"Mike Motto actually reached out to me when He saw I was on Home Advisor for a ready to hire paint job. He is professional and detail oriented. He came out to see what I needed, and had an estimate back to me within a few days, and we were under contract in less than a week from our first meeting. The guys came out to paint and do some drywall and door repairs and all was said and done within 2 weeks of our first meeting. I never thought it would be possible to leave painting professionals in my home unattended working , so I could go to work, but that exactly what I did. Mike assured me that he does a background check on his employees and he is insured as well. I Will definitely hire Elite Contracting again with great confidence!! So should Anyone else (:"

"Glen and his team arrived promptly at the agreed-upon time. With in 20 minutes the rooms were prepped and ready to be primed. All furniture and flooring was covered with drop cloths and tarps, the work promptly began. As the crew was about to complete the task we did a visual inspection and I being a perfectionist pointed out some areas of concern, the team quickly and easily fixed the issue and did their own inspection again. The attention to detail coast to coast offers is amazing, Glenn and his workers even trimmed in some sections of the walls that we had not completed prior to their arrival. When we told Glen not to worry about finishing our project he insisted, on the premise that it would take away from the work him and his crew were going to do and then they did not agree with leaving half finished projects. That type of customer service is well worth The fair price that was agreed upon. Glen and his crew will be our first call for any pressure washing or painting needs in the future."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

According to the EPA, mold grows within 24 to 48 hours if left untreated after a water leak. So unless you notice the leak and stop it right away, you only have a day or so before mold is a real concern. If you don’t notice the leak, it can take about three weeks for the mold spores to become visible. That means you’ve likely had an active mold infection for a few weeks by the time you notice discoloration.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

Popular wall textures include orange peel, knockdown, spray sand, and smooth finishes. Orange peel and knockdown are particularly common choices for drywall as they are simple and cost-effective. Orange peel texture has a lightly bumpy surface resembling the skin of an orange, while knockdown (sometimes called knockout) looks like a stucco finish with flattened high spots. In contrast, popcorn texture has fallen out of fashion, partly due to its past association with asbestos and a shift toward more restrained interior design styles.

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.

It is more difficult to drywall a ceiling than it is to drywall a wall, but not so hard that DIYers can’t tackle it. One of the main issues with hanging drywall on your ceiling is getting it into place. Drywall isn’t light so, if you are hanging full drywall panels, you will need at least two (it’s better with more) people to hold the panel while you drill it into the ceiling as a single piece can weigh between 40 and 60 pounds and will need to be held in place for up to 10 minutes.
