"I would hire Victor again in a heartbeat. Nicely done and great attention to detail. The original work involved patching and painting a patio and painting intricate entryway gate and window grates, all of which he did perfectly. I was so pleased, I had Victor tackle some stone masonry on our patio pillars. Likewise, his work was perfect."

"I have used RMN 3 times and each time i come away saying “this guy gets the job DONE”. RMN came in and saved us weeks of frustration over our last painter when he arrived on site with all the guys that he said he was going to arrive with, and all the materials ready to go. RMN has never ever given me an excuse on why the project isn’t going how he said it was going to go. They have painted the exterior, interior, and several cabinet finishes. They have repaired drywall to where I could not tell that any damage had been done prior. I have the utmost confidence in Juan and would recommend you work with him as well. His team shows up on time and does the job cleanly with a fair price. RMN comes highly recommended!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Options include bricks, natural stone, and concrete blocks. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and budget.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.

With its breathability and flexibility, lime plaster is among the most durable of all plaster types. It's also fire-resistant and has a proven track record, as people have been using it for thousands of years.

However, all plaster types will last for many years with the right care and treatment. Proper preparation and installation will also help ensure your plaster walls look great for as long as possible.
