"I had put a conversion in from a tub to a walk in shower. But I needed professional help to do the drywall around the top, and the sides he came in. And gave me an excellent price. And did the work in a very short period of time period the work was done professionally. And he cleaned up well after his south. He had all the material he needed to do. The job with him and was very efficient. And very pleasant, I would highly recommend his company for any small job, including drywall, or other necessities around a home. Dan Greenfield"

"Roof: fixed on the first try. Exactly what you want from a roof repair! The price was right. They did the work immediately despite their schedule. More rain was due and they were sensitive to that. I can’t tell you how much it was appreciated! Painting: this house had severe nicotine staining and urine smell. They knew the correct products to use to neutralize it all, making my little house feel nearly new. After decades of neglect by previous owners, I now feel as though I have a toe-hold on bringing this house up-to-date and making a home out of the cesspit it was. Hope is a funny thing. Their ingenuity and knowledge, their creativity and skill restored my hope not just in my dreams for this house but in people. We spoke at length about all I’d like to see happen to bring this house up from the grave. I’m confident these are the people to call to make that come to fruition. Fair prices, strong work ethic, strong multi-level skill set, flexible, intelligent. Don’t call anyone else but All Fixed Up."

In most cases, plaster repair will improve your home’s energy efficiency because a solid barrier of the insulative material helps keep conditioned air inside your home. Major plaster repair jobs like repairing large cracks or crumbling sections of plaster or applying a skim coat might make a noticeable difference in your heating and cooling bills. Not only can plaster repairs improve efficiency, but they can also reduce strain on your HVAC equipment, potentially saving you money on maintenance and repairs.
Whether you need drywall anchors depends on your specific project, particularly where you are hanging an item. Drywall anchors are not necessary if you can drive a screw directly into a wooden stud behind the wall, as the stud provides sufficient support. However, since studs are not present everywhere in a wall, you will need to use drywall anchors if you are hanging an object in a location without a stud. For very lightweight items, picture hanging strips can also be a suitable alternative.
While not always necessary, you can glue a drywall ceiling in addition to using screws or nails. Drywall is typically secured to ceiling joists with fasteners, which is often sufficient. However, adding construction adhesive can offer benefits like preventing sagging, bridging gaps, and reducing air leaks for better energy efficiency. It may also be used for specific acoustic or insulation needs. On the other hand, many professionals advise against it because properly placed screws make the drywall structural, glue doesn't add strength, and it makes future repairs or replacements significantly more difficult. Ultimately, it's best to follow local building codes and project-specific requirements to decide if adhesive is right for your ceiling.
Yes, professionals often repair minor wall openings made for insulation injection to restore the surface.
Whether a drywall anchor can be reused depends on its material, type, and the method of removal. Plastic anchors, including expansion and self-drilling types, are generally designed for single use as they tend to break or deform upon removal. Metal anchors, such as toggle bolts, are more durable and may be reusable if they are not damaged during extraction. However, with toggle bolts, the toggle piece can fall into the wall cavity when the bolt is removed, making it difficult to retrieve. If an anchor is damaged during removal, for instance by having its head cut off, it cannot be reused regardless of the material.
