"Couldn't have been happier with the service. I called Mr. Handyman of Charleston on a very rainy day, when we developed a leak in our sliding glass door. The other handyman services I called had two week waiting lists, but Mr. Handyman was able to come out the next morning. Between the time I made the appointment and the handyman Matt arrived, our mailbox also fell over due to all the rain, so we added that to the fix-it list as well.
Matt was on time and couldn't have been nicer or more professional. He completed both fixes in under three hours, and that included him having to go to Lowe's to pick up materials (and to pick up the new mailbox post I ordered online). I couldn't be happier with the work or the service, and I will use Mr. Handyman again for all our home repair needs.
One thing to note. While Mr. Handyman's prices are higher than many competitors, it was worth it for me to pay for prompt and professional service. Plus, the company guarantees their work for a year, so if we have any future trouble with these items, we have a means of recourse. I'd use them again or recommend them to anyone for these reasons.

"A large tree fell on my home during storm & I hired another contractor to complete repairs which included replacing 9-12 rafters/sheathing/shingles, re-building small front porch & adding 3 windows to sunroom. Original contractor installed the windows & did a lot of work on the roof but were very slow & work was sub-par.....they also had issues getting project permitted & I finally had to let them go. I was in a real bind to get repairs completed as I was in the middle of re-financing house when the storm hit. I contacted Commonwealth & they were able to come out & assess what needed to be done. They got the permits right away & got started. Most of the previous work had to be re-done....they removed the windows & added headers & proper support & re-installed, repaired roof & re-built front porch. All work was done professionally & in a timely manner. Also installed interior trim (baseboards/windowsills/frame) in sunroom, which I requested at the last minute, so house would be ready for appraisal. They did a nice job matching the original trim on older home. Would definitely hire again."

"I couldn’t be happier with the work done. it was professional, on time, and extremely detail-oriented. The drywall installation was seamless, with smooth finishes and clean lines throughout my home. They respected my space, kept the job site tidy, and completed the project right on schedule. What impressed me most was their communication they explained every step and made sure I felt comfortable with the process. If you’re looking for a drywall company that delivers quality craftsmanship and outstanding service, I highly recommend them!"

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.

Generally, your homeowner’s insurance might only cover ceiling collapses caused by problems under the coverage, such as a busted pipe. But if the ceiling collapse resulted from owner negligence, maintenance issues, or other reasons excluded by your policy, you could be on your own. Some policies might cover damages caused by the collapse but not the repair itself. Check with your policy carrier for the most accurate information regarding ceiling collapse coverage.

While it’s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.

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.
