"Dennis was prompt, professional, and a pleasure to deal with. He came to repair a pocket door that came off it's track. He had to take down the molding to fix the door. When he was finished, it didn't even look like anything was pulled apart. Pricing very fair, also. Very happy. He's now our new "guy"."

"Mark, with Tile by Donovan has been great. His pricing was right in line with three other estimates I received. I chose to go with Mark/Tile by Donovan, because I liked Markâ s attitude and manners best. I split my tile projects into two separate jobs, as I was waiting on another contractor to install the kitchen countertops before we could get to the backsplash. I gave Mark an initial challenge by requesting he add a small wall of tile adjacent to a previous tile job on my master bathroom shower. As Mark began that job, we soon noticed there was a difficulty in that the previous tile person did not have precisely straight rows, so Mark had to make undetectable adjustments as he installed the tile to make it work. He did a fantastic job and you canâ t detect any movement, visually. I invited him back to install the second project, being my kitchen back splash. Once my countertops were installed, we realized there was a 3rd inch of gap between the center of the wall and the countertop, thanks to poor workmanship during drywall. Fortunately, Mark and Johnnie knew how to correct the issue by building up the wall prior to installing the tile. Mark is meticulous in his work. Johnnie, his partner is awesome too. Mark uses a laser to make sure his rows stay perfectly level. He made sure that the focal point was centered and worked out from there. Every row is exactly equal and lined up evenly from the counter, as well as the cabinets. I couldnâ t be more pleased. I wish I would have found Tile by Donovan when I first started my whole house remodel. Iâ ve had 4 previous tile people install tile in my house, each being subpar. Mark was the 5th tile contractor to work on my home. He and Johnnie are awesome. I would recommend them all day long. Not only is his work awesome, he and Johnnie are polite and respectful. They took care to respect my home as they worked, and cleaned up afterwards each day. He does a great job of listening to you and does well in executing those ideas into reality. Lastly, Mark is very responsive with his phone calls and texts. Heâ s easy to get hold of. He communicates the night prior to arrival and confirms his ETA in the morning. He also communicates if heâ s going to be late. He respects your time. Lastly, he went over and above by picking up additional materials for me and allowed me to reimburse him through Venmo. I wish I could leave pictures on this website, but it doesnâ t provide for pictures. Absolutely over and above. I highly recommend this team."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

A post-drywall inspection could uncover many problems that weren’t present during the pre-drywall inspection, including insufficient insulation, missing weather stripping, improperly installed plumbing and lighting fixtures, flooring damage, drywall damage, plumbing leaks, aesthetic issues, and more. Structural problems, which are often expensive to fix and are common reasons to walk away after a home inspection, are easier to see before the drywall goes up, but a post-drywall inspection may highlight minor issues with house settling and foundation problems.

Plaster that sags or bulges, shows extensive deep cracks, or is crumbling from water damage or simply time may need replacement. Plaster walls can look a little “worn” for a long time before they need replacing. The only real way to know if it needs a replacement is to hire a professional to assess the condition of the plaster.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

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.

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.
