"When I moved into my home, several rooms featured a unique plaster finish designed to mimic the look of concrete walls. For years, I searched for a contractor or paint company who could replicate it, especially for a small bathroom renovation I had in mind. Every professional I contacted turned down the job, worried they wouldn’t be able to match the finish closely enough. Fast forward to today, while preparing to list my home, I needed to repair a crack in that same material. A local paint company, who said they don’t handle this type of work, recommended Tony, calling him “the best drywall guy in town.” That same day, Tony came out to assess the job. From the start, his confidence was incredibly reassuring. After completing the initial repair and letting it dry, we noticed the color wasn’t quite right. Without hesitation, Tony returned and worked meticulously, layering multiple shades and using a trial-and-error approach, until it matched perfectly. He didn’t leave until it was flawless. Tony is more than a drywall expert - he’s a true ARTIST. When I’m settled into my new future home, Tony will be the first person I call."

"I hired Ernest to do multiple jobs preparing my home to list including framing, drywall, tile and painting. I live in the DFW area and I was nervous about coordinating all of this work at a distance. Ernest was great at communicating with me through the whole process via text and phone. He provided detailed quotes via email so I could see exactly what the scope of work entailed. He gave me regular updates including photos and videos on the progress of the work, giving me peace of mind. He was very flexible working around my tenants move out/clean up schedule. All the work he did looks great, and I know it will add value to the home. He definitely takes pride in his work, and it shows in the finished product. I recommend their services, and I won't hesitate to call if further work is needed!"

"We had Ron do several projects to include repairing some dry wall and when he was done the wall looked brand new. We were extremely pleased with his work and plan on using him in the future."

"My quote was excellent. My roof was installed in 1 day came back and installed the siding. Chris was very pleasant he went beyond in answering all my questions and made sure the work was completed on time as quoted. The color of the siding was not easy to find but he located the perfect match. There were no upfront cost. All the work was done and inspected before he was paid. He upgraded my roof. He even provided photos every step of the project for my insurance company. Best looking roof in the neighborhood. Chris exceed my expectations."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Whether you apply the drywall mesh before or after drywall mud depends on the type of patch it is. For self-adhesive patches, you’ll put the patch down first and then coat it with mud. Mesh patches that are not self-adhesive will require you to put mud down first and then press the mesh into it, followed by additional coats of mud.

There is no way to cut drywall without making dust, but you can reduce the amount of dust and especially the dangerous airborne particles by using manual cutting tools. Using a utility knife to score and snap your drywall will minimize dust production, and a jab saw for cutting cutouts for boxes and fixtures will generate almost no airborne dust. Even if you use these methods, you should still wear a respirator and safety goggles to avoid damage to your lungs and eyes.

Popular wall textures include orange peel, knockdown, spray sand, and smooth finishes. Orange peel and knockdown are particularly common choices for drywall as they are simple and cost-effective. Orange peel texture has a lightly bumpy surface resembling the skin of an orange, while knockdown (sometimes called knockout) looks like a stucco finish with flattened high spots. In contrast, popcorn texture has fallen out of fashion, partly due to its past association with asbestos and a shift toward more restrained interior design styles.

You should not leave drywall outside, especially overnight or in a wet, humid climate. Exposure to rain and humidity can damage the drywall, weakening its structural integrity and making it susceptible to mold growth. If you must leave drywall outside during a project, be sure to cover it with a tarp or keep it inside a storage shed to protect it. Even drywall intended for exterior projects requires a protective moisture barrier. For best results, store any extra drywall in a dry area away from the elements.

A 50-pound mirror can be hung on drywall, but only if it has the support of strong hardware. Ideally, you can find the studs behind the drywall and attach the mirror to them; this will give your mirror better stability. Otherwise, confirm that you are using anchors appropriate to the weight of the mirrors. Another technique is to use French cleats—two pieces of wood that fit together, with one piece attached to the wall and the other to the mirror. This allows the weight to be distributed over a wider area.
