We are independent contractors capable of handling almost any of your home needs from framing and drywall to demo, flooring and roofing and much more. We look forward to creating a long lasting relationship for all of your home improvement needs.
"Everything seemed to be going well, until it didn't. Painting wasn't finished and globs of paint were left on walls and there were a bunch of drippings on the baseboard. The wood flooring, tiles, walls, and some doors were damaged and not fixed. When asked to come back and fix the problem, Jay proceeded to flip a switch and bully/verbally attack the disabled individuals of the home, making comments about themselves and their dogs. He made comments regarding what the animals are being fed and their lack of exercise, even though the one has an autoimmune disease, the other is 16 with one eye, and the third is mentally disabled. He then proceeded to block the client on messages and social media platforms."

"The process was smooth and quick! Roger contacted me the same day I inquired, was at my house giving me a quote the next day, Sunday, and began work the following day. His estimated 3 day repair was done in 2, and the fact that he started on a holiday Monday meant I barely missed any use of my work from home office, which is one of the rooms he worked in. The repairs were done exactly as I’d hoped. I only wish I had done this earlier. I never expected the process to be so easy. Definitely use Nickel City Repair. You don’t have to live with eyesores you know you will never get to yourself."

Skip trowel texture remains currently relevant, particularly in homes with Mediterranean, Spanish, or rustic design elements. Though minimalist smooth walls have gained popularity in contemporary homes, skip trowel offers practical benefits beyond aesthetics by effectively concealing wall imperfections. Unlike popcorn ceilings that have fallen from favor, skip trowel's subtle dimensionality continues to appeal to homeowners seeking character and visual interest in their living spaces.
Neither texture is inherently superior—they serve different aesthetic preferences. Skip trowel creates a hand-crafted, artisanal appearance with more pronounced variations, while knockdown provides a more uniform, subtly textured surface. Skip trowel typically costs between $1.25 and $2.00 per square foot, similar to knockdown's price range. Your choice should depend on your desired look: skip trowel for a more distinctive, Old World character or knockdown for a more consistent, contemporary texture.
When walls remain structurally sound but cosmetically flawed, skim coating generally costs less than complete replacement. New drywall installation ranges from $1.50 to $3.50 per square foot, making it substantially more expensive than surface treatments. However, when walls show significant damage, moisture issues, or potential hazardous materials in older textures, replacement often proves more economical long-term. Evaluate your specific wall conditions carefully before deciding.
For a 1000-square-foot project, professional skip trowel application typically costs between $1,250 and $2,000 based on the standard rate of $1.25 to $2.00 per square foot. This estimate assumes your drywall is already installed, taped, and mudded. If your project requires these preliminary steps or wall repairs, additional costs will apply. Always request a detailed estimate that accounts for your specific project requirements and existing wall conditions.
