"I had a couple spots in our drywall that needed repair from an old security system. He was extremely quick to respond, communicated well on the details and timeline, and the finished product looks great at a very fair price. Would recommend to anyone looking for a drywall repair."

"MLS Drywall & Paint is an excellent company that strives to fully satisfy. This was the only company that truly listened to my desires and made sure to explain all possible options and limitations that could lie ahead. They have a trustworthy, courteous, and hardworking group of craftsmen. The work they have done for me was everything I was hoping for and more. While they were not the cheapest pricewise, the cost is worth the quality of craftsmanship they provide! I am so happy with all the work you have done in my home. I have come to think of this company as an extension of my family. Thank you!"

"I was having trouble getting a drywall repair done because everyone that I called was very busy and said it was going to be 4-6 weeks before they could do the repair. I called Cane at Dream Renovationz about 7pm on Thursday evening.  I really expected to leave a message, but to my surprise Cane actually answered the phone.  I told him that I needed drywall replaced/repaired in three different areas due to a washer/dryer add-on in the garage. I explained that I was having a great deal of trouble getting someone to do the job.  Cane said that normally they did not do small jobs, but he would try to help me out.  After talking again the next day, Cane said he would send his drywall contractor out on Saturday to do the job.  On Saturday, Cane and his drywall contractor arrived and Cane looked over the job.  He quoted me about $90 higher than the other two estimates I had received, but he was there and willing to do the job, so I agreed to the price. The contractor was very pleasant, and worked steady and was very careful.  At one point there was an electrical problem that came about when turning on a power tool. It seemed that either a plug was bad or a breaker was bad. Not sure what to do, I called Cane and explained the problem.  He showed up at my house and fixed the problem within a few minutes.  I was very impressed at his willingness to fix the problem and also impressed that he was able to identify and fix the electrical issue within a few minutes. The contractor finished the project and asked me if I was completely satisfied.  He wanted to make sure that I was happy before he left.  I was very happy with the work and would use this company again.  I really appreciate that Cane was able to help me out and do this small job for me. Cane was friendly and so was the contractor that actually did the work.

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Plaster ceilings can sag for several reasons. In some cases, the plaster and other building materials shift and come apart over time, which is why you’ll commonly find drooping plaster ceilings in older homes. Improper installation, foot traffic, and water damage—often from a leaky roof or a broken pipe—can also cause plaster ceilings to sag.

When choosing materials for finishing basement walls, consider factors such as moisture resistance, durability, and fire resistance. Opt for materials specifically designed for basement environments, like moisture-resistant drywall or cement board. Insulation with vapor barriers can help regulate temperature and prevent condensation. Consider using mold-resistant paints or coatings. 

Research and consult with experts to select materials that are suitable for your specific basement conditions and intended use. Prioritize quality and compatibility to achieve long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing results.

The easiest way to remove texture from walls is the soak-and-scrape method. You’ll need to spray a section of the wall with water and let the water soak in and soften the texture. Then, you need to scrape the texture off using a drywall taping knife. This method works best with unpainted walls since paint prevents water from saturating the textured joint compound.

When used correctly, drywall patch kits can work well. However, there are limitations. Specifically, these kits can only cover holes up to 5 inches in diameter. For anything larger than that, you’ll need to cut out the affected section of drywall and replace it with a new piece. That’s a far more complicated process that involves buying the right type of drywall, finding the wall studs, cutting into your wall, and screwing the replacement drywall in place.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.
