"I would recommend San Marcos DryWall Repair. They gave me a fair price for water damage under a window in my home. They replaced the drywall, the baseboards, and painted. It was all done in a single day and looks great."

"Ali did an amazing job fixing my bedroom drywall and an outdoor outlet all in one day. His price was very reasonable, and he left the place spotless when he was finished. It’s rare to find someone so skilled in both electrical and drywall work. Highly recommend!""

"I hired Patch Bros for a drywall patch and to have an attic access point installed in my ceiling. I had previously planned on hiring a different pro who had already given me an estimate, but then never called me back to move forward with the job. I am certainly glad that he didn’t, because the folks at Patch Bros gave me an estimate at more than HALF the price of the other company! They were quick to call me and set up the job and made short work of the project, and I paid exactly what was quoted in the estimate...which is always nice. I highly recommend them!"

"Byron called then came to my house within the hour. He looked at the problem with my front door and fixed it in about 20 minutes. His price was very, very reasonable. And he was pleasant, friendly and quite professional. He will be my first call next time I need a Handy Man. Mike Weaver"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

The time it takes for thinset to dry is determined by your room’s ambient temperature and humidity levels. Assuming the average humidity level is around 40% with an average temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit, thinset can dry within 48 hours. Lower temperatures and higher humidity can extend the curing process beyond 72 hours, while high heat and zero humidity can shorten the curing process. However, thinset can crack if it dries too fast.

You can take a few steps to save money on drywall installation, even when hiring a professional to do the bulk of the work for you. These ideas include the following:

  • Buy the drywall and other materials yourself to avoid product markup and delivery fees

  • Ask about discounts if you use the same company to tape, spackle, and paint

  • Hire drywall professionals in the winter when demand is the lowest

  • DIY as many parts of the project as possible, like replacing insulation and painting

Plaster is denser, harder, and more porous than drywall, so it absorbs moisture differently. This means you’ll often need more prep work, such as thorough sanding, patching, and priming with a high-quality bonding primer. Additionally, you may need more coats of paint to achieve even coverage. While the process takes more time, it helps ensure a durable and professional-looking result.

Cracks, holes, water damage, and dents from heavy equipment often require repair.
