"Luis and his team, did excellent drywall repair for us. He is very particular. He came back after the mud was dry and spent another hour adding another coat and also returned the next day.. He has pride in his work And wants to do a great job.. His quote was the best out of 3 bids. Iâ m glad I found him and now have him in my contacts to call direct. Luis Salinas."

"Nelson was professional and prompt in his estimate, and gave a very reasonable estimate for the drywall and door work. He was willing to go the extra mile to make sure the work was done to absolute perfection and his attention to detail and professionalism was superb. I will definitely continue to hire him for any further handyman or construction work we need in the future. Like I said, exceptional work at very reasonable prices, and very prompt and professional-- there was never any upselling for unnecessary work and this was a big plus that showed me that Nelson and his company have integrity."

"During the 2021 freeze, we had a lot of damage from broken pipes. We needed new walls, ceilings, bathroom cabinets. Also did some wallpaper and ceramic tiles. We were especially happy with the bathroom cabinets. Just exactly what we ordered. I actually made the old ones, and the new ones are better than the ones I had made."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to cut holes in drywall for electrical boxes is to use a spiral saw with a drywall router bit. Hang the drywall without cutting out a hole for the box, but make sure you measure and mark where the box is located on the wall. Once you screw in the drywall sheet, drill a small hole into the box void, insert the spiral saw bit, and move it around the edge of the box using the inside wall as a guide. You can also use an oscillating multi-tool with an electrical box cutout for fast, professional results.

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.

The age of your home can clue you in to whether you have plaster or drywall ceilings. Homes built after the ‘70s are more likely to have drywall ceilings and walls, while older homes have plaster. You can also do the pushpin test: A pushpin will go into drywall, whereas it’s much harder to push one into a plaster wall. If you’re still unsure, ask a drywall professional to let you know which type of ceilings and walls you have.

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

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.
