"Highly Recommend Wal-Masters Drywall LLC Fast, Reliable, and Affordable! I had some drywall repairs needed after Hurricane Helene, and Wal-Masters Drywall LLC absolutely delivered. This husband-and-wife team showed up on time, worked quickly, and did an excellent job. What another company quoted me $800 for and said would take 2–3 days, they completed in just about 1.5 hours using Quikset...with flawless results. Their work was clean, professional, and fairly priced. If you’re looking for drywall repair in Asheville or the surrounding area, I can’t recommend them enough. Honest, hard-working, and skilled...exactly the kind of small business worth supporting!"

"I hired this company because they were local and the customer service was excellent! We had flooding damage to the drywall on the first floor of our home after Hurricane Helene. The Mr. Handyman team was very kind and sympathetic to our needs. Tim, the lead technician, came out and provided us with an estimate on the spot, once we signed he began working right away! The job was able to be completed the same day and it looks fantastic! We truly appreciate all the hardworking folks at Mr. Handyman and we will absolutely be continuing to do business with them! We would (already have) recommended them to anyone in need of handyman services! Thank you!"

"Jesùs and his team are great workers. They work quickly and do a very professional job. The walls are smooth and they even did a primer coat so it was easier when we painted. They keep a clean work site and stay in contact about pricing and any questions. We have worked with this company more than once and even referred them to friends in our neighborhood. I would trust them to do work in our home anytime. They have done framing, trim carpentry, and installation of doors and rails as well as painting and drywall work."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can technically just paint over hairline cracks in plaster since these cracks are often harmless, but this will mostly be a waste of paint. Paint will only hide the hairline crack for a few months before it shows up again. The best solution is to repair the crack with flexible filler or joint compound before repainting.

The best tool for skim coating drywall is a skim coating blade, which can smooth out joint compound in wide stretches. While you could use a smaller drywall knife for skim coating, the smaller size means it’ll take longer to smooth out each section. Instead, consider investing in a skim coating blade for the quickest application.

Whether to repair or replace water-damaged plaster depends on the scale of the damage. For small, limited areas, you can often perform a repair yourself. If you choose to paint over small patches, ensure the surface is completely dry and apply a coat of antifungal primer first to prevent mold growth. However, simply painting or plastering over the damage is only a temporary solution that doesn't address the core problem. For more extensive or long-term damage, the plaster may be compromised, and there is a risk of mold. In these cases, it is recommended to remove the damaged section of plasterboard and replace it. You may consider hiring a professional for the repair, and it's worth noting that water damage is often covered by home insurance.

Beadboard is a decorative element and lacks the structural integrity of drywall. It cannot hold much weight and is not meant to be used as an insulator or moisture barrier, like drywall is. In almost all cases, beadboard is placed over an existing wall surface which, in modern days, is usually drywall, but decades ago could have been wood paneling.

Yes, you can hammer a nail into a wall stud. But before you do, it’s important to confirm that you’re actually nailing into a stud—and not wiring, pipes, or ductwork. To check, find a few more studs in the wall, then measure to make sure they’re either 16 or 24 inches apart.
