"Joel R at OCS Contracting was courteous, kind, helpful, knowledgeable, and great to talk to! He helped answer my questions and give great advice. One of the reasons I am so excited about working at Lowes is because the people are so positive, helpful, and supportive. They genuinely love what they do and are passionate about helping others with their home improvement projects. For me, the ad I saw on IG captured this: positivity & commitment to completing a project and doing it well. Thank you again, for a fantastic first impression of OCS Contracting!"

"Very prompt, professional, and repaired two barn door runners. One needed a lot straightening and patching. He did an awesome job. Very reasonable price, too. Highly recommend him and I will be using him in the future for some other repairs."

Customers say: Quality work

"Ryan gave me a quote AND he COMMITTED TO A DATE & TIME over the phone. I asked him to text me at work so I could come home, and be there when he started the work, which he did. HE WAS THERE ON TIME and finished the work in the quoted time. I have added him to my FAVORITES and will use him again. If you are looking for someone dependable, that values YOUR time as much as he does his time, you might want to give Ryan a call."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.

New plaster must be fully dry and cured before painting. The drying time for plaster ranges from 1 to 4 hours, but the curing process can take more than five days, depending on various factors, including humidity levels, temperature, the amount of plaster used, and airflow in the area. You should always apply primer before painting plaster.

You can put drywall mud over paint to even out the surface or entirely resurface it. Sand the surface with 280-grit sandpaper, vacuum the debris and dust with a shop vac, and clean it with a slightly damp cloth. Allow the surface to dry. Apply drywall primer, especially if you’re skim-coating an entire wall. Apply the right type of drywall mud over the surface and smooth it with a trowel. Allow the layer to cure fully, then sand it before applying another layer or painting it.

Plaster is denser, harder, and more porous than drywall, so it absorbs moisture differently. This means you’ll often need more prep work, such as thorough sanding, patching, and priming with a high-quality bonding primer. Additionally, you may need more coats of paint to achieve even coverage. While the process takes more time, it helps ensure a durable and professional-looking result.
