"Straight Edge Painting Pros guys did awesome. It was exactly what I had imagined. Wes was very helpful in stating having the drywall ready for paint included priming and repairing imperfections which took an extra day. The guys took the time to make sure the drywall is perfect and ready for me to paint and also installed new baseboards."

"They did an excellent job! They ended up painting our whole house including some ceilings. There was paint designs they had to cover up and you can’t even tell anything was ever there. They had to fix holes in the wall,etc. they did so well that we asked them to remodel a room for us. They combined two rooms into one and it looks awesome! I keep sending them requests for other things I’d like done!"

"I was truly impressed and surprised with the work done by Chad. I had several small projects ( split rail fence repaired, door bell replaced, 2light fixtures replaced, and hot/cold temperature selection on tub) Couldn’t access it through the tub surround so he had to cut into from the hall wall. Fixed it and you cannot tell that he had to cut a whole through the chair rail. He was on time every day and went about his work quietly and efficiently. He is a very nice guy to talk with too. He is by far the best handyman I have ever hired. He also kept me informed of every single step and if a problem arose he showed me and explained what would have to be done so I totally understood. I figured these projects would cost more than I had budgeted (especially with the tub enclosure problem) but the final bill was what I considered not only responsible but actually cheap. I would highly recommend him and use him again. If I could rate more than 5 stars I would give him 100!!!"

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

Only use spackle on plaster walls when the imperfection is small. It’s best used for nail holes or small dings in the plaster. Spackle dries quickly, allowing you to continue the repair process shortly after using it. Plaster can be tricky to repair, though, so if you run into issues, call a pro so that you don’t risk further damage.

When you are learning how to tape and mud drywall, waiting for things to dry requires a lot of patience. So how long does drywall mud take to dry? On average, it takes about 24 hours. However, it depends on things like the thickness of the mud, as well as the room’s temperature, humidity, and ventilation. Using thin layers of mud in a warm, low-humidity room with good airflow reduces average drying time. You also could speed up drying time by making use of hot drywall mud, which consists of a powder that you mix with water, instead of using pre-mixed mud. 

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.

It doesn’t matter which way you lay drywall, and you can choose to install it horizontally or vertically depending on the size of the wall and how tall the ceiling is. It’s easier to lay drywall sheets vertically if you have a taller ceiling, but laying sheets horizontally makes it easier to apply joint compound.

If you’re installing new drywall, you may need to skim coat the drywall first for a smooth finish and to allow the primer to adhere to the wall. It’s only necessary if there are imperfections in your drywall due to issues with the studs or improper drywall installation. If you’re refreshing existing walls, you may want to skim coat if there are imperfections across the wall. As an alternative, you can repair your drywall and sand it for a smooth finish before painting.
