"Josue is one of the most professional contractors I have ever dealt with. He was always prompt and quickly addressed concerns we had during the process. When they were unable to lift the drywall through the window on the 3rd floor, they cut it down and carried it up. They glued all their drywall to the studs to reinforce it and make sure there are never any nail pops. If there are nail pops their services come backed by a warranty. We had some crazy angles on the roof line but after looking at it, you couldnâ t believe how good it looks! If I was doing my project over again, I would 100% us VDC again!"

"We had to reschedule once due to rain but the company followed up to reschedule quickly. The Handyman arrived on time, was professional and competent. He asked if we were providing the siding, which we had already told the company that we wanted them to provide. The Handyman quickly matched and purchased the siding needed. His work to replace the siding was of good quality and quickly done. On the inside, he quickly fixed three doors that would not close correctly; again the work was done efficiently and was well done. We discussed the ramp and the Handyman promised to get back to us with the cost and design. We are awaiting that information, but it has only been a few days. Overall I was quite pkleased with the quality and efficiency of the work done."

"Wes and his helpers are very skilled and courteous. I had major flooding in my lower level and needed to replace some of my drywall, floorboards, and re-paint. Everything is well done and he took great care with containing dust, etc from the repairs then did an excellent job with clean up as well. I also asked Wes to come by and help my Mom with a couple of water issues due  to the recent cold weather. He was able to come on the fly and quickly replaced water pipes that had broken, stopping the water flow. He also has great advice on any home repair you may be thinking of and will look for ways to cut costs but not quality. He is punctual , dependable, and very competitive in his pricing as well."

"They were responsive to initial call, showed up when said, then nothing for a while, we had to call them a few times.  Then, they came back and did the work.  We were a little disappointed that they did not do the dry wall around the new installation.  They had told us they would do "everything."  so, now we are having to have the drywall done.  Also, the wall of the bath surround was not in true - a little off, making it hard to do the drywall.  Just little grumbles which I am sure we will overcome.
Otherwise, they were quick, efficient, clean and tidy.  They cleaned up after themselves.  A few weeks later, found a small crack in the new bathtub.  Nothing major, can be fixed, but was a little disappointing to see that."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can put paneling over textured walls. Of course, this will come down to personal preference and the type of paneling you want to install. From board-and-batten to shiplap and wainscoting, there are plenty of options to choose from.

Plaster can be a difficult DIY to master, especially if you plan to plaster an entire room, rather than patch a small area. Before you begin a plaster DIY project, you need to know which tools and type of plaster to use. It's also important to know how to prepare the surface and apply the plaster for a smooth finish. If that all sounds like a lot of work, you may prefer hiring a local plaster repair contractor to do the job.

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.

There are several things you should not do when installing drywall. Common mistakes include: adding too many screws, over-sanding, not adding backing support, and installing drywall unevenly. You also should avoid screwing into the same place twice, installing Sheetrock with tapered edges on the outside, and making too many joints.

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.
