"Dan is wonderful! I had several small areas where I needed drywall repair and stomping done on my ceiling. Dan and his brother did a fantastic job. You can't even tell where the patch work was done! Blends with the rest of the ceiling. They also cleaned up after themselves. I would recommend them and use their service again. Thanks Dan!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Matthew did a fantastic job patching and painting multiple rooms in our home. A previous contractor took shortcuts which led to major wall issues. Matthew removed the poor work and patched and painted properly. The walls look brand new, he moved all the furniture, and he left zero mess. Additionally, we had a textured ceiling that needed significant repair. He added structural support before finishing the cosmetic work. Furthermore, because of my own scheduling issues I had to cut his time frame short and he was very flexible. I am a very critical person and I have absolutely no complaints about his work. I will not hesitate to use Matthew in the future."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Wall anchors are suitable for drywall and plaster walls, which are common in most homes. However, different wall materials may require specialized anchors. For concrete or masonry walls, you'd typically use concrete anchors. When dealing with other wall types, such as brick or tile, specific anchors designed for those materials may be necessary. Always consult with a hardware specialist or check the manufacturer's recommendations to ensure you select the appropriate anchors for your specific wall type.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

It’s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you’re referring to cracked, in which case that’s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it’s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage.

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.

The easiest way to remove texture from walls is the soak-and-scrape method. You’ll need to spray a section of the wall with water and let the water soak in and soften the texture. Then, you need to scrape the texture off using a drywall taping knife. This method works best with unpainted walls since paint prevents water from saturating the textured joint compound.
