"I needed to have my roof replaced along with 5 skylights. Mid Valley Building provided a very detailed bid and the price came in at least a few thousand dollars under any other bids I received, this included the price of new skylights. Not only did they provide Excellent service, but the installation was done with honesty, integrity and professionalism. This company is family owned and displays wonderful ethics. They showed up on time with a great crew and completed the installation in two and a half days. Not only were they prompt, but they made sure to leave the areas around the house cleaned up every day. I chose Owens Corning Tru Def Duration Series roofing and was so very glad I did since I'm in a high wind and rain area. They were very courteous and a pleasure to have around. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone looking for honesty, integrity and professionalism in a contractor. I'm a very happy customer and for any other major construction or repairs to be done, they will be are my first call. In fact, they will be doing some door replacement and decking work for me in the near future. This was an awesome experience! Kudos to John, the family and crew!"

"Update: After several weeks they called back and agreed to go out and finish the work as originally agreed. They did a good job and actually painted more than we had agreed (I was going to finish but they painted everything). They did a good job and I really liked the finished product!

Original: This was a painter for a day special. I wanted the walls in a rental painted. The painter did a good job on the work he did, but he didn't follow my instructions & they haven't contact me despite several tries on my part (thus the low rating). When I came back to inspect the work before the painter left, I asked him why he didn't follow the instructions I gave him. He said he just decided that it would be better to do it the way that he did! As a result, I will have to get on a ladder and paint the areas near the ceiling - which is what I hire this firm to do! These are double high walls in the area not painted - and a pain to get at (maybe that is why he didn't paint them?)!
If you use these guys, you have to be there to watch what they do - or they may not follow your instructions!"

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Only use spackle on plaster walls when the imperfection is small. It’s best used for nail holes or small dings in the plaster. Spackle dries quickly, allowing you to continue the repair process shortly after using it. Plaster can be tricky to repair, though, so if you run into issues, call a pro so that you don’t risk further damage.

Like many other repair projects, the cost to fix a behind-the-wall shower leak depends on several factors. The cost of your repair may depend on the type of leak (from a clog or burst pipe), type of piping, and location of the leak. The extent of the issue and how difficult it is to access the pipes can greatly impact and increase your price. On average, you can expect to pay around $150 to $600 to repair a leaking shower.

Your walls are likely cracking due to fluctuations in the temperature outside. Drywall tends to expand and contract when temperatures and humidity levels change, and this repeated movement can lead to cracks in your walls, particularly around door frames. If you have multiple diagonal cracks, you may want to have your foundation inspected, as cracks can also be a sign of a bigger issue.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

Plaster is a pretty tough surface, but it can still sustain damage from things like bumping against it, water issues, dampness, extreme humidity changes, and plain old age. Most plaster walls last hundreds of years and will only be taken down to the base layer when major repairs are required. Being cautious around the wall, not placing furniture against it, and ensuring stable humidity are all great ways to reduce possible damage.
