"I can’t say enough good things about MCE Construction! They recently assembled a swing set for my daughter, and their team was nothing short of amazing. Not only were they incredibly friendly and easy to work with, but their work ethic was truly impressive. On the first day, they showed up ready to go, even as the weather turned from light rain to full-on thunder and lightning. Despite my best efforts to convince them to get warm and dry, they pushed through, determined to get as much done as possible. Eventually, they did head out for safety, but they were back early the next morning and didn’t stop until the entire swing set was perfectly assembled. Their dedication and commitment to quality work, even under tough conditions, really stood out. I’m incredibly grateful for their hard work and professionalism, and I’ll definitely be using MCE Construction again for future projects. Highly recommend"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

It doesn’t matter which way you lay drywall, and you can choose to install it horizontally or vertically depending on the size of the wall and how tall the ceiling is. It’s easier to lay drywall sheets vertically if you have a taller ceiling, but laying sheets horizontally makes it easier to apply joint compound.

The age of your home can clue you in to whether you have plaster or drywall ceilings. Homes built after the ‘70s are more likely to have drywall ceilings and walls, while older homes have plaster. You can also do the pushpin test: A pushpin will go into drywall, whereas it’s much harder to push one into a plaster wall. If you’re still unsure, ask a drywall professional to let you know which type of ceilings and walls you have.

Some painters will repair minor drywall damage. For repair work of any kind, it’s a good idea to hire the professional required for the job. Many painters will have the materials on hand and can add them to the total cost. While you may save some money, there is a chance the work will be subpar compared to a professional who specializes in drywall.

Which style of corner bead you choose—whether metal or paper-faced—depends on your preference and if you’re comfortable using metal-cutting tools and a hammer. Metal bead offers superior strength and durability but its installation is slightly more involved. We’d say for most cases, it’s better to use metal bead but if you’re not comfortable working with metal, paper-faced bead will work just fine. 

You can technically just paint over hairline cracks in plaster since these cracks are often harmless, but this will mostly be a waste of paint. Paint will only hide the hairline crack for a few months before it shows up again. The best solution is to repair the crack with flexible filler or joint compound before repainting.
