"I hired Andy and First West Construction in January 2020 to fix a poor start to a complete basement renovation by a previous contractor. I pointed out everything wrong that I knew and Andy and his main carpenter, Julio, found many more things wrong. We listed them all and Andy quoted me a very fair price to finish the entire project within five weeks which included concrete floor leveling, fixing wood framing, insulation, drywall, painting, trim, cabinet installation and flooring installation. The schedule of workers was Monday through Friday 9-5 but that didn't always happen. Sometimes they needed their workers on their other projects but also waiting for subcontractors caused slight delays. The project took about 11 weeks in all. I appreciated all the advice Andy and Julio provided. They are very professional and adaptable. They want the customer to be happy and pleased with the work and that causes less stress. They won't charge you extra for every little thing. They bought most supplies and I reimbursed them. Twice I generated long lists of little items that needed to be resolved with the project and they got them done within days. It wasn't great that a pile of the project's garbage was left outside our back door for a month; they didn't have a place to dump it, I guess. It was a small price to pay for a great finished product...a beautiful finished basement. Rodrigo, Douglas, Juan and their other workers were courteous, professional and usually highly skilled. I highly recommend this company for a home remodel, renovation or construction. Their work is very high quality."

"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!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

It is more difficult to drywall a ceiling than it is to drywall a wall, but not so hard that DIYers can’t tackle it. One of the main issues with hanging drywall on your ceiling is getting it into place. Drywall isn’t light so, if you are hanging full drywall panels, you will need at least two (it’s better with more) people to hold the panel while you drill it into the ceiling as a single piece can weigh between 40 and 60 pounds and will need to be held in place for up to 10 minutes.

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.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

Yes, you can mount a TV on plaster walls—as long as you attach it to the studs. Alternatively, you can use toggle bolts, molly bolts, or another type of hardware that’s strong enough to support a TV. 

If you aren’t comfortable with this type of project, you can hire a pro. The cost of mounting a TV to a plaster wall ranges from $25 to $600 (or more), depending on the TV’s weight, size, and other factors.

While it’s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.
