I'm excited to introduce Episode 160 of The Drywall Podcast. This week, we're sitting down with a true powerhouse in the industry: Stefano Zanchi of On Board Drywall. Stefano is the embodiment of the "never say die" spirit. He walked away from the trade once—literally leaving his boots and hardhat behind with a sign that read "Hasta La Vista"—to try his hand at banking. But the corporate grind couldn't contain his drive, and it ultimately pushed him to return and build the successful business he runs today. We dive deep into his journey, his "clean and concise" social media strategy, and how he turned a setback into a massive comeback.

Get ready for some serious drywall drama as Eric G and John Dudley sit down with Ted Speers from The Patch Boys. We're diving right into the nitty-gritty of drywall repair and why finding a trustworthy contractor is like hunting for a unicorn in a haystack. Ted spills the beans on the art and science of drywalling, and how DIY attempts often end in a “what have I done?!” panic. We'll also explore the unique challenges of dealing with textures, the absurdities of home repairs, and why sometimes it's better to just call in the pros before your walls start looking like a Picasso painting gone wrong. So grab your headphones and let's patch things up, because we're about to make drywalling fun—yes, you heard that right! When it comes to drywall, everyone thinks they can tackle it, right? I mean, how hard can it be? Just slap up some sheets, tape it, mud it, and voilà! Spoiler alert: it's not that simple. In this jam-packed episode of Around the House, Eric G and John Dudley welcome Ted Speers from The Patch Boys to discuss the ins and outs of drywall repair. We dive deep into the common misconceptions about DIY drywall projects. Ted shares hilarious anecdotes about all the brave souls who attempt to fix their drywall issues only to end up in a mess that even Picasso would be jealous of. You know those folks who watch a couple of YouTube videos and think they're pros? Yeah, they usually end up giving Ted a call when their 'art project' goes horribly wrong. The guys dissect the art versus science of drywall, emphasizing the skill and finesse required to achieve that perfect finish. You might not think it, but matching textures and dealing with the dreaded popcorn ceiling is an art form that takes years to master. So buckle up, grab a snack, and get ready to learn why hiring a professional might just save you from a world of drywall woe. Let's be real – nobody loves dealing with drywall unless you're Ted, who practically oozes passion for it. In our latest chat, Ted lays down the law about why you should never trust a handyman who claims to be a drywall expert. Sure, they might know how to fix your leaky sink, but once they get their hands on drywall, it's a whole different ballgame. The trio explores the importance of hiring qualified professionals for drywall work, especially after plumbing disasters. Ted gives us the lowdown on how many of his jobs stem from botched DIY attempts or haphazard handyman work. With a chuckle, he explains how the majority of his customers are those do-it-yourselfers who thought they could save a few bucks and ended up creating a drywall horror story. We also touch on the critical aspect of customer service in the contracting world. Ted discusses how The Patch Boys prioritize cleanliness and customer experience on every job, ensuring that clients feel valued and respected. Spoiler alert: it's not just about fixing walls; it's about building relationships. If you think drywall is just about slapping up some boards, think again! This episode takes you on a wild ride through the world of drywall with Ted Speers from The Patch Boys. Eric G and John Dudley get right into it, tackling everything from the absurdities of DIY projects to the fine art of matching textures. Seriously, it's like trying to get a cat to take a bath – nearly impossible unless you know what you're doing! Ted shares his insights on the challenges faced by homeowners and the importance of hiring skilled professionals to avoid the pitfalls of DIY disasters. From addressing water leaks to the complexities of texture matching, this episode is a treasure trove of tips and tricks for anyone looking to navigate the often confusing realm of drywall repair. If you've ever wondered why your walls look like a 3rd grader's art project, tune in to discover how professionals bring back the smoothness and finesse your home deserves. Plus, a few laughs along the way as Ted recounts some of the more comedic mishaps he's encountered in his line of...

Why would anyone switch from a prominent position to be a drywaller?  Well, Maykel did just that.  Better known on Instagram as mayktapetech, Maykel started out as an attorney in Cuba to impress his father.  He managed to escape to Toronto but that wasn't the end of his challenges.  He ended up homeless before when he noticed another man speaking Spanish and desperately asked him for help.  That man took Maykel to a church where he took up residence until he could find a way into the construction industry.  Maykel did what it took to make his life amazing and he made some lifelong friends along the way.  He's as loyal as they come and Loves the brand Tape-Tech.  He's the quintessential brand ambassador and you'll see why on this, the 153rd, episode of The Drywall Podcast.   This episode of The Drywall Podcast is brought to you by Muddskip.  Find out more by visiting their website at www.muddskip.com

