"James is a particular guy and all his work is clean and top notch. He will bend over backwards to make sure everything is done right. He has done welding, painting, bathroom commode installs, shelving, laid a wood floor and lawn maintenance. A pipe broke with my sewage system and he and his crew even got that repaired too. I am always pleased with his work and have hired his services for over 32 years. I recommend James to my colleagues and associates and professional peers."

"Sheri is very personable and professional, and gave me an estimate for a paint job and a guarantee that she could have it done by a certain deadline (which she did). She removed wallpaper from several walls, textured, and she and her crew repainted most of our new 2400 SF house. They did have a delay getting out on the first day - which she called me to let me know - but they still managed to get the whole house painted before the move date. Due to a miscommunication one closet was painted the wrong color (which we let slide because it just matched the room instead of being white, no biggie) but other than that we were completely pleased with both the experience and the quality of work we received.
Unfortunately, I did call again (twice) for more work while she was running her Angie's List Special, and didn't receive a call back - possibly because she was swamped with other jobs at the time.

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Most handy homeowners can tackle removing texture from unpainted walls. Removing texture from painted walls is a bit trickier. Paint acts as a sealant, so you can’t soften the texture with water. Instead, you’ll have to add a layer of drywall compound known as a skim coat. This process is messy and takes some practice.

How you hang the drywall can affect the finishing process. It's often easier to finish horizontal drywall panels, as the seams run across the wall rather than up and down. Standard drywall panels are 48 inches wide, so the seam is easy to reach without bending down or stretching your arms.

You should leave a gap between drywall sheets because they naturally expand and contract along with the building framing as temperature and humidity change. Most pro drywall installers leave a gap of about ⅛ inch between drywall sheets, allowing the sheets to expand, contract, and shift without cracking or becoming damaged. If you don’t leave enough gaps between slabs, the edges will press against each other when they expand, and the pressure can cause visible cracks.

The cost to skim coat drywall is $1.15 to $1.35 per square foot. Most of the cost is labor, for the necessary skills to apply the skim coat with precision using high-quality tools. This is a job better left to the professionals for the best outcomes.

Regular dusting, occasional repainting, and avoiding harsh scrubbing preserve the finish.
