"I called Nate on a Tuesday afternoon to ask about a drywall repair in our kitchen. He happened to be working in the area, and he arrived at our house about 90 minutes later to fix the hole in our ceiling. I was able to send him a picture when I first spoke with him, and he was able to quote a price, and he assured me that he could have the hole fixed that day, and he did! He also tackled another project in our hallway. He and his crew returned two more times over the next few days to complete both projects, as sanding was required. Their work is exceptional, and we were so impressed that the work could be completed so quickly. I would highly recommend Nate and his crew!"

"Mike Thomas and his team did a GREAT job! He was dependable, personable and had great attention to detail...he spotted issues not seen by the other two companies. He was the middle in pricing among the 3 estimates we received. After meeting with all 3 companies my wife and I thought Mike was the right choice...and he was...we were right!!!"

"Allen stained a pergola, power washed some of the outside of my house, fixed soffit and replaced a piece of fascia. All his work is excellent, he is very meticulous, certainly met all my expectations. I would highly recommend Allen to anyone. He is professional, on time, and cleans up after working. I am very pleased with the results. I will definitely have him back."

"The owners of the company were helpful and easy to talk to . The professionals they sent to do the painting did an excellent job. They covered everything and made sure no paint got on anything but where it was supposed to be painted. I highly recommend them and I will use them again. Thanks again gabe and jen for doing such an excellent job."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

The easiest way to cut holes in drywall for electrical boxes is to use a spiral saw with a drywall router bit. Hang the drywall without cutting out a hole for the box, but make sure you measure and mark where the box is located on the wall. Once you screw in the drywall sheet, drill a small hole into the box void, insert the spiral saw bit, and move it around the edge of the box using the inside wall as a guide. You can also use an oscillating multi-tool with an electrical box cutout for fast, professional results.

Plaster itself has a higher R-value than drywall. However, there are other considerations surrounding plaster and insulation. As a general rule, it's easier to obtain consistency in insulating value and quality when working with drywall rather than plaster. Plaster walls often don't contain any insulation behind the wall covering by design, and careful evaluation is necessary when choosing to add it.

Vinegar and bleach are effective options for removing mold from drywall. Vinegar is a better choice if you have a smaller mold issue while bleach is best if you have a larger mold problem. If the area you're cleaning has limited ventilation, using vinegar would be a better option. In that case, you could mix vinegar with baking soda to remove more stubborn mold growth.

When you are learning how to tape and mud drywall, waiting for things to dry requires a lot of patience. So how long does drywall mud take to dry? On average, it takes about 24 hours. However, it depends on things like the thickness of the mud, as well as the room’s temperature, humidity, and ventilation. Using thin layers of mud in a warm, low-humidity room with good airflow reduces average drying time. You also could speed up drying time by making use of hot drywall mud, which consists of a powder that you mix with water, instead of using pre-mixed mud.
