"Initially had trouble finding someone to give an estimate for the drywall in the garage. So glad I found Speedy Patch on Angi. Christian was wonderful to work with. He was able to complete the job quickly."
"Mitch, Jake and Jameson did a superb job in removing the kitchen and foyer tile and removing the old underlayment. The installation of the laminate vinyl flooring was perfect. Mitch repaired drywall damage in every room of the house. I cannot say enough good things about them. Their estimate was certainly fair, they showed up to estimate the job when they said they would and they started when they said they would and finished in short order. I would not hesitate to highly recommend their work to anyone rehab, repair, or refurbishment. Thanks to all of them."

"Kris went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with his work. I initially needed some areas of drywall patched and painted, and Kris took the time to consult with me on other projects around the house he could help with too. It was wonderful to get several things checked off my home to-do list by someone kind, careful, and efficient! Would recommend to any of my friends and family."
"Great job! Brian insulated, installed drywall, painted (interior), installed flooring and baseboards. He worked efficiently completing the job with great quality and excellent customer service. I will definitely use him again for other projects."
Although my husband and I were here and watched them try really hard to located the bangning pipe, the pipes still seem to bang a lot. (My husband later did some further padding of pipes outside the wall near the hot water heater and that seemed to help a little) The drywall repair was fine, but the paint job , left to a helper, had to be redone.
The attempt to fix the gap in the double doors by thick weatherstripping and lifting one door only made it impossible to open and close the door . In order to open the door, my husband had to rip off most of the foam weatherstripping and to lock it again, he has to use something to lift the one door enough to get the lock to line up with the latch . We now believe that the cause is settling of the house and we will need new doors and new framing. It would have been better if we had just been told "this is not fixable" instead of the attempt that cost us over $200 and made things worse
Drywall anchors won’t work on plaster. Instead, they will more than likely cause more damage and pull out the plaster. The best type of anchors to use on plaster walls are the ones that will bite into the surrounding area, such as molly bolts and toggle bolts. Masonry anchors with expanders on the sides also work for lighter pictures.
It’s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you’re referring to cracked, in which case that’s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it’s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage.
Drywall can get wet and dry out without sustaining permanent damage, but only if the water damage is minor. If you have a small leak and are quick to correct the issue and set up blower fans and dehumidifiers, your drywall should dry out. If the leak is persistent, the drywall becomes totally waterlogged, or mold begins forming on the drywall, you should remove and replace it.
Whether you need a drywall anchor depends on the specifics of your project, particularly what you're hanging and where. You do not need a drywall anchor if you can screw or nail the object directly into a wooden stud, as the wood provides sufficient support and stability. However, if there are no studs in the location where you plan to hang the item, you should use drywall anchors to ensure it is securely supported. For very lightweight objects, like small pictures, adhesive picture hanging strips can be a suitable alternative to anchors.
Drywall mudding can be done in one day if the project is small and the desired effect isn’t too complex. If you need multiple layers of mud, one day may not be realistic. But a single room that requires little more than joint compound on the seams and screws can be done in a day or two.
