"We used Patch Boys to texture a small renovation. Joshua did a thorough walkthrough and had a couple of recommendations which we agreed with. They showed up when they said they would, did everything we agreed to and their quality of work was amazing. He did a fantastic job of matching the existing texture and they were very careful at keeping things clean. I will use them in the future. I highly recommend them."

"Alex was very communicative and flexible with my schedule. We spoke on the phone, toured the home, and he gave me a reasonable quote. He finished the job a day early and I am very satisfied with his work and would hire him again in the future."
"I couldn?t be happier with the work done on my rooms! The painter was professional, punctual, and detail-oriented from start to finish. The walls look flawless?smooth, clean lines with no mess left behind. They took the time to prep everything properly, which really shows in the final result.

I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for reliable, top-notch painting!"

You can repair plaster ceilings yourself after the cause of the ceiling damage has been addressed. However, the repair can easily take 5 hours and can be slightly challenging for those without previous experience. If you do decide to flex your DIY muscle, have a helper to help hold the ladder and pass you the tools for safety purposes.
Yes, if there is mold in your drywall mud and you then use it to build walls in your house—or if mold develops in your set drywall, like it can in hot and humid areas—it can lead to illness. Mold in your drywall (or other parts of your home) can make existing respiratory conditions or allergies worse, and the effect can be more intense for those who have existing health issues or compromised immune systems.
Most repairs take 1-3 days, depending on drying times for joint compound and paint touch-ups.
Certain drywall textures, like sand and sometimes popcorn, can be smoothed by applying skim coats, sanding the walls, or chipping away the texture. However, it’s worth considering removing the texture and starting with a blank canvas. Smoothing textured walls requires a lot of sandpaper and elbow grease and can take longer than just outright removing the texture.
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.
