Our reputation is based on service, safety, and quality, regardless of how large or small the job.

"Ruben is friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable in both residential and commercial, but subcontracts some work. He did a descent job building a few interior office walls and correcting most of his mistakes, but is best suited working in areas not occupied. You?ll want to provide sketches with measurements to ensure no miscommunication (e.g., exact light placement/height). The statement of work should specify how the area should be prepped for construction/painting, what constitutes a finished project (e.g., baseboards included or not, what will be painted), and how the area will be restored. Our main issue was lack of proper construction/paint dust mitigation and covering floors/walls/ceiling/furniture with the right materials. He caused damage to the flooring (carpets and wood), baseboards, and one of the sprinkler heads. The latter being at least $1200 to repair. He tried to clean, but it was too much. So he wrote off the unpaid balance to help reimburse us. "

"Case number 19194290. Edgar, the owner, came and looked at what I wanted painted. Mainly touchups and shelf painting. He suggested power washing. I got a price in a few days. The bid was for another property that I do not own. I told him and Amber (his secretary, I guess) that was not my property. I kept getting price revisions for someone else’s property. Finally, I got a bid for my property. Told him the price was way too high. He cut the price in half. I later realized he had simply eliminated painting the shelves, something I needed done. We kept texting back and forth, trying to agree on what would be painted and what it would cost. He offered to do some power washing. We kept negotiating on price. No price or services included was ever agreed upon . One day Edgar called and said his guy was out there power washing. I was not home. I never agreed to any power washing as we had not finished negotiating. . Like I said, we were still negotiating. Naturally, I never expected work to start until we agreed on items to be included and price. He started talking very fast and very loudly. I kept telling him to slow down because I could not understand him. He kept yelling and talking fast. I told him I sensed he was angry but I could not understand what he was angry about. Then he hung up. I had taken pictures of the supposed “work” that I never agreed to. One is a wiping of my porch. Clearly it was not cleaned. The other is the deck still full of bird droppings. These were taken AFTER the supposed “work”. Amber sent me a bill for $2,500.today. Absurd amount. For “power washing “ that was poorly done? I sent copies of these pics and told her I had never authorized anyone from their company to do any work on my house. She said if I did not pay the $2,500 they would put a lien on my property."

Plaster Repair questions, answered by experts

Although their applications are very similar, no drywall compound and spackle are not the same thing. Spackle is a bit thicker and is used to patch holes as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. Joint compound shrinks a bit more and can be more temperamental to spread. However, one benefit is that you can use joint compound as spackle (for small jobs), but you can’t use spackle as joint compound.  

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.

Heat can help plaster dry faster, but it's very easy to get too much of a good thing. When exposed to high heat during the curing process, plaster can dry out too quickly, leading to cracks and affecting the material's integrity. The recommended drying temperature should be listed on the plaster's packaging. If possible, set the thermostat in the room to that temperature, but not any higher.

It is possible to repair plaster walls yourself, but it’s not always a good idea. Hiring a professional means you’ll have expert eyes on the damage looking to see if there is an underlying issue or if the cracks are just from normal expansion and contraction. Additionally, a professional’s plaster repair will very likely last longer than a DIY job, which means you could end up saving money over time by going with a pro from the start.

Once you’ve contained the leak, the average cost to repair a ceiling ranges from $419 to $1,359. But small ceiling patches can cost around $150. The cost to fix a leak in the ceiling will depend on the size of the affected area and the extent of the damage. As always, a pro is the best person to give you a quote on your specific situation.
