"Platium Painting is the most professional and diligent company I’ve ever hired. They make sure their customer is happy and satisfied. Debbie and her crew are excellent and caring. They work hard and do great work. Our popcorn ceiling is as smooth as butter. Debbie even kept me calm over color choices. The work they did on our wood railings and windows is amazing. We are new to the area and this company was a god send. I’d use them again and highly recommend them. From start to finish an excellent company. If you want the job done right this is the company to call! We are extremely happy with how they made our house into a beautiful home."
"Great honest contractors. They did my bathrooms, hot water heater, unclogged my house drain and they did a French drain so my basement is not wet anymore. I already hired them to do my whole roof in the spring. I will hire them anytime."

"I would highly recommend this business. We had them come and restain the deck and at first just powerwash the house. They scheduled the work right away. After doing the pressure washing, there were some areas with paint chips under the soffit. Mike offered to repaint those for free. During this, they noticed areas of the soffit that were rotten, so we had them repair those areas of the wood. They also fixed a few screens that were damaged during the pressure washing for free. Everything turned out great, and we are very happy we had this work done. Mike and Crystal are very professional and easy to work with. I will be having them do some more work on our house in the near future. "

"Had to file a claim for new clothes dryer, and repairs on fridge. Foothills Star Appliance came to look at both. Eric was the repairman. He was friendly, answered all my questions, and very professional. I would highly recommend his company."
"In September of this year my wife and I bought a home near Cedar Mountain. We had a few things that we wanted to get done to the house before we moved in. From Florida we researched contractors as well as through friends in our new community. I was not prepared for the casual attitude of many of the workmen I spoke with. Out of all of them, there was only one who showed up and did the work as promised, Mr. Wade Morris. Despite having to drive and extraordinarily long way to our home, Wade arrived every morning at 8:30 until the job was done. I had to return to Florida but I left Wade a key to finish up. When I got back to NC I was pleased to find the house clean and the work done to a high standard of professionalism. Little extras, like painting the bedroom baseboards (which was not part of our agreement) made me appreciate Wade and Gaye all the more.
You can take a few steps to save money on drywall installation, even when hiring a professional to do the bulk of the work for you. These ideas include the following:
Buy the drywall and other materials yourself to avoid product markup and delivery fees
Ask about discounts if you use the same company to tape, spackle, and paint
Hire drywall professionals in the winter when demand is the lowest
DIY as many parts of the project as possible, like replacing insulation and painting
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.
With its breathability and flexibility, lime plaster is among the most durable of all plaster types. It's also fire-resistant and has a proven track record, as people have been using it for thousands of years.
However, all plaster types will last for many years with the right care and treatment. Proper preparation and installation will also help ensure your plaster walls look great for as long as possible.
You should leave a gap between drywall sheets because they naturally expand and contract along with the building framing as temperature and humidity change. Most pro drywall installers leave a gap of about ⅛ inch between drywall sheets, allowing the sheets to expand, contract, and shift without cracking or becoming damaged. If you don’t leave enough gaps between slabs, the edges will press against each other when they expand, and the pressure can cause visible cracks.
Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.
