"Beau and his partner, Daniel did a wonderful job removing wallpaper, painting a master bedroom and bath, and repairing and painting the ceilings. They were both were very polite and efficient. Daniel was kind enough to do a couple of extra things for me that I needed help with, and contacted me the next day to make sure that everything was taken care of. I was pleased with their work overall. Very nice and ambitious young men."

"I hired Badger Custom Service, a father‑and‑son small business, to replace an older very difficult kitchen sink and was highly satisfied with their work. They arrived at the scheduled time, provided clear explanations at each step, and demonstrated deep product and installation knowledge. Their workmanship was meticulous—the sink sits perfectly, connections are secure, and the finishing is clean and precise. I subsequently hired them again for handyman services, and the experience reaffirmed my initial impression. They were punctual, knowledgeable, helpful, and unfailingly courteous. They proactively identified minor issues, offered practical, cost‑effective solutions, and went above and beyond to ensure everything functioned as expected. I could not be happier with the results. Based on these experiences, I recommend Badger Custom Service without reservation for kitchen plumbing installations and general handyman work."

"Great job by Cesar! Very professional and great communication. Both my bedroom and bathroom look great! Always cleaned up after he left and vacuumed. The job took three days and it was well worth it. Cesar went way out of his way to fix things that needed to get done even without asking. Thank you Cesar"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Whether you need a drywall anchor depends on the specifics of your project, particularly what you're hanging and where. You do not need a drywall anchor if you can screw or nail the object directly into a wooden stud, as the wood provides sufficient support and stability. However, if there are no studs in the location where you plan to hang the item, you should use drywall anchors to ensure it is securely supported. For very lightweight objects, like small pictures, adhesive picture hanging strips can be a suitable alternative to anchors.

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.

The age of your home can clue you in to whether you have plaster or drywall ceilings. Homes built after the ‘70s are more likely to have drywall ceilings and walls, while older homes have plaster. You can also do the pushpin test: A pushpin will go into drywall, whereas it’s much harder to push one into a plaster wall. If you’re still unsure, ask a drywall professional to let you know which type of ceilings and walls you have.

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.

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.
