"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!"

"Had to file a claim for new clothes dryer, and repairs on fridge. Foothills Star Appliance came to look at both. Eric was the repairman. He was friendly, answered all my questions, and very professional. I would highly recommend his company."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

According to the EPA, mold grows within 24 to 48 hours if left untreated after a water leak. So unless you notice the leak and stop it right away, you only have a day or so before mold is a real concern. If you don’t notice the leak, it can take about three weeks for the mold spores to become visible. That means you’ve likely had an active mold infection for a few weeks by the time you notice discoloration.

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.

You should not leave drywall outside, especially overnight or in a wet, humid climate. Exposure to rain and humidity can damage the drywall, weakening its structural integrity and making it susceptible to mold growth. If you must leave drywall outside during a project, be sure to cover it with a tarp or keep it inside a storage shed to protect it. Even drywall intended for exterior projects requires a protective moisture barrier. For best results, store any extra drywall in a dry area away from the elements.

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.
