"Randy did our sliding door repair, framing repair, window repair, painting, deck gate installation, siding rot repair. I may be missing other jobs he has done for us. He is very knowledgeable, very good with communication, and most importantly, he is very reliable. He will do what he promised he will do at the time he says he will do it. We feel very lucky to have Randy help us in our home repair journey."

"So happy that I accepted A to Z's bid to renovate the interior of an older home that had been rented out for 12+ years. Some walls needed replacing, floor and sub-floor needed to be replaced, trim needed fixing, drywall need repairing and paneling replaced. Some paneling and drywall needed replacement on entire walls and ceilings needed repair and painting as well. Hamado's team were punctual every day and worked through the weekends to meet deadline, even as more things were discovered. They had to work around plumber and plumbing issues and were very professional, nice to work with and did an amazing job. The house looks new! I will use them again as I find new projects or any additional repairs to the property."

"We had a lightning strike which damaged the exterior and the interior. His team responded quickly to weather proof the damage. They followed up with window replacement, siding and roof repair, interior drywall and trim repair, painting and finish work. While they were there and doing such a good job, we had a door replaced. We discovered water damage caused by undetected leaks. This lead to a complete replacement of the cedar shake siding, window and door flashing replacement and exterior painting. All with a hurricane breathing down our necks. The work was completed in a very short window and was done at a high quality level. We are hoping to have the firm back to do other exterior work in the off season."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.

Whether you need a drywall anchor depends on the specifics of your project, particularly what you're hanging and where. You do not need a drywall anchor if you can screw or nail the object directly into a wooden stud, as the wood provides sufficient support and stability. However, if there are no studs in the location where you plan to hang the item, you should use drywall anchors to ensure it is securely supported. For very lightweight objects, like small pictures, adhesive picture hanging strips can be a suitable alternative to anchors.

Pros ensure smooth finishes and lasting repairs, avoiding visible patches.

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.

Plaster is a pretty tough surface, but it can still sustain damage from things like bumping against it, water issues, dampness, extreme humidity changes, and plain old age. Most plaster walls last hundreds of years and will only be taken down to the base layer when major repairs are required. Being cautious around the wall, not placing furniture against it, and ensuring stable humidity are all great ways to reduce possible damage.
