"We've called Walls a few times and have had very capable electricians come to the house. Will keep using this company for sure. They did make an effort to do as little (necessary) damage to the drywall as possible during the creation of new lighting. Also, made sure to screw back in the drywall so it can be easily repaired. All went well.

"I am leaving this review for my sister, Gerline Estep. John and his crew fixed her porch and installed a step and handrail. She does not have internet service, but was so pleased with John's work that she asked me to leave a review for her. I also have used John's service earlier this year when he replaced my roof and repair water leak damage to a bedroom ceiling. I have also left him a review. If you need any type of home repair, roofing, flooring, etc., you will not go wrong with John Rife's service. Best service at the best price. Highly recommend.

"It went very well. Everything was done very quickly. The technician was on time and very professional. He even told me that I would need to get a handyman to replace the worn out drywall around one of the outlets. The total cost was approximately $130.00."

"It went pretty smoothly. One of the best contractors I have had from Choice Home Warranty. Century Restoration Maintenance, LLC and owner PeAyre Gardner were awesome. I have had CHW several years and I wanted to cancel because every thing we called about they denied the claim. My husband decided to keep them. I was pleasantly surprised that they fixed both the leak and drywall in the ceiling from the leak. I did have to provide extra pics from the leak before it was approved as initially the claim was denied."

"After our first contractor left us high and dry, our friends recommended Angie's List.  She told us about how the providers who belong to Angie's List are responsible and professional, so we asked her to give us a name of a handyman and construction service. That is when we were introduced to Walls Construction and Handyman Service.  We contacted them last Friday and their receptionist was very responsive and professional and made us feel at ease and asked if she could send over their field rep that evening due to our circumstance.  Their field rep came over Friday evening after work hours to look at what we needed done and was very professional too.  They allowed us to use our tile we had already purchased.   They showed up Monday morning Oct 8 at 9 AM as promised and completed the job beyond my expectations.  We will be booking future work with them to complete some other projects we have long been waiting for.  Thanks Angie's List. What a great service and thanks Walls Construction and Handy man service. A happy wife is a happy house :)"

"We had wanted to tile our bathroom floor and shower wall.  We called Ferguson Home Improvements and had them come out and give us an estimate.  We had already purchased the tile which was not a problem for them.  They gave us a great price and began work immediately.  During the process they found mold that was behind the shower wall.  This was a big concern for us because our youngest son has asthma and is highly allergic to mold.  Mr. Ferguson shared our concern and was very thorough in making sure that all the areas were removed and treated. During the construction phase of the project, Mr. Ferguson installed products that would insure that the "mold issue" was not going to happen again.  This was more work than we had planned on but it was well worth the health of our child!  It was very comforting to know that we had someone there doing the work that was knowledgeable in all areas, not just tile installation, and was able to fix the problem correctly.

"Cougar Development did an excellent job creating a living space out of an addition to a home built in 1918. The drywall work was excellent as was the placing of needed electrical outlets and ceiling fan/lighting. Closet space is extremely hard to come by in our neighborhood and Cougar was able to build a 30 sq ft closet that our growing family is able to take advantage of. This room was just a storage space and is now a usable living area after Cougar was done with it. The quality of work for the price I paid was amazing! I have already recommended Cougar to those in my neighborhood and will continue to do so!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to cut holes in drywall for electrical boxes is to use a spiral saw with a drywall router bit. Hang the drywall without cutting out a hole for the box, but make sure you measure and mark where the box is located on the wall. Once you screw in the drywall sheet, drill a small hole into the box void, insert the spiral saw bit, and move it around the edge of the box using the inside wall as a guide. You can also use an oscillating multi-tool with an electrical box cutout for fast, professional results.

It is more difficult to drywall a ceiling than it is to drywall a wall, but not so hard that DIYers can’t tackle it. One of the main issues with hanging drywall on your ceiling is getting it into place. Drywall isn’t light so, if you are hanging full drywall panels, you will need at least two (it’s better with more) people to hold the panel while you drill it into the ceiling as a single piece can weigh between 40 and 60 pounds and will need to be held in place for up to 10 minutes.

Yes, it is possible to rewire a house without removing the drywall, but this doesn’t work in all homes. You can pull out old wires and insert new ones if you have access to the wiring system via the ceiling or through a crawl space. Some pros can also use a magnetic kit to fish the old wire out of the wall through a hole cavity and install the new wires. Just keep in mind that doing this is less stable than removing drywall, as you won’t be able to staple the wires into the framing.

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.

A post-drywall inspection could uncover many problems that weren’t present during the pre-drywall inspection, including insufficient insulation, missing weather stripping, improperly installed plumbing and lighting fixtures, flooring damage, drywall damage, plumbing leaks, aesthetic issues, and more. Structural problems, which are often expensive to fix and are common reasons to walk away after a home inspection, are easier to see before the drywall goes up, but a post-drywall inspection may highlight minor issues with house settling and foundation problems.
