"We got the Angie's list deal- $59 for 2 hours of handyman services. John came over and installed our wall oven.  We were not sure what it would entail at first, but he installed it and it works great. We need some drywall above the oven and

paint, but there wasn't enough time for him to do that, so he started working on the bathroom fixtures. He was great and worked fast. We are going to call him again for the paint and drywall work.

"He did a pretty good job overall. He made a terrible mess and at the end he could not find the can for the color of the paint he used on the walls. He did not find the receipt to find the color out so I could do touch ups and he never could find it. That was the only the bad part of what he did. His texture guy was great. That was probably the best thing about the whole deal. He had a really good texture guy who did the ceiling and did a great job. I would probably not use him again because of the paint thing that did not kind of feel professional. So now if I had to touch up my wall I have to take a hunk out of the wall and have it the color made from there and that’s going to be really irritating to me."

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.

This depends on how much plaster is applied and in how many layers, but a decent estimate is around 150 square feet. If you are applying only two coats on a small wall, there is a chance you may only need one or two gallons for the entire project. If you are plastering a large living room wall with high ceilings, using one of the more involved techniques–like Scagliola–that requires several coats, expect the project materials costs to add up quickly. 

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.

Costs range from $500 to $5,000, depending on damage size, labor, and finishing requirements.

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.
