"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

The best way to make long, straight cuts is to use a utility knife and a T-square to score the sheet, snap along the score, and then finish the cut by cutting through the paper on the opposite side with the utility knife. If you’re making small cuts, curved cuts, or cutouts for electrical boxes or light fixtures, you can use a manual jab saw to keep costs down, but an electric spiral saw or oscillating multi-tool will get the cleanest, fastest cuts possible.

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

Drywall tape is made of paper, while drywall mesh is made of fiberglass or metal. Drywall mesh patches are suitable for repairing small holes in drywall, while paper drywall tape holds a crease better for corners. You need joint compound to adhere drywall tape to the wall, while mesh patches may be self-adhesive.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

The cost to texture drywall depends on whether you want to do the work yourself or hire a professional. The cost of the drywall mud is far lower than labor costs for applying it. The labor cost to spray drywall compound onto a wall is between $0.80 and $1.50 per square foot, while you’ll pay between $1.50 and $2 per square foot for the labor to apply the texture by hand.
