"George with Roesner Construction responded quickly to both our request and with an estimate. He completed both our initial project and some additional projects in a timely fashion. He did a great job with the drywall repair and the painting. We will keep him on our list of folks to call when we need work in the future!"

"We contacted Willy to help us with multiple projects for our house. We are in the process of remodeling an old fixer-upper. Willy and his crews have been doing all of our heavy work for us. We are beyond satisfied with the work he has done. So far, he completed projects such as: new roof, rain gutters, James Hardy siding , exterior painting, new deck, and interior trim work. He will also be remodeling the interior of our house. Willy and all of his men are honest, polite, professional, and very skilled at their trade. We would definitely recommend him to anyone."

"I first called CDM Handyman Services to see if they could come out and give me some estimates on some needed projects around my house. Emily returned my call within the hour, and we scheduled a time for later on the same day. Zack & Emily arrived promptly and took notes on what I needed completed. They worked up the estimate and emailed me the itemized list with the price for each job (for labor and materials). I hired him immediately because he had been so reliable and polite. He did an excellent job on installing a new outlet on my front porch ceiling, removing and replacing the PVC metal on three of my exterior window ledges, and mounting a heavy blanket rack inside the house for me. He finished these jobs in a day and then 30 minutes on another day (Thanksgiving interrupted us lol). He did an excellent job on all projects, was always on time, cleaned up, and was always so polite and friendly. He did not waste time. I will definitely hire him again!! I highly recommend him!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.

Costs depend on labor, material quality, wall preparation, and finishing requirements.

The age of your home can clue you in to whether you have plaster or drywall ceilings. Homes built after the ‘70s are more likely to have drywall ceilings and walls, while older homes have plaster. You can also do the pushpin test: A pushpin will go into drywall, whereas it’s much harder to push one into a plaster wall. If you’re still unsure, ask a drywall professional to let you know which type of ceilings and walls you have.

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.

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.
