"We had leaks coming from two chimneys and we found Apple Valley Stucco on Home Advisor. Sebastian and his crew did an outstanding job of not only replacing the existing stucco on both but repairing one that had been badly damaged. Their work met the highest professional standards. The chimneys were painted to match the house, and they completely cleaned up the porch and yard where some debris had accumulated. They did the work on time and within the estimated cost. I recommend them without reservation."

"Nathan Nate was fantastic! He did a beautiful and thorough job on the task I hired him for. I then asked if he could do a few handyman repairs for me, like getting a bi-fold closet door back on its track and getting my doorbell to work. He easily completed these tasks. He even found a few things that needed repair that I didnâ t see. All of this was a tremendous help to me as I prepared to sell my home. With his help, my home sold 4 hours after it was listed!"

"Heath is very personable and prompt in answering phone calls before the job. He made "Special" pricing discounts to meet the cost restrictions I had. Some material aspects of the job needed to be cut back from other estimates I had gotten and were agreed upon. The starting and ending dates had to be postponed due to weather. After starting the job, it still took longer than expected. Heath did not supervise the job as he had indicated he would. He was more interested in getting another business started. The crew was friendly but not a regular crew. They were friends whose business was bad and they were helping Heath out. Some details of the job were not discussed beforehand and caused concern during the job but I felt I had no recourse once felt was left off half the house and roofing applied before the hole in the roof was patched. The roof patch done from the inside was not of the material specified in the contract and seems messily done. Here again, I didn't feel I could get it redone once installed. Clean up was not done well. They did not place tarps to catch all the debris inside the house and garage when taking off the roof. Even with having the crew come back a second time for cleanup, I still have a lot cleanup to do myself. Pieces of asphalt and grit and roofing nails cover the attic insulation and everything in my garage, and are scattered in my lawn aroung the house. The men on the job started out by putting ice breaks over the fron door and said they would put them over all doors, but, left the job without them. Heath came by for payment saying he had written checks to the crew which he couldn't cover. So, I gave him a check and a list of the things which had not been completed. I had seen leftover sheets of roofing material for completing the ice breaks before they left. When they returned the next week to complete the unfinished tasks, tiny pieces of metal roofing were cut and screwed on top of the roof rather than being shaped of larger sheets and installed under the lip of the roof as the first ones had been. That was how I expected the job to be done. I was not able to get the roof quarantee and tax credit paperwork from Heath. Once he received his last check, he stopped answering my calls or messages. He gave me a five year quarantee on the workmanship but doesn't answer calls. I think sheets of leftover material and the excess special screws I paid for should have been left with me for possible future use or I should have at least been consulted before their removal."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

You’ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish.

Plaster is a beautiful finish but is labor-intensive to install and remove. It’s vulnerable to cracking and more sensitive to moisture variance than drywall. Installing plaster on a new wall is an expensive process that can take days to weeks, depending on the scope. Removing a plaster wall can also be quite expensive and time-consuming.

Yes, you can use drywall repair techniques for some types of plaster damage. Tiny holes and small cracks in plaster can be patched in similar ways to drywall. You apply the necessary compound to fill the hole, wait for it to dry, then sand it down. For larger damage, like water damage or mold, you need to use plaster-specific techniques and materials.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

Common causes of ceiling cracks along drywall seams include poor drywall installation techniques, structural issues, truss uplift, and foundation problems. Temperature and humidity also play major roles in ceiling cracks flush with the wall. As the drywall shrinks and expands from major temperature changes or extreme humidity shifts, this can cause the drywall to crack.
