"Roger was here promptly & ordered a part after 1st visit. 2nd visit Roger came out again to install part. He was very friendly and spent the time to assist me moving around the food in my freezer. That was above and beyond customer service."

"Some moisture had seeped in damaging our baseboards. Jeff knew where to go to match the molding to the tee and replaced about 50 of board in about 3 hours. Not only that but he offered solutions to keep the damage from happening again which was very generous of him. He is professional, efficient, and knows what he s doing. I will definitely keep him in mind for future projects."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Drywall repair is typically completed within a day, depending on damage extent.

While a normal moisture level for drywall is between 5% and 12%, replacement is recommended if you get consistent readings above 17%. At this level, the drywall is likely too compromised by extensive moisture damage to be considered safe. You can replace either the entire sheet or just the affected section. If you are unsure after a visual inspection, it is best to have a contractor or water restoration provider use a professional moisture meter to get an accurate reading.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

Drying alone can take 1 to 4 hours to dry to the touch per plaster layer, but some types of plaster take several hours longer to dry. However, this doesn’t mean the job is done because plaster doesn’t fully harden until it cures, which can take a few days to a couple of weeks. It may take even longer if you’re building a new, pretty thick plaster wall. Allow the plaster to cure before painting it.

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.
