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."

"Contractor keep appointment (even though there were 2 or 3 calls expressing confusion about time and day); installed the drywall and cleaned the area.   The drywall installation was not smooth and when textured looked amateurish at best.  Before I could paint I had to sand several areas and apply canned texture-not the most professional look but time was a factor.  the next time the wall is painted will require extensive prep work to make it look professional.
Good things: appointment keep; work was done as explained; no extra charges.
Not so good: Technician was not a drywall guy.

"Henry and his crew were wonderful - professional, punctual, pleasant and hard workers.  My husband designed and framed a fireplace/TV combo area in our kitchen.  He got a recommendation for HMR Contracting from a builder in town when we saw a showcase home.  Henry came by and got an idea of what the job would entail, provided an estimate, and brought his two man crew over to do the drywall over the framing/mantel my husband installed.  It took them about 2 1/2 days and they did a beautiful job for a very reasonable price.  They were all very nice and went above and beyond what they were asked to do - they provided design suggestions that we hadn't thought of.  We'd definitely use Henry in the future for drywall work.  We discovered he also does interior and exterior painting and insulation and hope to be able to call him again.

"Well, the first time the replacement was ordered it was the wrong one, which of course, delayed the installation a week. When it was finally installed I had to pay an additional $850 for code upgrades. This I was not informed of by Home Shield. Then we noticed that there was water on the garage floor and found that the pipe coming in from the wall was leaking at the wall so had to call the plumbing company back out to fix it. They first tried to say it was not their fault but since there wasn't a leak before they installed they did fix it. I have used Home Shield a few times before and never had a problem. Some of the companies they use are not the best so you have to research them before you commit. I have found HS service to be good if you do your homework. At the end of the day I was without hot water for almost 3 weeks but it was do to the plumbing company they sent out."

"Painting was flawlessly executed. There was a seamless transition from wall to ceiling, almost to calculated precision. Not to mention the team was personable and extremely professional. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to a business partner or personal friend."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can paint over plaster, but repair any damage to the plaster first, or the paint will crack and bubble. You should also prepare the surface of the plaster to accept paint, which gives your paint job the best chance of looking good and lasting a long time. Before applying the color you want, apply a coat or two of primer. Additionally, use latex paint, and choose a latex paint with a satin finish for areas with dampness, like bathrooms.

If the holes in the plaster are small, you can fill them with layers of patching plaster until they’re filled. After it dries, you can sand the plaster and paint over it. If the hole is much larger, consider using bonding plaster first and then a layer of patching plaster, completing the process with sanding and a layer of paint.

Costs depend on labor, material quality, wall preparation, and finishing requirements.

A nail in drywall cannot hold very much—usually only a few pounds. A nail in a stud can add support and hold around 20 pounds. If you are trying to hang something heavier, get some help from drywall anchors—toggle bolts are very strong and able to withstand more weight.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.
