"This was our first time using Cary and Restoration Services. Theyâ re on time and let you know if theyâ re running late. They arrive daily until the work is done. They clean up after each day. And you honestly never know what kind of quality of work youâ re going to get unless you hear it from someone you know. All the jobs we had for them were restoring our walls back to their original state after water damage. Our walls were done expertly â ¦ there was not one thing I would have them redo. I almost feel like the walls were better after they fixed them than before the damage occurred. . We could not have hoped for a better end result and would highly recommend them."

Customers say: Quality work

"It was a pleasure to work with both Philip and his wife Asia. I had a ceiling repair that had been attempted by another company years prior, leaving me ready to tear out my entire ceiling. Philip and Asia assured me they could save me the expense, by removing only a small portion and matching the existing texture. Well, Iâ  m thrilled to say Philip did as he promised! He also was able to move lightening that was misplaced by the builder/ electrician when the house was built in 1997, matching the texture perfectly. Plans have been made to have 7 Pneuma back for a basement project."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

There shouldn’t be any gaps between your walls and ceiling. These can be fixed with joint compound but that is only a fix, and it’s much better if your drywall fits correctly in the first place. Sometimes gaps can appear if your foundation shifts significantly but if this is the case, you have a much bigger problem than patching drywall.

While every home has its own unique needs, ceiling drywall installation typically follows a staggered or stepped pattern to enhance structural integrity and reduce the visibility of seams. Starting from one corner, sheets are placed perpendicular to the ceiling joists, with the ends of adjacent sheets meeting along the center of the joist. The next row begins with a half sheet, ensuring joints don't align vertically. This alternating pattern, combined with proper taping and mudding, creates a seamless appearance and strengthens the ceiling structure, minimizing the risk of cracks over time.

Drywall mudding can be done in one day if the project is small and the desired effect isn’t too complex. If you need multiple layers of mud, one day may not be realistic. But a single room that requires little more than joint compound on the seams and screws can be done in a day or two.

A jigsaw is commonly used to cut holes in drywall. It offers versatility and precision, making it suitable for creating circular or irregular openings. When equipped with the right blade, a jigsaw can swiftly and cleanly cut through drywall, making it a good choice for DIY projects.

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.
