WE RECEIVED A WONDERFUL JOB. THE OWNER, AL, WAS ON THE JOB FROM THE FIRST DAY. THEY ARRIVED ON TIME EVERY DAY & WERE VERY PROFESSIONAL. THEY DID EXACTLY WHAT THEY PROMISED.  THE CREW TOOK OFF A FEW DAYS BETWEEN COATS OF STUCCO TO LET IT DRY PROPERLY, BEFORE THE NEXT COAT. THEY EVEN CAME BACK TO MIST THE FIRST COAT EACH DAY, UNTIL IT WAS CURED.

WE HAD THE JOB DONE ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO AND IT IS STILL PERFECT. THERE HAS BEEN NO FADING AND THERE ARE NO CRACKS ANYWHERE. IT STILL LOOKS LIKE THE DAY THEY FINISHED.

THEY ALSO DID SOME DRYWALL REPAIRS UNDER THE OVERHANGS AND PATIO COVER. PERFECT JOB. THEY REPAINTED THE REPAIRED AREAS AND THE TRANSITION LINES BETWEEN THE NEW STUCCO AND THE NEW DRYWALL ARE PERFECT. I WISH I COULD PAINT THIS WELL .

THEY ALSO RESTUCCOED OUR EXTERIOR BLOCK FENCE. ANOTHER PERFECT JOB. WE ONLY HAD THEM DO A PORTION OF THE WALL, BUT WE WILL HAVE THEM BACK TO DO THE REST OF THE WALL.

I AM A REALTOR AND HAVE DONE REHABS FOR SEVERAL YEARS. I WISH ALL MY CONTRACTORS WERE AS GOOD AS BLU SKY NM DRYWALL & STUCCO.

I WILL DEFINATELY USE THEM AGAIN. I GIVE THEM AN AAA+.

YOU CAN TRUST THEM TO DO WHAT THEY SAY AND SHOW UP WHEN THEY SAY THEY WILL. YOU WILL BE HAPPY WITH THE BEAUTIFUL JOB THEY DO.

"It was a shaky start with some unforeseen obstacles. However, after things settled down Bill got to work and met the deadline that I had originally set. The paint came out great. I needed 2 living rooms and a dining room painted, along with the ceilings in each room. They were able to complete everything in the timeframe given, even after my wife changed her mind on the one of the walls that had already been painted. I had movers coming the next day and Bill even offered to come back the day after the movers to fix any scuffs or scratches that occurred. If you are looking for a great finished paint job hire Bill."

"The technician arrived promptly.  We walked through the house to look at what was to be done, and I provided him with a written list (which I never saw again). The actual patching was very well done, but the texturing on about half the patches was not very good. I felt the need to remind the technician about some of the patches, and I had to touch up about three of the deeper patches later. Cleanup was reasonably well done with a broom and dustpan, except for one of the patches where there were bits of old drywall left on the floor. After I vacuumed, all was again in order.  I had the feeling that the quality of cosmetic work became lower as time went on.
In summary, the structural part of the patches was very well done, but the cosmetic part of the job was not.

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

Certain drywall textures, like sand and sometimes popcorn, can be smoothed by applying skim coats, sanding the walls, or chipping away the texture. However, it’s worth considering removing the texture and starting with a blank canvas. Smoothing textured walls requires a lot of sandpaper and elbow grease and can take longer than just outright removing the texture.

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.

There is no way to cut drywall without making dust, but you can reduce the amount of dust and especially the dangerous airborne particles by using manual cutting tools. Using a utility knife to score and snap your drywall will minimize dust production, and a jab saw for cutting cutouts for boxes and fixtures will generate almost no airborne dust. Even if you use these methods, you should still wear a respirator and safety goggles to avoid damage to your lungs and eyes.

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.
