"the tech milled around for about 45 minute with half the time he was outside of my home by his truck. The tech at the end of the 45 minutes reported he could not locate the problem. he told me that he would have to break into my wall and wire my outlets to a near by light switch. He also stated he could do this for $395 plus parts. He also stated that this work would take 3 to 4 to complete and I would be responsible for the repairs to the drywall. This repair did not sound correct. outlets should not be put on the line with the switch. the tech took my payment for doing absolutely nothing. i was not left with a receipt after payment. I called this company minutes after the tech departed. I was informed that the tech would be contacted and they would get back to me. Two weeks later, three text and two additional phones this company has not responded"

"It went pretty smoothly. One of the best contractors I have had from Choice Home Warranty. Century Restoration Maintenance, LLC and owner PeAyre Gardner were awesome. I have had CHW several years and I wanted to cancel because every thing we called about they denied the claim. My husband decided to keep them. I was pleasantly surprised that they fixed both the leak and drywall in the ceiling from the leak. I did have to provide extra pics from the leak before it was approved as initially the claim was denied."

"He was supposed to be and out by October 10th because I had a painter scheduled for the 13th of October.  My painter even gave him a couple more days to get done and that did not help.  The painter had to try and work behind him as he finished each part of the job.  He even waited until the painter had his drop cloths down and started sanding the walls.  He spent a day putting the basement door in instead of getting the work done upstairs so the painter could paint.  The painter had to finally leave and wait until the work was done to come back and finish painting.  There were days when he was supposed to be here and he never showed.  If you choose to hire him make sure you explain to him that you do not use the foul language that he does when he is in someone's home.

"The initial consultation was scheduled online and the company was very prompt to respond and schedule a home visit.  They arrived as scheduled and were very detailed in explaining options.  They also came when scheduled for follow up visits for measurements, inspections, etc.  Some personal matters resulted in me delaying the start of the work by several months and the company was very understanding and willing to work with me.  Once the work was actually scheduled to start, the installer arrived as planned.  He was professional and diligent in performing the work, which took about 2 weeks to finish.  As the first phase of the demolition started, he identified some things that could be done to open the main room up, which were good suggestions that were accepted.  He also performed other repairs that were identified along the way, like unforseen cracks in walls that he patched, and rotting wood that needed to be replaced to install the new windows.  The cost estimate that was initially quoted was the true final cost, in spite of the little adjustments that had to be made along the way.  There were no issues with the county inspections, which they coordinated at each phase.  They did not disrupt my neighbors as the work progressed and cleaned up at the completion of the job.  About half way through the job, I received a call from the representative that had set up the initial contract just to check in and see how things were going.  I really appreciated that.  The entire Remodel USA team, from the initial consultation, to the delivery of the materials, and the actual installation, was well communicated and coordinated.  I would definitely consider using this company again for remodeling and renovation work.  The cost was a little higher than a traditional remodel with drywall installation, etc. but the basement system is of the highest quality and well worth the extra cost, plus it comes with a warranty.

Drywall questions, answered by experts

A nail in drywall cannot hold very much—usually only a few pounds. A nail in a stud can add support and hold around 20 pounds. If you are trying to hang something heavier, get some help from drywall anchors—toggle bolts are very strong and able to withstand more weight.

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.

On average, drywall installation costs around $2,000, with a typical range of $400 to $6,000, including materials and labor. The final price depends on several factors. The most significant is the size of the area, as many contractors charge per square foot. Other cost factors include the complexity of the job (e.g., cutting around multiple windows and doors, corners, or curved walls), accessibility, location, the thickness of the drywall, the height of the room, and the desired level of finish. The level of finish can range from simply hanging the drywall to taping and mudding the seams and painting the walls.

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.

If you’re installing new drywall, you may need to skim coat the drywall first for a smooth finish and to allow the primer to adhere to the wall. It’s only necessary if there are imperfections in your drywall due to issues with the studs or improper drywall installation. If you’re refreshing existing walls, you may want to skim coat if there are imperfections across the wall. As an alternative, you can repair your drywall and sand it for a smooth finish before painting.
