"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."

"Very responsive. High quality work from Marcus. Only issue was the date of the work - used them for two projects, and both times the execution date was pushed 1-3 days from what was originally communicated."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

If you plan on heating your garage, you must install a vapor barrier when drywalling the garage. A vapor barrier protects your garage from frost and mold that can occur through condensation. If your garage is unheated, you don't need to install a vapor barrier. The only exception is if you regularly crank the heat in your car before getting in it. In this case, you may still want to install a vapor barrier, as your car can heat your garage.

Water-damaged drywall should almost always be replaced. Not only does it look bad, it’s a breeding ground for toxic mold. Even if you think the area is dry and there’s no active leak, the only way to be sure is to cut out the damaged area and see for yourself.

Look for flaking paint or air bubbles that burst and then flake away. Paint will begin to flake after being exposed to minimal moisture or water, so it’s a good indicator of any water damage. If you notice your paint starting to flake, feel the plaster underneath to see if it is soft or damp.

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.

Mudding drywall is a DIY-friendly project, but patience and practice are required for perfection. If you’re working in a highly visible area and want the best possible finish, hiring a professional drywaller is worth the cost. Pros have the tools and know-how to ensure a smooth surface with fewer sanding sessions and less cleanup.
