"Jim did a totally professional job on my drywall project; the taping and paint job were excellent. Jim is from the "old school" where quality, reliability and performance take priority. He brought drop cloths and a vacuum; one couldn't tell that a wall was ever torn down, taped and repainted. By the way, his norm is putting on 2 coats of paint. Furniture and pictures were put back into place. While waiting for the sparkle to dry (on the numerous coats put on), he re-screened one of our patio doors. He was on time and even texted me that he was on his way with an ETA, which he kept. His pricing was fair and reasonable. I highly recommend Jim Lavin for any handyman project you have. Thanks for a job well done!!!"

"I had a great experience with NB Woodworks after a frozen pipe burst damaged my bathroom and dining room. Anthony responded quickly to my inquiry and scheduled a visit right away. His trustworthiness was apparent with his estimate and clear communication throughout the process. Overall, he was responsive and maintained a clean workspace. Even though it was a small job, he completed it along with his team with exceptional skill! I would highly recommend NB Woodworks."

"We were very pleased with the entire re-roofing project completed by Coastal Construction & Contracting Services LLC. Frank, the owner, worked closely with us throughout, being thorough in his initial assessment in measurements of the roof, ordering roofing materials, explaining the process, etc. Because our existing roof underwent storm/wind damage, Frank even helped coordinate with our insurance company's adjuster, who also inspected the roof. We found Frank's proposal to be quite fair as compared to that of other contractors with whom we had consulted. Roofing materials were ordered and delivered as scheduled and the project was begun on time. Under Frank's supervision, it was completed in a timely manner. The work crew performed in a conscientious, professional manner. We found them to be on time and reliable. The entire area was thoroughly cleaned up upon completion of their work. Based upon our very positive experience, we would wholeheartedly recommend Coastal Construction & Contracting Services to our friends and neighbors. In fact, they had previously completed work on the house directly across the street from ours, and we would think that several of our neighbors will be interested in utilizing their services as well."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

A common cause of separation between a wall and the ceiling is truss lift—this can happen to the ceiling of rooms directly under the attic when the seasons change and wood building materials dry out, shrink, and shift. Roof trusses often dry out at different speeds, and if the bottom pieces dry out faster than the top pieces, they can shrink and pull the attached drywall away from ceilings and walls, causing cracks. Fortunately, truss lift is only a cosmetic problem, not a structural problem, and you can fix it by separating the ceiling drywall from the roof trusses, and patching the cracks.

Yes, it is possible to rewire a house without removing the drywall, but this doesn’t work in all homes. You can pull out old wires and insert new ones if you have access to the wiring system via the ceiling or through a crawl space. Some pros can also use a magnetic kit to fish the old wire out of the wall through a hole cavity and install the new wires. Just keep in mind that doing this is less stable than removing drywall, as you won’t be able to staple the wires into the framing.

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.

Depending on the place where the cutting error occurred, you may be able to fix it. Learning how to patch a hole in drywall is challenging, but if you can tape and mud drywall, you can do it. Having said that, patching is time consuming. Early in the installation process, you may find that it’s easier and far less time consuming to just start over with a new sheet of drywall, cutting a new hole in the right spot. You may be able to use part of the incorrectly cut piece elsewhere, so it’s not completely wasted.
