We have been at this business since January of 2017. We have seen and learned a lot over the years the one thing that we always are reminded of is if you put out a good product and make a customer happy that customer will tell people and the rest is just obvious. In today's world we do realize that if you make a customer upset, they will not tell their neighbor they will tell 2000 people on Facebook or some other social website. With that being said we focus on customer service and making each and every customer happy with the hard-earned money they spent to make their home updated and more efficient to them. Keep in mind truth be told our main business is renovating a home to have it sold. But one thing always is true weather you are dealing with a $300,000.00 home or a $50,000.00 home you want to put the same business ethic and pride in your job. We just need one chance to earn your trust then we will earn your loyalty after that.

"This contractor was very honest and fair, he also make some really good suggestions that in the long run probably saved me money. I was really very satisfied and would highly recommend them."

"Matt and his crew of Jacob and Christian went far above anything I expected. I called Matt on Saturday afternoon because my sump pump broke and basement had water everywhere. Within 5 minutes of submitting request for a quote he called. Within 30 minutes he was here assessing. Within an hour he had dryers and dehumidifiers set up. He called to check in on Sunday and was here Monday morning. Tuesday morning Jacob and Christian arrived and emptied everything that was damaged by water (and more). They filled a giant dump truck. They were so polite and careful. Right down to the sweeping! I felt like I was dealing with service the way it was years ago. I could not have asked for anything more."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

To hide drywall edges, you need to properly apply drywall tape and multiple layers of joint compound. These materials hide the seams between drywall sheets and fill the holes from drywall screws, leaving behind a smooth, flat finish to paint over. Apply joint compound smoothly, and finish the job by sanding the walls to make sure you fully hide drywall edges and other imperfections.

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.

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.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

There are several things you should not do when installing drywall. Common mistakes include: adding too many screws, over-sanding, not adding backing support, and installing drywall unevenly. You also should avoid screwing into the same place twice, installing Sheetrock with tapered edges on the outside, and making too many joints.
