"Julio is a very professional person. His company is great and him and his crew do a great job. He drove 2 hours each way to do sheetrock and texturing for us. A few times we were not ready yet and he kept in touch always and made the scheduling easy for us. He takes an enormous amount of pride in his work and he deserves more praise than I could give him. We have 4 more rent houses we are having him do the work for. We will always use his services."

"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.

"The only negative I could say is he didn't haul off some old timbers but we didn't discuss it so he probably didn't know if I wanted him to or not. Otherwise everything was great. Excellent service. Quick. I think the only time he stopped was for lunch unlike somewho take a break every couple of hours, he worked until the job was completed. Would totally hire again and/or recommend!"

Plaster Repair 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.

With its breathability and flexibility, lime plaster is among the most durable of all plaster types. It's also fire-resistant and has a proven track record, as people have been using it for thousands of years.

However, all plaster types will last for many years with the right care and treatment. Proper preparation and installation will also help ensure your plaster walls look great for as long as possible.

Ensures structural integrity and aesthetic consistency with proper materials and techniques.

If your premixed drywall mud is dried out or has begun to set in the bucket, you may be able to revive it by adding warm water and stirring. However, the first and most important step is to scrape off any hard, dried bits of drywall that may have accumulated toward the top of the container and throw them away because they will not easily reconstitute back into the drywall mud mix.

It may take a bit of patience and trial and error to match your particular drywall texture type when making repairs. For orange peel or knockdown finishes, use a spray texture product or a thinned joint compound applied with a roller or sponge. Practice on scrap drywall or cardboard first. Once dry, lightly sand and prime before painting.
