"Benny and team did an excellent Job! They use top quality paint (Sherwin Williams) and give realistic estimates on what should and shouldn't be done. 2 of the rooms had an awful border in the middle of the walls that damaged them pretty badly, Benny was able to smooth everything out so you can't tell it was ever there. Overall a really fantastic experience! Highly recommend! I would use again!"

"Had a few patches in drywall that needed repairing due to a leak in my house. Heard from them almost immediately after putting in a request. Communication back-and-forth was fantastic. The work was done and completed neatly in a timely fashion. Everything done as I needed it to be. I would recommend 10 times out of 10 to anybody that needs some drywall work done."

"I contacted Red White and Blue Painting to paint my kitchen cabinets. Beginning with our initial meeting, I was impressed with Eric, the owner. He explained the entire process. Eric and his assistant, Rich, were amazing. They were punctual, friendly, and worked diligently. They left my kitchen clean, no paint drippings nor dust. Given their attention to detail, the labor intensity of the job, and quality of the work product, the price was definitely fair. OMG, my cabinets look fabulous! The paint job was flawless. Now my kitchen looks elegant and magazine worthy. Eric and Rich did an amazing job and exceeded my expectations. Without hesitation, I will hire Red White and Blue Painting again and refer them to everyone. Best contractor ever!"

"Harvey and his team did a wonderful bathroom renovation. It was a complete gut and overhaul of my bathroom. The team did tiling, flooring, new tub, new toilet, new sink, new plumbing and it looks amazing. This is the fourth or fifth project that Harvey and his team have completed for me and we are so satisfied. We will hire him again for future home projects. I highly recommend."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Drywall tape is made of paper, while drywall mesh is made of fiberglass or metal. Drywall mesh patches are suitable for repairing small holes in drywall, while paper drywall tape holds a crease better for corners. You need joint compound to adhere drywall tape to the wall, while mesh patches may be self-adhesive.

It’s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you’re referring to cracked, in which case that’s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it’s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage.

Drying alone can take 1 to 4 hours to dry to the touch per plaster layer, but some types of plaster take several hours longer to dry. However, this doesn’t mean the job is done because plaster doesn’t fully harden until it cures, which can take a few days to a couple of weeks. It may take even longer if you’re building a new, pretty thick plaster wall. Allow the plaster to cure before painting it.

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.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
