"Quick to provide a quote, (same day), great price, (1 of 3 quotes), Scheduled the job when I needed it. Showed up early with a great crew and hung my 30ft x 60ft, 10 ft ceiling in a day, plastered the next. So glad I went with the blueboard and plaster. A little bit more expensive due to more labor but way better quality,mold resistance and longevity over drywall Nick is an old school, 2nd generation pro with a great work ethic and turns out quality work Recommendation without hesitation"

"We hired EDG Construction to repair a bathroom wall and patch some areas in the garage. They did a great job, especially fixing peeling and cracked areas in the bathroom—it looks smooth and clean now. They were professional, on time, and easy to communicate with. The husband-and-wife team is very kind and pleasant to work with. Highly recommend!"

"Excellent professionalism! Very skilled, but willing to do many different “handy tasks” like curtain rods and hanging pictures. He easily put together small furniture from Amazon, but also does cabinetry, drywall, etc. I highly recommend Blake cleancut services!!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The best way to make long, straight cuts is to use a utility knife and a T-square to score the sheet, snap along the score, and then finish the cut by cutting through the paper on the opposite side with the utility knife. If you’re making small cuts, curved cuts, or cutouts for electrical boxes or light fixtures, you can use a manual jab saw to keep costs down, but an electric spiral saw or oscillating multi-tool will get the cleanest, fastest cuts possible.

Fixing ceiling nail pops involves similar steps to wall repair, with the major difference being the orientation of the work. Ceiling nail pops can be more challenging because you may need to work overhead, which can be physically demanding and require additional safety precautions. Additionally, the ceiling may have different materials or finishes, such as textured surfaces, which can affect the repair process. Otherwise, the fundamental steps are the same.

A jigsaw is commonly used to cut holes in drywall. It offers versatility and precision, making it suitable for creating circular or irregular openings. When equipped with the right blade, a jigsaw can swiftly and cleanly cut through drywall, making it a good choice for DIY projects.

While it’s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.

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.
