 years or so unless you have a harsh climate where humidity changes are a constant issue. You can also opt to skim-coat plaster for between $0.90 and $1.30 per square foot, which may serve you better in the long run.

If your premixed drywall mud is dried out or has begun to set in the bucket, you may be able to revive it by adding warm water and stirring. However, the first and most important step is to scrape off any hard, dried bits of drywall that may have accumulated toward the top of the container and throw them away because they will not easily reconstitute back into the drywall mud mix.

You will be placing holes in the wall to hang the mounting bracket. If you’re mounting a large TV, the bolts in use could make significant holes around half an inch in diameter. Other than a few holes, though, the process of mounting the TV should not cause significant damage to the wall, unless you make an error and miss the wall stud, tearing out drywall. Should you decide to remove the mount later, the DIY drywall repair cost for a small hole usually is $10 to $30. It’s a repair you can do in a few minutes.

If you’re looking for a reliable plaster repair company, you should start by researching local companies in your area and reviewing their status with the Better Business Bureau. Next, you can contact the potential companies to ask about experience levels, get a list of references, and ask for examples of past work. If you have a textured wall, consider asking if they have examples or references for that particular texture. This method should help you narrow your search even further. You may also want to ask each company if they provide a warranty for their work.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.
