"We wanted a handyman to seal the soffit and other places around the roof line to keep pests out. Secondly, we wanted to see about repairing some mortar cracks in the brick facade. They kept pushing the time out to come out for estimate until I could not be home. They said they could give a quote without seeing me since it was all exterior work. The first time they were supposed to come out, they did not come. The next time, the quote over the phone was given as $99 for the first hour and $75 each hour afterwards. Estimated 1.5-2 hours/ Plus $45 in materials =$219. Was told the estimator was really good, and I should not have to pay for more time than estimated. I also asked about taking a check since they were doing a by the hour rate. I was pretty sure she said that would be okay. Next, I got a written estimate for same rate, but now 3 hours of work and $50 of supplies =$299. When asked about this, was told it was 1.5 hours for the soffit work and 1.5 for the mortar/brick work. Okay... The handyman showed up and talked to my husband and myself. Now the price is $600 and he needs half in cash before he can start. He used spray foam to fill the holes and reattach the soffit. It made a big mess. A piece of trim fell off the house and broke. He told us that if my husband could glue it back together, he would come back and put it up on Tuesday. We asked about cleaning up the mess, and he said he would do that Tuesday also. He wanted the rest of the money. Tuesday came and went. I called and was told he told us Wednesday. Wednesday night I received a call to say he would be by Thursday. Thursday, he came back with some more people. He had them start cutting the foam that was sticking out away. Then he says, that is putting holes in it and it would defeat the purpose. We should paint over it instead. Asked if he was going to paint over it, and he said he did not want to. Told me he could not put the trim back up because it might fall back off and hurt someone. He finished cutting off foam from front side of house and cleaned it off the driveway and windows it had dripped on. Scraped it off brick on side, leaving big scratches all over the brick. The front has parts that look like snail slime where he cleaned it with Acetone? In the back and sides, he just scraped it though. The brick mortar appears sealed and looks good. The main reason we had him out though looks terrible. Hopefully, where he was cutting it off in the front is still sealed."

"We needed him to build a room, tear down a bathroom, rebuild those walls at different angles, put flooring down and build onto another area. It was all done right and done in a timely manner. I would hire him again. All was done for Odds -N- Ends Outlet and we have received many complements on the looks of the business."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can paint over plaster, but repair any damage to the plaster first, or the paint will crack and bubble. You should also prepare the surface of the plaster to accept paint, which gives your paint job the best chance of looking good and lasting a long time. Before applying the color you want, apply a coat or two of primer. Additionally, use latex paint, and choose a latex paint with a satin finish for areas with dampness, like bathrooms.

Costs range from $500 to $5,000, depending on damage size, labor, and finishing requirements.

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.

While every home has its own unique needs, ceiling drywall installation typically follows a staggered or stepped pattern to enhance structural integrity and reduce the visibility of seams. Starting from one corner, sheets are placed perpendicular to the ceiling joists, with the ends of adjacent sheets meeting along the center of the joist. The next row begins with a half sheet, ensuring joints don't align vertically. This alternating pattern, combined with proper taping and mudding, creates a seamless appearance and strengthens the ceiling structure, minimizing the risk of cracks over time.

While not always necessary, you can glue a drywall ceiling in addition to using screws or nails. Drywall is typically secured to ceiling joists with fasteners, which is often sufficient. However, adding construction adhesive can offer benefits like preventing sagging, bridging gaps, and reducing air leaks for better energy efficiency. It may also be used for specific acoustic or insulation needs. On the other hand, many professionals advise against it because properly placed screws make the drywall structural, glue doesn't add strength, and it makes future repairs or replacements significantly more difficult. Ultimately, it's best to follow local building codes and project-specific requirements to decide if adhesive is right for your ceiling.
