"Fred was extremely knowledgeable about and did a great job installing the faucets as well as fixing the drywall in my garage, patching a hole in the siding and cleaning my dryer vent. He will be installing a fan in my porch soon. His rates are very fair and he is personable and on time. I highly recommend Fred Buckles!"

"After a washing machine overflowed on our second floor, we were left with water leaking through our first-floor ceiling. Once the water mitigation was complete, we needed professional drywall and painting work. Mike Miranda and the team at Hole in the Wall showed up early to give us a quote, which turned out to be by far the most fair price we received. Mike gave me a clear date and time, and his team arrived early, exhibiting an excellent work ethic and top-tier professionalism. ​Their craftsmanship is so flawless that you honestly cannot tell where the damage originally was. Beyond the quality of the work, I felt completely comfortable having them in our house—everyone was incredibly friendly and genuinely cared about ensuring the final result met our expectations. This company will leave your home looking even better than its original state. I highly recommend Hole in the Wall for any drywall or painting needs!"

The Cortesâ s did an excellent job, offered suggestions that improved the end result. We appreciated their expertise and definitely will reach out to them when we have painting projects in the future."

"We hired Keen Precision Drywall to finish our shed that will be used as a s/he shed, complete with electric. The shed is now ready for paint and decor and their work was impressive. They were always on time, communicating any issues that they ran into that were inevitably the fault of the builder. From the very beginning they were transparent with pricing and responsive to any questions we had even prior to being hired for the job. I would not hesitate to hire Kevin again for any other work at our home and we would happily refer them to others."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

If you suspect black mold is inside your walls, do not punch a hole in the drywall yourself to look. Call a mold inspection expert to help you. Some signs of a potential black mold infestation inside the wall include an unexplained musty, damp smell. Some people liken it to rotting vegetables. You may smell it most strongly through a wall outlet. If you and your family are experiencing constant coughing or symptoms that feel like an unexplained allergy, it could indicate black mold behind a wall.

The cost to texture drywall depends on whether you want to do the work yourself or hire a professional. The cost of the drywall mud is far lower than labor costs for applying it. The labor cost to spray drywall compound onto a wall is between $0.80 and $1.50 per square foot, while you’ll pay between $1.50 and $2 per square foot for the labor to apply the texture by hand.

Whether you apply the drywall mesh before or after drywall mud depends on the type of patch it is. For self-adhesive patches, you’ll put the patch down first and then coat it with mud. Mesh patches that are not self-adhesive will require you to put mud down first and then press the mesh into it, followed by additional coats of mud.

Which style of corner bead you choose—whether metal or paper-faced—depends on your preference and if you’re comfortable using metal-cutting tools and a hammer. Metal bead offers superior strength and durability but its installation is slightly more involved. We’d say for most cases, it’s better to use metal bead but if you’re not comfortable working with metal, paper-faced bead will work just fine. 

Yes, cabinets are installed over drywall. The drywall must be in good condition, and you must ensure that the wall can handle the weight of the cabinets. Secure the cabinets to studs and use proper anchoring devices, like toggle bolts.
