"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."

Customers say: Quality work

"They tore out my entire bathroom, scrapped the ceiling, tore out everything else, the tub and surround. Blank slate. They put tile on the floor and walls for the shower, painted the ceiling and the walls. Put in new light fixtures, new vanity, and countertop, new toilet, towel bars, new moldings. They painted the ceiling and the walls, but never painted the moldings at all, they were just the primed moldings they bought at Lowes. The new floor molding that was put on after the floor was installed is still just the primed molding. The molding around the ceiling was just hit-and-miss, I see spots of the old yellowed paint and part of the white ceiling paint they used on the ceiling. I asked them to paint the door, that was not even done either until I asked them, and then they threw on a fast coat that did not cover everything. I think they were in a big hurry to get to all the other jobs he had going on at the same time as he often only worked a couple of hours a day to fit us in between his other jobs. I had an appt with him to do the entire job, figured it would be a week tops, but because he had so many other jobs going at the same time it was strung out three weeks. Also, I told him the very first time he came out to give me a quote, I would not put up with him just working a few hours here and there. He said he did not work that way. Well, he does work that way and I was very disappointed. There are big white spots on the shower floor, which I am guessing is from the grout or something, but it will not come off and looks bad. All the workers were very kind and respectful, and they worked well together."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can usually tell if you have plaster or drywall by touch (plaster is harder, colder, and smoother than drywall) or by tapping on it (drywall sounds hollow, plaster does not). If you still cannot tell, peek under an outlet cover and check the cut edges. The rough edges show the composition of the wall. You will see either drywall (two paper sheets sandwiching gypsum material) or only plaster material (no paper sheets).

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.

The short answer is yes, a sagging plaster ceiling is dangerous. Sagging plaster on a wall is something you should fix immediately, but it isn’t a major concern. If the same type of sagging occurs on a ceiling, however, you could be in danger of your ceiling falling in large chunks. When plaster sags, it loses its strength and ability to hold itself up. The bonds that hold it together are strong, though, so if a sagging area falls, it will take large pieces down with it.

While fumigation chemicals cannot pass through solid objects, they will seep into any openings in walls, doors, or other closed spaces. This allows them to get into tight places where pests may be hiding and causing damage, like termites ruining the foundation of your home. It also means that your home needs to ventilate for 48 hours before returning to ensure that no harmful chemicals remain in your space. 

Plaster can be a difficult DIY to master, especially if you plan to plaster an entire room, rather than patch a small area. Before you begin a plaster DIY project, you need to know which tools and type of plaster to use. It's also important to know how to prepare the surface and apply the plaster for a smooth finish. If that all sounds like a lot of work, you may prefer hiring a local plaster repair contractor to do the job.
