Happy New Year! A Brevard County Contractors 2014 year in review
December 31, 2014 By Paul Peck
I just wanted to say Happy New Year to all my past, present and future customers and fellow contractors. It's been a very busy year and I've worked with some great people throughout the year. Looking over my 2014 year in review, It seemed like the economy here in Brevard County was on the upswing with lot's of activity in the residential real estate and existing homeowner markets. Which included a bounty of renovation, remodel, home improvement and repair contracts throughout 2014. For that I Am very grateful. I completed many interior and exterior painting projects, stucco repair, pool deck repair, ceiling repair, drywall repair, texture matching and even soundproofing from Melbourne to Viera, Melbourne Beach, Suntree, Cocoa Beach, Satellite Beach, Indian Harbour Beach, Indialantic, Cape Canaveral, Cocoa and Merritt Island here on the Space Coast. Here's just a few of … [Read More...]
Brevard County Water Damage Drywall Repair
August 8, 2019 By Paul Peck
On this Brevard County water damage repair project video, I show you the whole process of doing a water damage drywall repair from start to finish. When the plumbing leak happened the homeowners cut out the area of drywall that had been damaged by the water. After they did that they realized that it might be a little bit bigger project than they really could handle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzG8VNXT_TM In My Youtube video I'll show you how I do the drywall finishing on this water damage drywall repair from start to finish. There is also a link within in the video of me applying a orange peel texture to this same repair. 1) The first thing I needed to do was square up the drywall because when they cut it out it was kind of crooked and just passed a couple studs. 2) Next, I added a couple of one by four furring strips to be able to attach the new drywall too. 3) I … [Read More...]

Drywall paper tape joints cracking and falling down?
September 25, 2018 By Paul Peck
This type of problem is very common on interior and exterior drywall ceilings. Over time the paper drywall tape begins to crack and fall down due to the heat and humidity from our harsh Florida climate. The extreme weather changes cause the wood framing to expand and contract on a daily basis in turn causing just enough movement of your ceiling to crack and pop the paper tape joints. Especially if the ceiling was nailed or not enough screws were added during the drywall installation process when your home was built. Due to the drywall crew trying to move to fast! That's why I always re-secure the drywall joints with screws and check the entire ceiling to make sure it was secured properly during the construction phase. A lot of times the ceiling needs to be completely re-screwed. The paper tape joints were cracking and starting to fall down on this pool patios drywall … [Read More...]

Knockdown textured ceiling bubbling while painting lanai in Rockledge, Fl.
April 6, 2018 By Paul Peck
Textured patio ceiling bubbling, blistered or falling down? I've seen this issue quite a few times over the years on knockdown, skip trowel, orange peel and popcorn textured exterior drywall ceilings. In this video I'm scraping the areas where the knockdown texture and paint had bubbled. So today while on an complete exterior repaint in Rockledge, Fl. I was painting the first coat of exterior latex paint on the lanai ceiling, when the knockdown texture on the exterior drywall pool patio ceiling started to come off on to my roller nap. The ceiling texture had bubbled in two separate areas. It was as if the texture itself had lost any adhesion and all that was left after peeling the texture off was bare drywall which was dusty just like the back of the texture sheet that I removed. I'm not sure if the ceiling was painted to soon before the knockdown texture had dried completely back … [Read More...]
Interior Painting 8 colors and 1 townhouse in Melbourne,Florida
February 10, 2019 By Paul Peck
I just finished up this interior painting project in the Suntree/Viera area of Melbourne. The townhouse is 2200 sq.ft. We painted the entire place: baseboards, casing, crown, stair trim, spindles, all doors, bifolds, ceilings, walls and three accent walls. It was unoccupied and all of the carpeting will be replaced after the painting is completed. We used a local paint manufacturers paint called Richards Paint. They're at the top of my the list when it comes to paint quality in my book.

Barry the cable guy stepped thru my popcorn ceiling!
May 30, 2019 By Paul Peck
One of my customers recently got more than cable tv and wireless internet, when Barry the cable guy went to run a couple new cables. Barry accidently stepped on the drywall ceiling from the backside while maneuvering across the trusses up in the attic over the living room hall. Mr. Jones said he heard a very loud Crunch and Thud. When he went to see what had happened, Barry's leg was hanging out of the popcorn ceiling! Drywall and insulation was all over the floor. Thankfully Barry was not injured. This is where I come into the picture. Mr. Jones sent an estimate request through my website which went to my phone. After speaking with Mr. Jones, I went out to have a look and secure the drywall ceiling. Once the cable company ok'd the estimate, I went back and repaired the attic step thru and re-sprayed a popcorn texture blending it into the existing popcorn ceiling. Here's a few of … [Read More...]
Pool Patio Ceiling Repair – Tape Joints Coming Down – Merritt Island
August 31, 2018 By Paul Peck
This Project Blog is about a exterior pool patio ceiling repair on a home in the Indian Bay sub division Merritt Island, FL. This type of problem is very common on exterior ceilings. Over time the paper drywall tape begins to fail. The heat and humidity from the Florida climate and the added moisture in the air around a pool cause the tape to crack and start falling down. Over the years I have perfected the technique and best materials to use on these types of exterior ceilings. 1) Cover and protect the pool/patio deck. 2) We removed all of the paper tape from all of the drywall seams. 3) I like to re secure the drywall at all of the seams, just in case the drywall wasn't secured properly during the drywall installation phase when the home was built. 4) Install fiberglass mesh drywall tape to all of the exposed seams (much more exterior friendly than the drywall paper tape). 5) … [Read More...]

Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars
Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars
The prices at Peck Drywall and Painting are very reasonable. I'm kind of picky but I would give them A's.
I have a stucco home that needed painting and some minor stucco repair. Paul Peck came out to give an estimate in person at my earliest convenience and was very knowledgable and professional. His estimate was competitive with the four other estimates I received and he was able to start the job within a short period of time. He was present each day and his crew is very skilled and courteous. They worked around inclement weather and kept me informed of any issues or schedule adjustments. I am absolutely delighted with the finished result and would not hesitate to recommend this company to other Angie's List members.
Called Pecks right before selling my home. House was 2 years old and had some stucco cracks and fading on outside and picture holes in wall on inside. Got an estimate fast, it was a good price to do everything I wanted and the house looks better than it did when I bought it new once Paul was done. Definitely highly recommend if you need any drywall, painting or repair work completed
Member Comments: The job went very well except for a few delays due to weather. Peck arrived as scheduled and began with a pressure cleaning of the entire house and also pulling the soil back from around the bottom edge of the house to allow for paint application down to the ground level. A 6 foot verticle section of rotted wood trim board was replaced at one of the house corners. A piece of trim board was also added around a window. Both of these trim pieces were installed very well and blended in perfectly with the existing wood trim.
Three coats of paint were applied to the entire house; a sealer coat then 2 top coats. The paint came out beautifully with fine attention to detail. The work site was cleaned up every day.
I want to express my great appreciation for a job very well done when you and your team fixed the badly damaged popcorn ceiling of my condo in Cocoa Beach. I am impressed with the perfection of the job, the professionalism of your team and the great price of the work. Your work is totally consistent with the advertising in your webpage. Definitely, I will call you for my future projects.
