"In July we signed a contract.  Darrell said he would start in September and the day after Labor day his crew showed up and started building the breeze way for the new tiny house.  By the end of the week the breeze way was built and footers were poured for the house. The next weekend block was laid.  Framing started within the minimum time allowed for block to cure.  His crew had it framed, roofed, and windows in by the end of September.  
After the framing was completed my wife and I decided there was not enough room on first floor for a bedroom. We were thinking of adding a bedroom in basement.  Darrell recommended we add bedroom to the side of the building.  Good decision.  He had the  12' X 12' addition framed and roofed within two days.  This was done in middle of October.   
Rough plumbing was started and completed within a week along with rough electrical which took about two days.
Building was insulated as soon as rough ins were completed which took one day.  Drywall followed right after the insulation was done.  Drywall was completed around Halloween.
Initial painting took about a week and then floor installed.  This was completed by Thanksgiving.
Finished plumbing and electrical completed around 1st of December. 
Touch up painting and hvac were completed by 2nd week of December.  

Daughter and grandkids moved in new tiny house December 23.  Merry Christmas.
Darrell time line is impeccable.

"Everything ran smooth and they came in under budget. It is nice to have a handyman service that is professional and honest.  They really took their time to make sure that they knew the source of the leak and that they had it sealed.  They also advised me of the possibility of more storms tomorrow and offered to clean out the gutters while they were there for a very fair price.  Sense having my knee replaced I don't do roofs anymore; well I know who I can call now.  Again thanks Walls Construction and Handyman Service, no more roof leaks or gutters clogged."

"Shawn Hall and his crew showed up when they said they would and kept us informed through the whole project. He was upfront on all costs of the project and explained the process. Our drop ceiling and outlet turned out great and we couldn't be happier! We would definitely recommend them to anyone who wants reliable, good people to do quality work. We will be using them again!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The best tool for skim coating drywall is a skim coating blade, which can smooth out joint compound in wide stretches. While you could use a smaller drywall knife for skim coating, the smaller size means it’ll take longer to smooth out each section. Instead, consider investing in a skim coating blade for the quickest application.

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.

To properly clean and maintain your skip trowel drywall texture, dust the surface weekly with an electrostatic duster or vacuum with a soft brush attachment. Never scrub the surface. You can remove stains by gently applying a mild detergent solution with a paint roller, removing it with a damp roller, and drying with a dry roller. To cut down on cleaning frequency, avoid indoor smoking and limit the use of fireplaces.

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.

Drywall can get wet and dry out without sustaining permanent damage, but only if the water damage is minor. If you have a small leak and are quick to correct the issue and set up blower fans and dehumidifiers, your drywall should dry out. If the leak is persistent, the drywall becomes totally waterlogged, or mold begins forming on the drywall, you should remove and replace it.
