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

The easiest way to cut holes in drywall for electrical boxes is to use a spiral saw with a drywall router bit. Hang the drywall without cutting out a hole for the box, but make sure you measure and mark where the box is located on the wall. Once you screw in the drywall sheet, drill a small hole into the box void, insert the spiral saw bit, and move it around the edge of the box using the inside wall as a guide. You can also use an oscillating multi-tool with an electrical box cutout for fast, professional results.

Plaster itself has a higher R-value than drywall. However, there are other considerations surrounding plaster and insulation. As a general rule, it's easier to obtain consistency in insulating value and quality when working with drywall rather than plaster. Plaster walls often don't contain any insulation behind the wall covering by design, and careful evaluation is necessary when choosing to add it.

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.

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.

The cost to skim coat drywall is $1.15 to $1.35 per square foot. Most of the cost is labor, for the necessary skills to apply the skim coat with precision using high-quality tools. This is a job better left to the professionals for the best outcomes.
