OT: Drywall

[SWSaltwater]

Hi,

Anyone good or a pro at applying texture to drywall? I built a porch and have a deadline of saturday to finish texture and paint of the cieling (50x10). If you know anyone with some availability I will hire them.

Thanks
Rob

How big is the area that needs to be textured? you have to be done by saturday or saturday is your last day? what type of texture you looking for?

approx 50x10 area hand texture, I did a 10x10 area and realize I suck at it.............I have a party sat night and would like to paint by sat morning latest. I have an airless sprayer so once the texture is done its about 1 hour work to paint.

Do you have all the drywall mud already? Where is this project?

 

[hondadude2k5]

Reason I ask is because I was on a texture crew for Artistic Drywall for a long time. If I can squeeze in I could probably help you.

I am on the Southwest side of town out on valencia by ryan field. I have some mud but will by some more all purpose mud. If you have a better trowel great, if not I can buy one.

I have no idea where that is. Farthest south I find myself south is the occasional trip to yor store. I have to take the kids to the doctor at 1:30 and then drop them off back at the babysitter. I could probably be there by 2:30 at the earliest. Take maybe 2 hours to texture. It would take 2 boxes of mud to do a 50x10 ceiling and I would need a nock down blade. Only things I am missing.

Hey someone else on the SW side of Tucson LoL.

You know, Hondadude, our drywall has never been repaired from the last flood. Would you be interested in giving me an estimate sometime? Being plugged in to the reef community, you could have a thriving side- business!

 

[hondadude2k5]

Did you get your ceiling done Rob? I have thought about it Linda. Maybe I could come by sometime and take a look at your walls.

 

[SWSaltwater]

I got it just under half done. My method has improved a bit with the water down advice. Thanks! Its not just finding the time to do it.
