"Juan installed drywall in a room in my barn. It was full of challenges and he rose to the occasion. He was very professional and got the job done a head of schedule. I would hire him again for any future drywall work."

"Here’s a polished review you could post: We had a great experience with East Texas Patch. Juan and Trinity were both very knowledgeable, professional, and courteous throughout the entire process. They took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure the job was done right. Their attention to detail and quality of work really stood out. We truly appreciate their hard work and would highly recommend them to anyone needing their services. Or a shorter version: Juan and Trinity at East Texas Patch were excellent to work with. They are knowledgeable, courteous, and made sure the job was done right the first time. Great service and quality work — highly recommend!"

Small jobs welcome

"Gary and his crew paid attention to my safety as well as doing their job. They removed old rotting boards, insulation, and placed fresh siding on home. They painted with attention to trim, appearance, and underpinning. Glass in couple of windows was replaced. When they built my widened back porch, I asked for adjustments. They gladly came back and made adjustments. The prices wre reasonable and he discussed costs with me along the way. I will definitely call this team if I need anything done."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

When you are learning how to tape and mud drywall, waiting for things to dry requires a lot of patience. So how long does drywall mud take to dry? On average, it takes about 24 hours. However, it depends on things like the thickness of the mud, as well as the room’s temperature, humidity, and ventilation. Using thin layers of mud in a warm, low-humidity room with good airflow reduces average drying time. You also could speed up drying time by making use of hot drywall mud, which consists of a powder that you mix with water, instead of using pre-mixed mud. 

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.

Drywall can be toxic to the environment and to humans in some cases. As drywall breaks down in a landfill and comes in contact with other organic chemicals, it can create hydrogen sulfide gas or leach into the groundwater. Additionally, the CDC recommends methods for controlling the inhalation of drywall dust when handled. While the common ingredients of drywall—gypsum, silica, and mica—are naturally occurring, they can cause irritation in some humans.

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.

Plaster can be a difficult DIY to master, especially if you plan to plaster an entire room, rather than patch a small area. Before you begin a plaster DIY project, you need to know which tools and type of plaster to use. It's also important to know how to prepare the surface and apply the plaster for a smooth finish. If that all sounds like a lot of work, you may prefer hiring a local plaster repair contractor to do the job.
