"First off Fabio was extremely fast returning my message. He was able to start within a few days and together we worked around my busy schedule. Extremely friendly and personable. Showed up on time everyday and finished on time which was very important considering the urgency I needed in getting my baby's nursery completed. He was flexible on pricing. 2 minor issues were clean up and finish. Cleanup could have been more thorough but since my kitchen was being renovated at the same time only a few feet away everything was in need of a cleaning so I didn't ask him for a better clean up. Although if I did I would not have a doubt in my mind he would have been happy to oblige. The finish. There were a few spots that needed to be sanded further. Also, I needed to add just a little more spackle around 2, maybe 3, outlets. I have some experience with that so I just finished it myself. In Fabios defense he said if I noticed any imperfections after final inspections to simply call him and he would come out immediately, but I simply took it upon myself to fix. I would easily and confidently recommend him to my family or friends and would myself use him again in the future if needed.

"We hired Heartland Village General Contracting and Handyman Services to execute a full, top-to-bottom renovation of our bathroom at the beginning of March of 2026. This was a major project involving demolition , new flooring, updated electrical and plumbing to accommodate a new layout of the bathroom. The company manager/owner, Harvey, was excellent. He provided a detailed project schedule before work began and proactively communicated every step of the way. The quality of the final product exceeded our expectations. Harvey's attention to detail truly made the difference."

"We had a great experience working with Jeff on a project repairing drywall to the ceiling in our bathroom. Jeff was friendly, communicative, and did a great job on refinishing the ceiling and updating our vent and adding new overhead lights in the shower! We would absolutely recommend his services and look forward to working with him again!"

"Just go with Jonas and FIVE STAR PAINTING. Hands down the best and most professional experience. I rarely write reviews, either positive or negative; but I am compelled to do so here. As soon as I submitted my request on Angie’s List for information on removing the popcorn ceiling and painting my entire house, my phone rang, and it was Jonas…he was the first!! I was immediately impressed with his tone, professionalism, and approach to working with me. Throughout this entire project, from the initial consultation to the finished product, I felt Jonas and his crew cared about me and the results right up until I gladly made the final payment. And when I say gladly…I mean it. He was very competitive with his pricing…. VERY! Competitive!! As a first-time homeowner, I had no idea what to expect. So many question…. who do you trust…. are they going to be good…. will they complete the project in a timely fashion. They knocked it out of the park. Jonas not only walked me through every step, but he also made many suggestions (big and small) that confirmed my belief in him and his crew. He took my vision and made it reality. His team was early every day, stayed late when needed, and busted out a pretty big project in a timely manner. RUN…don’t walk to Jonas and Five Star Painting…. you won’t regret it."

Small jobs welcome

"Work required repair and sanding settlement cracks and seam tape failures in quite a few areas of our home. In addition the work also required paint matching the existing walls and ceiling color which I thought would almost be impossible. Somehow after trying a few sources Sam came up with a perfect match that blended completely with all the areas surrounding the repairs. We are completely happy with the workmanship, the employees and best of all the competive pricing of the project. Sam is the man for any future work we might require."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

There shouldn’t be any gaps between your walls and ceiling. These can be fixed with joint compound but that is only a fix, and it’s much better if your drywall fits correctly in the first place. Sometimes gaps can appear if your foundation shifts significantly but if this is the case, you have a much bigger problem than patching drywall.

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.

How you hang the drywall can affect the finishing process. It's often easier to finish horizontal drywall panels, as the seams run across the wall rather than up and down. Standard drywall panels are 48 inches wide, so the seam is easy to reach without bending down or stretching your arms.

While not always necessary, you can glue a drywall ceiling in addition to using screws or nails. Drywall is typically secured to ceiling joists with fasteners, which is often sufficient. However, adding construction adhesive can offer benefits like preventing sagging, bridging gaps, and reducing air leaks for better energy efficiency. It may also be used for specific acoustic or insulation needs. On the other hand, many professionals advise against it because properly placed screws make the drywall structural, glue doesn't add strength, and it makes future repairs or replacements significantly more difficult. Ultimately, it's best to follow local building codes and project-specific requirements to decide if adhesive is right for your ceiling.

Plaster can be a difficult DIY to master, especially if you plan to plaster an entire room, rather than patch a small area. Before you begin a plaster DIY project, you need to know which tools and type of plaster to use. It's also important to know how to prepare the surface and apply the plaster for a smooth finish. If that all sounds like a lot of work, you may prefer hiring a local plaster repair contractor to do the job.
