Q: What causes separation between a wall and ceiling?

• <div><p>A common cause of separation between a wall and the ceiling is truss lift&mdash;this can happen to the ceiling of rooms directly under the attic when the seasons change and wood building materials dry out, shrink, and shift. Roof trusses often dry out at different speeds, and if the bottom pieces dry out faster than the top pieces, they can shrink and pull the attached drywall away from ceilings and walls, causing cracks. Fortunately, truss lift is only a cosmetic problem, not a structural problem, and you can fix it by separating the ceiling drywall from the roof trusses, and patching the cracks.</p></div>

Q: Do painters repair drywall?

• <div><p>Some painters will repair minor drywall damage. For repair work of any kind, it&rsquo;s a good idea to hire the professional required for the job. Many painters will have the materials on hand and can add them to the total cost. While you may save some money, there is a chance the work will be subpar compared to a professional who specializes in drywall.</p></div>

Q: How do you fill bad plastering?

• <div><p>If the holes in the plaster are small, you can fill them with layers of patching plaster until they&rsquo;re filled. After it dries, you can sand the plaster and paint over it. If the hole is much larger, consider using bonding plaster first and then a layer of patching plaster, completing the process with sanding and a layer of paint. </p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between drywall tape and mesh?

• <div><p>Drywall tape is made of paper, while drywall mesh is made of fiberglass or metal. Drywall mesh patches are suitable for repairing small holes in drywall, while paper drywall tape holds a crease better for corners. You need joint compound to adhere drywall tape to the wall, while mesh patches may be self-adhesive.</p></div>
