"Price was by far the best price in the area. The crew was great to deal with and went above and beyond (even cleaned the gutters and fixed some shingles "since we are up there anyway". They worked around a tough schedule with weather and fit in as much time as they could each day and still made it in the quoted deadline with several days of rain. Palmers drywall and paining is the prime example of why people should use smaller local companies with around the house projects and not have to worry about being out priced. I recommend them to anyone looking for painting work done. I will absolutely use them for the next project I have."

"We needed repairs and updates in all but one room of our main floor.  When Chris Means came to give us an estimate, he was polite and took the time to measure and ask questions.  Throughout the process, he was quick to communicate and involved in making sure that the job was done to our satisfaction.  It seemed important to all of the workers that we were satisfied with the work.  We were asked repeatedly to check everything out and make a list of anything that needed attention.  The problems that we pointed out were minor and were addressed with a great attitude.  At the end of each work day, everything was cleaned up and only with my permission were tools, etc., left in the garage or house.  The project was done in December, and we were expecting a good bit of company for Christmas.  During the week before Christmas, we asked that the living room be finished a bit earlier than they had scheduled, and Chris sent a crew over to work an extra afternoon.  I was thrilled that they cleaned up the room and put the furniture back so we could hang curtains and put up our Christmas tree that evening.  The company tries to be out of a house by 5 p.m., and, while they usually finished by 3:30, the stayed until about 6:30 on the last two days prior to Christmas so we could have the house presentable for our family.  All of the guys were polite and considerate, and I had no misgivings about leaving them in the house working when we were not home.  In fact, we had to be away overnight during the job, and we gave them a key so they could continue to work while we were gone. 
Anyone who is having walls patched, repaired, and painted should be aware that the sanding will leave everything covered in a fine white dust.  By All Means and More worked to clean that up, including wiping the floors on hands and knees.  The plastic they covered furniture and surfaces with helped, but in order to have our home ready for the Holidays, we did still do a good bit of cleaning. 
Overall, we are very pleased with the work done and found the crew to be professional and polite.  We would call them again."

"Jodie Machen is an outstanding workman and job manager. Our home is a old steel-baron era mansion from 1929. It needed a new roof and significant association flashing work. Jodie Machen was the perfectionist I was looking for. Not only did he do an immensely careful job, but he was thorough in his communication with me throughout, calling to touch base not just on formal aspects of the job, but also on convenience questions. His personal presence on the job made sure that his standards translated to his work crew, and together they presented a polite and professional group who I felt very happy to have around my little kids. I would unhesitatingly recommend this company! As an aside, Jodie Machen also fixed a difficult plumbing problem for us, so I suppose he would be great for other similar work as well!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

If you only have tiny holes in your drywall (for example, dents or nail marks), you probably won’t need a patch kit. Instead, you can plug the hole with a small amount of spackle. Once the spackle dries, you can sand the area and paint over it—just like you would in the steps outlined above.

It is more difficult to drywall a ceiling than it is to drywall a wall, but not so hard that DIYers can’t tackle it. One of the main issues with hanging drywall on your ceiling is getting it into place. Drywall isn’t light so, if you are hanging full drywall panels, you will need at least two (it’s better with more) people to hold the panel while you drill it into the ceiling as a single piece can weigh between 40 and 60 pounds and will need to be held in place for up to 10 minutes.

Your walls are likely cracking due to fluctuations in the temperature outside. Drywall tends to expand and contract when temperatures and humidity levels change, and this repeated movement can lead to cracks in your walls, particularly around door frames. If you have multiple diagonal cracks, you may want to have your foundation inspected, as cracks can also be a sign of a bigger issue.

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.

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.
