"Bruce and Seth did an excellent job painting my house from prep to paint to clean-up. They not only paint but do needed repairs. Most painters just want to paint and move on. Bruce gives a warranty on his work, and his price is very reasonable. I plan on hiring him to paint another house next year. I recommend Bruce W. Nichols Painting whole heartedly."

"Less than 24 hours after discovering my fence had partially fallen down after a storm it is fixed. New post installed and panel boards put back up securely. Very prompt and professional team, thank you so much! To go from call to estimate to fixed in 8 hours? Amazing!"

"Jesse and his crew did an overall great job from start to finish - prep (all floors were covered well), work (repairing drywall to prepare for painting was A+, and they even painted some spots that I forgot), and clean up. I appreciated that Jesse asked me if I was satisfied numerous times along the way. I would hire them again!"

"The work was finished nice and very clean. The price is very competitive. Come to work onsite as planned. One thing to improve is communication. I called several times , voice message is full and can not leave message. Emails communication is fast. I had one mis communication with them on the emails for setting up work schedule. Overall I would reccomend them and satisfied with their work."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The best tool for skim coating drywall is a skim coating blade, which can smooth out joint compound in wide stretches. While you could use a smaller drywall knife for skim coating, the smaller size means it’ll take longer to smooth out each section. Instead, consider investing in a skim coating blade for the quickest application.

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.

Certain drywall textures, like sand and sometimes popcorn, can be smoothed by applying skim coats, sanding the walls, or chipping away the texture. However, it’s worth considering removing the texture and starting with a blank canvas. Smoothing textured walls requires a lot of sandpaper and elbow grease and can take longer than just outright removing the texture.

A local drywall contractor can texture your drywall for you. Drywall contractors are a better choice than general handy people because the contractors have a lot of experience working with drywall mud. The process is somewhat of an art thanks to the complexity of working with the mud, so call in a drywall pro who knows what they’re doing.

You should stagger drywall sheets to help prevent cracking. The joints between drywall sheets are the weak spots, so if you install drywall with seams aligned, you’ll create weak lines that run across the length of the wall and extend from floor to ceiling. But when you stagger drywall, the solid sections of panels will support the joints. This can prevent seams from cracking or separating due to fluctuating temperature and humidity, vibrations from movement inside the home, and gravity.
