"I recently hired Mark Paulos Painting LLC to paint my condo, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the results! From start to finish, Mark was professional, detail-oriented, and truly went above and beyond what was expected. In addition to the painting, he handled drywall repairs that came out flawlessly — you would never know there was any damage. The finished product looks absolutely beautiful, and the quality of his work exceeded my expectations. Mark was reliable, easy to communicate with, and clearly takes great pride in his craftsmanship. My condo looks like a brand-new space, and I have him to thank for that. I would not hesitate to hire Mark Paulos Painting LLC again and will absolutely be recommending him to friends and family. If you’re looking for a painter who does the job right and then some, look no further!"

"Clint Wallace completed a full master bathroom renovation at our house. He did a great job and was a pleasure to work with. There were a few unanticipated complications as the bathroom had not been touched for 40 years. Clint dealt with all of them with a great attitude and professionalism. We are happy with the finiahed work every day and will use Clint for future work."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Plaster provides a durable, soundproof, and moisture-resistant finish compared to drywall.

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.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

Yes, wainscoting is installed directly over drywall. However, ensure the drywall is in good shape since it will support the wainscoting. If the drywall has issues, such as holes, mold, or mildew, repair them before installing the wainscoting. Alternatively, you can install a plywood substrate before attaching the trim.
