"Don is very professional, honest and dependable. He returned my calls and he always followed through from the beginning to the end of the project. I recommend him for multiple projects. He was willing to do something as small as lightning to changing and upgrading my faucet."

"Zeb and his assistants did an excellent job repairing 2 ceilings- one was a drywall ceiling in our entryway, and one was a textured, plaster ceiling, which was a big job, and complicated, and had to be done "just right", with the proper texturing. These ceilings are in an historic, 1922 building, and Zeb did an excellent job. He always turns up on time, and is reliable and trustworthy, and took the time to think everything through, and do the job right. I highly recommend him!"

"We recently hired T & S Precision Painting to paint our finished basement, and the results were absolutely fantastic. The ceiling was painted a matte black and the walls a neutral grey and the transformation is stunning. The contrast between the black ceiling and grey walls gives the entire space a sophisticated, modern look, far beyond what we imagined. From start to finish, the painter was punctual, professional, and incredibly detail oriented. They took great care to prep the space properly, ensuring clean lines and a flawless finish and they protected everything thoroughly and left no mess behind. Their expertise and suggestions really showed their professionalism and expertise. If you're looking for a painter who delivers high-quality results with a professional touch, we highly recommend T & S Precision Painting We couldn’t be happier with the outcome!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

To hide drywall edges, you need to properly apply drywall tape and multiple layers of joint compound. These materials hide the seams between drywall sheets and fill the holes from drywall screws, leaving behind a smooth, flat finish to paint over. Apply joint compound smoothly, and finish the job by sanding the walls to make sure you fully hide drywall edges and other imperfections.

To maintain plaster walls, inspect them regularly for cracks and seal them early. Clean the walls by dusting regularly or using a gentle, damp cloth. It's also important to avoid moisture exposure. Repainting as needed will help maintain the wall's appearance and longevity.

A common cause of separation between a wall and the ceiling is truss lift—this can happen to the ceiling of rooms directly under the attic when the seasons change and wood building materials dry out, shrink, and shift. Roof trusses often dry out at different speeds, and if the bottom pieces dry out faster than the top pieces, they can shrink and pull the attached drywall away from ceilings and walls, causing cracks. Fortunately, truss lift is only a cosmetic problem, not a structural problem, and you can fix it by separating the ceiling drywall from the roof trusses, and patching the cracks.

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.
