"Excellent customer service. Bob called shortly after my request for a quote. He asked a fair price and was able to take care of my job the following day. He completed the work quickly and correctly. I would call him again for any other handy man jobs I had. He showed up when he said he would. Good experience."

"Dale did a fantastic job touching up our home and repairing the drywall in our bathroom. We would highly recommend him. His rates were less than half the price that Paint Genies quoted me. The only small complaint we would have is that we made a check out to J&D painting and he informed us that he didn't have a buisness checking account (which we found odd for someone who says they are licensed and bonded). We had to rip up that check and write him a different one in his name. Either way, he did a great job and we would have him back in a heartbeat if we needed him."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

You can paint over plaster, but repair any damage to the plaster first, or the paint will crack and bubble. You should also prepare the surface of the plaster to accept paint, which gives your paint job the best chance of looking good and lasting a long time. Before applying the color you want, apply a coat or two of primer. Additionally, use latex paint, and choose a latex paint with a satin finish for areas with dampness, like bathrooms.

The cost to skim coat drywall is $1.15 to $1.35 per square foot. Most of the cost is labor, for the necessary skills to apply the skim coat with precision using high-quality tools. This is a job better left to the professionals for the best outcomes.

Choose a drill bit that is the size of the screws of the anchors you will use. You aren’t drilling through metal or concrete—hopefully—so any standard twist, wooden or all-purpose drill bit will work fine. It’s also important to have a screwdriver capable of drilling through the drywall and into the stud. The good news is most available drills, even the older ones, can do this with no issue.

Cracks, holes, water damage, and dents from heavy equipment often require repair.
