"I highly recommend JM Painting for your home painting needs. Junior worked with me to reduce his price to meet my budget, while maintaining his high level of quality service. I am moving into a new home and had the interior walls, ceilings, and cabinets painted by JM's team. I'm very pleased with their work, and I am not easy to please! I'll be hiring them in the future for staining a fence and doing some exterior painting. If you need a painter, don't hesitate to use JM Painting!"

"Paul and his crew are always courteous and on time. They repaired water damage and moved fixtures on ceiling. Did excellent job in matching paint. In our new home, they installed new flooring throughout. He installed a particularly troublesome doggy door interior/exterior wall. Excellent job! His guys are always polite, comfortable with leaving crew while gone. Their clean up is top notch. Paul is very trustworthy and intuitive on what needs to be done. His pricing is on par with other estimates, but his professionalism won our trust. Plan to use him for other projects around new house and will/have recommend to neighbors and friends. Thank you, Paul for making the transition less painful!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Drywall can be installed directly on ceiling joists. In fact, this method is common in many construction projects. Drywall sheets are attached to the joists using screws, ensuring a secure and stable installation. Before attaching the drywall, it's important to mark the joist locations on the ceiling, allowing for accurate screw placement. Proper spacing between screws and careful taping and mudding of joints are crucial to creating a smooth and flawless ceiling surface. If the joists are in good condition and level, installing drywall directly on them is a practical and efficient approach.

If your premixed drywall mud is dried out or has begun to set in the bucket, you may be able to revive it by adding warm water and stirring. However, the first and most important step is to scrape off any hard, dried bits of drywall that may have accumulated toward the top of the container and throw them away because they will not easily reconstitute back into the drywall mud mix.

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.

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

Most handy homeowners can tackle removing texture from unpainted walls. Removing texture from painted walls is a bit trickier. Paint acts as a sealant, so you can’t soften the texture with water. Instead, you’ll have to add a layer of drywall compound known as a skim coat. This process is messy and takes some practice.
