"I bought a Angie's List deal of Handyman Service for $79.  I will say up front that this was worth the money, although if I had been paying full price I might not say that.
I bought the deal and tried to schedule the service for April 7-9, but the first he had available at first was in early May.  Luckily, John had something come open April 23 at 10.  In the back and forth with respect to scheduling, John was prompt in getting back to me.
On April 23, he did not show up at 10.  I realize that workmen frequently have little control over their time when they are on a job. When things go wrong which turn a 20 minute job into 2 hours, they cannot simply leave because the time is up, so I understand tardiness due to those kinds of situations.  By 11:30, I just wanted to get an ETA, so I called him.  I live northeast of Plano in Wylie, in Collin County.  He was half way to Waco.  He had my address and zip code, so I don't know where the confusion arose, although at that time Google Maps was having a problem finding my exact address. He had to turn around and drive in the opposite direction from which he had set out that morning.  It was almost 1 pm before he showed up.  It was not his fault that Google Maps couldn't tell him where to go, but I feel that he should have called me for directions when there was a question.  That is why I rated punctuality as D.
When he arrived, I explained that the first thing that we wanted was drywall repair.  We had a hole where an electric box had been, as well as 3 small cracks above a window and a doorway that appeared the summer we had the 42 days of 100+ heat.  Those areas also needed to be textured, as well as an area about 2&1/2 feet in diameter which had already been repaired.
At that point, he asked where the materials were, because according to the terms of the deal we had to provide our own materials.  I hadn't realized that--I am accustomed to workmen having the materials and charging me for them.  I thought that I had some drywall repair in the garage, but I didn't.  I didn't have the texture for sure.  It was my fault for not reading all of the details, but it might have been nice had he mentioned it when the final date for the work was confirmed.
So, while my husband ran out to Home Depot, with a shopping list, John started by doing some caulking in my bathroom (which I did have the materials for).  When my husband returned, John patched the areas that needed patching, and then finished the caulking as well as doing a couple of other small jobs (I forget what) while the drywall repair dried.
Even though it should have set in 20 minutes, it was still very wet after 45 minutes, and could not be textured.  We asked if he could come back to finish the texturing and we would pay him for the extra time at normal rates.  He agreed.
When I contacted him around June 25 to find out when he could return to do the texturing, he indicated that he could come back May 5, after we wanted to get our house on the market.  I scheduled it, but my realtor called in a favor, so on June 26, I cancelled the May 5 appointment.   (In the end, we got a guy that does dry wall repair exclusively to texture, and he brought in a machine.  It was done before May 1, and the job that he is probably better than anything that could be accomplished with canned texture.)  
We did get the 2 hours of work that we paid for.  John was pleasant enough, but I think I would try someone else before I used him again.  (Although he does know how to get to my house now.)  If I had been given a choice of "Might use again," (rather than a Yes or No to the question would you use him again?), I would have chosen that.

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.

Glass walls are more expensive overall than their brick or drywall counterparts. However, if you need walls for a building with more than two or three stories, glass walls are the more budget-friendly option.

Drying alone can take 1 to 4 hours to dry to the touch per plaster layer, but some types of plaster take several hours longer to dry. However, this doesn’t mean the job is done because plaster doesn’t fully harden until it cures, which can take a few days to a couple of weeks. It may take even longer if you’re building a new, pretty thick plaster wall. Allow the plaster to cure before painting it.

Plaster can be a difficult DIY to master, especially if you plan to plaster an entire room, rather than patch a small area. Before you begin a plaster DIY project, you need to know which tools and type of plaster to use. It's also important to know how to prepare the surface and apply the plaster for a smooth finish. If that all sounds like a lot of work, you may prefer hiring a local plaster repair contractor to do the job.

Most drywall used for interior walls of homes is 1/2-inch thick. This size strikes a balance of being easy to handle and hang while being thick enough for the durability needed on interior wall applications.
