"Corey arrived on time, fixed my front entry hallway ceiling and wall drywall repairs so professionally that it's impossible to tell where the patches were if I hadn't already known as he was able to match the wall paint color (green) and ceiling pattern perfectly. He also thoroughly cleaned the entire worksite."

"I have had two projects that I chose Vicente Gonzales, owner of J.B. Paint & Drywall Corp. The first was a roof leak that created some serious rework to our staircase. He did a super job. The second job was an interior painting project. We had rented the home for 12 years and it was clearly in need of repairs of the walls. The house now look brand new. Vicente is easy to work with, he and his team are craftsmen at what they do. They work hard, get the job done and offer very reasonable pricing. I will certainly continue to utilize J. B. Paint & Drywall for all of our painting and drywall needs."

"We had a pipe leaking and had 3 different holes cut out of the ceiling in the living room and one of the bedroom closets. Castillos came at 8:15am and they were done with all the drywall wall, sanding and clean up by 10:30am. I’m so happy with the quick and efficient results."

I started as a handyman after my career in law enforcement, so I've seen how hard it is for people to get help for anything. Customer service seems to be a thing of the past, but not with Middle Tennessee Enterprises. I pride myself in responding to everyone who contacts me for assistance. I have been incredibly blessed and have grown. We are now Middle Tennessee Enterprises, we can help you with any project big or small. We pride ourselves on our craftsmanship and quality along with our quick turn around time. We understand no one wants to live in a construction zone for longer then they have to. If you need anything do not hesitate to give us a call.

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.

A 50-pound mirror can be hung on drywall, but only if it has the support of strong hardware. Ideally, you can find the studs behind the drywall and attach the mirror to them; this will give your mirror better stability. Otherwise, confirm that you are using anchors appropriate to the weight of the mirrors. Another technique is to use French cleats—two pieces of wood that fit together, with one piece attached to the wall and the other to the mirror. This allows the weight to be distributed over a wider area.

There are six levels of drywall finish, from 0 to 5, that refer to the amount of work performed during the finishing process.

Level 0: Drywall is hung with no finishing work.

Level 1: Tape is placed over the seams between drywall sheets.

Level 2: A thin layer of mud is applied over the tape and screw holes. This level is common for utility rooms or walls that will be covered.

Level 3: A full coat of mud covers the screw holes and tape, but the surface is not sanded. This is often used in garages.

Level 4: This is the most common finish for visible interior walls. It involves applying two coats of mud over seams and screw holes, with sanding between each coat, creating a smooth surface ready for flat paint.

Level 5: This is a high-end finish for luxury homes. It includes full taping, mudding, and sanding, plus a final skim coat over the entire surface before painting.

Deciding whether to repair or replace drywall can be tricky, but your top considerations should be the extent of the damage and what caused the damage. For instance, if you need to repair a small hole caused by a doorknob that hit the wall, you can safely patch it without a second thought. However, if you have significant drywall damage caused by water damage, it’s best to thoroughly remove the drywall to inspect and repair the pipes behind it before replacing it.

A jigsaw is commonly used to cut holes in drywall. It offers versatility and precision, making it suitable for creating circular or irregular openings. When equipped with the right blade, a jigsaw can swiftly and cleanly cut through drywall, making it a good choice for DIY projects.
