"Absolute Home Solutions was the only contractor to respond to my request for bids on the job. They were quick to return my call and delivered a detailed estimate in a very timely manner. We agreed to terms, schedule and cost and formalized a contract and Absolute started the job within the week. Job was completed in the estimated time frame and met our expectations for quality. Greg and Dawnelle were friendly and personable and quick to ask questions when they needed our input which was much appreciated. Though not always exactly on time arriving at the job site, they worked hard and kept the project right on schedule. Plan to use their services again when our next drywall job begins. Many thanks to Greg and Dawnelle. "
"Efram was professional and know what he doing and we are satisfied with his wonderful skills and Job done. But still my drywall need to be finished since he opened the wall to do his job And was told to request service for that. So far I am thankful"
"Called them to clean the air ducts of my 2-story house. This is a new house and when the builder installed the drywall, all the dust went to the air vents on the floor. The guys came on time (3 of them, one in training), cleaned all the air ducts, the air vents and returns (15 in total) plus the furnace. They did a very good job, were very friendly and professional. The complete work took about 2 hours. They gave me few tips of how to take good care of the system. Their price was very good compared with what others estimated on the phone."

Drywall anchors won’t work on plaster. Instead, they will more than likely cause more damage and pull out the plaster. The best type of anchors to use on plaster walls are the ones that will bite into the surrounding area, such as molly bolts and toggle bolts. Masonry anchors with expanders on the sides also work for lighter pictures.
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.
It’s highly recommended to use studs for a TV mount. The last thing you want is to be watching your favorite show when the TV falls off the wall. Studs are much stronger than drywall and quite a bit stronger than drywall anchors but, if you can’t find the studs or there simply aren’t any where you need them, you can use drywall anchors. It’s extremely important to make sure the anchors are rated for the load of the TV. We recommend using anchors that are rated far beyond the weight of whatever you’re hanging. Our suggestion is metal drywall toggle anchors.
Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.
Options include bricks, natural stone, and concrete blocks. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and budget.
