"Balteza painted my home and stained an extensive deck, retaining wall and railing surrounding the house. They then rebuilt my patio in the back yard as well as the stairs leading to the back of the house on both sides of the house, replacing rotted timber and installing all new stone surfaces. Work quality was excellent."

"I highly recommend Alex and his team. I hired them for my downstairs remodel for drywall, carpentry, tile work, doors, floors and trim. Numerous times they went above and beyond to help me with just little things like patching the drywall around plugs when there were gaps. I found him to be very fair and honest. I gave them the access code and they showed up and cleaned up as well. He also had great communication about when he would or would not be there. I will be hiring him for the remaining work on my home!"

"Muhammed was very efficient and friendly. He did a fantastic job with our ceiling paint. What I was impressed by was the fact that he listened to my concerns about potential mold and he inspected and applied mold prevention agent without me asking. I'm very satisfied with his service!"

"I had a bedroom ceiling with a wedge shaped crack all across it. This was caused by workers who installed attic insulation, putting pressure on it one year ago. I was afraid the whole ceiling was going to come down. Mark knew just what to do. He followed the studs and anchored the cracked drywall to them with many long screw with washers. Then the ceiling laid flat. All he had to do was apply joint compound, sand, and paint. Now it’s nice and safe and it looks beautiful. He was prompt, professional, and polite. I would recommend hiring him again."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Whether it’s better to screw or glue drywall depends on your specific budget and project timeline. Professional drywall installers are more likely to use screws and fasteners than adhesives, but it takes longer. But if you are DIYing your drywall installation, glue is a perfectly fine choice if you’re willing to pay extra for adhesive.

A jigsaw is commonly used to cut holes in drywall. It offers versatility and precision, making it suitable for creating circular or irregular openings. When equipped with the right blade, a jigsaw can swiftly and cleanly cut through drywall, making it a good choice for DIY projects.

Yes, you can mount a TV on plaster walls—as long as you attach it to the studs. Alternatively, you can use toggle bolts, molly bolts, or another type of hardware that’s strong enough to support a TV. 

If you aren’t comfortable with this type of project, you can hire a pro. The cost of mounting a TV to a plaster wall ranges from $25 to $600 (or more), depending on the TV’s weight, size, and other factors.

If the holes in the plaster are small, you can fill them with layers of patching plaster until they’re filled. After it dries, you can sand the plaster and paint over it. If the hole is much larger, consider using bonding plaster first and then a layer of patching plaster, completing the process with sanding and a layer of paint.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.