MY NEWSLETTER - https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeJoin me, Nik (https://x.com/CoFoundersNik), as I interview Jared Kotter (https://x.com/Jaredkotter), the former middle school teacher who accomplished the seemingly impossible: launching a drywall business and scaling it to $1.7 million in revenue in just 10 months!Jared shares the unorthodox approach he took, leveraging his background as a college athlete and LDS missionary to develop unique sales skills. Instead of buying equipment or hiring crews, Jared established a powerful model: acting as an account manager and commissioned salesman for his brother's company, Canvas drywall, earning a 50% split of the net profit.He breaks down how he uses Construction Monitor to source high-end custom homes and reveals his secret method for closing deals at three times the average rate. This strategy involves doing things that don't scale, namely, showing up in person to measure jobs, which allows him to build immediate trust with the home builder.We also discuss why he views this successful venture as a stepping stone and how leveraging your unfair advantage is crucial for entrepreneurial success.Questions This Episode Answers:How can you achieve $1.7 million in revenue with no experience in a trade industry?What is the simple sales secret sauce that leads to a 3x closing rate in construction?How do you find and approach high-quality, high-margin construction leads for new builds?What is a fair net profit split when selling and managing fulfillment for a service business partner?How does focusing on good fulfillment immediately create recurring revenue in the contracting world?__________________________Love it or hate it, I'd love your feedback.Please fill out this brief survey with your opinion or email me at nik@cofounders.com with your thoughts.__________________________MY NEWSLETTER: https://nikolas-newsletter-241a64.beehiiv.com/subscribeSpotify: https://tinyurl.com/5avyu98yApple: https://tinyurl.com/bdxbr284YouTube: https://tinyurl.com/nikonomicsYT__________________________This week we covered:00:00 – Intro: From teacher to $1.7M drywall business00:42 – What is a drywall business & how Jared earns 50% profit02:30 – Leaving teaching to build financial freedom05:40 – Early side hustles before launching drywall07:05 – How the drywall model works with almost no labor08:10 – Finding high-end clients through construction permits10:30 – Cold-calling builders & landing first deals12:55 – Managing projects and understanding the 50/50 split15:15 – Using drywall as a stepping stone to bigger goals22:30 – Prepping for launch & funding startup with Christmas lights27:15 – Tracking leads manually and learning sales discipline29:20 – Secret to closing 3x more deals: meeting clients on-site39:10 – Final lesson: Find your unfair advantage and start

Eli has a special super power.  It's the constant inspiration he's received from his father after having lost his leg in a car accident.  We talk about that and how his father continues to work despite his injury.  We also discuss how Eli has faced his fears in recent days and has conjured up the courage to put himself out there on social media.  We also discuss training "the new guy" and how that experience has helped him grow also.  I love having younger people on the show and Eli certainly falls into that category at just 23 years of age.  This is a good one and I know you're going to like it.   This episode of The Drywall Podcast is brought to you by Muddskip.  You can find out more information about Muddskip by visiting www.muddskip.com

Derrick is one of those guests that is just plain easy to talk to.  The conversation flows and he's also extremely knowledgeable about drywall and the tools we use to accomplish drywall.  He's the owner of East Coast Drywall Tools and they specialize in selling tools and repairing tools.  We talk about Derrick coming up in the trade working for his father's company Wilko back in the day and how he's always had a fascination with fixing and just being around the tools.  In his spare time he collects antique tools and knows just about everyone in the industry.  This is Derricks second appearance on the show and I hope it isn't his last.  Sit back and enjoy a journey into the world of automatic tools on this, the 147th, episode of The Drywall Podcast.   This episode and all the episodes in the month of September are brought to you by East Coast Drywall Tools.  Find out more by visiting their website at www.eastcoastdrywall.com

On this episode of TDP we welcome Daniel Osborne back to the show for his second appearance.  Daniels firs show was fantastic and still holds a special place in my heart.  His first appearance was all the way back in July of 2022, 3 years ago and we discuss his drive to set the standard and why being impeccable is important to him.  This episode we talk about his involvement with religion, the discipline it takes to learn the piano, and asbestos abatement.  We have a lot of laughs and a lot of fun on this, the 142nd, episode of TDP.   This episode was brought to you by AMES.  This month we're highlighting their Venetian plaster trowels.  You can check out the full line now at tapetech.com, or ask your local TapeTech dealer for more info   https://www.canva.com/design/DAGvxWZRaOo/OQgz5LbrfwmK1YdNjnZnmw/edit?utm_content=DAGvxWZRaOo&utm_campaign=designshare&utm_medium=link2&utm_source=sharebutton  

Drywall is one of the most commonly used materials in construction — and one of the most wasteful. It's estimated that more than 10 percent of drywall from new buildings end up in landfills. The material can release harmful gasses, such as hydrogen sulfide, and act as a potential contaminant for groundwater. But two architecture professors at Washington State University’s School of Design and Construction have developed a way to turn this waste into something useful.   Taiji Miyasaka and David Drake have spent years developing and patenting a process to transform drywall scraps into usable building blocks — a substitute for bricks — and fire-resistant wall panels that are both known as Drywall Waste Technology. Made with up to 90 percent drywall waste, WSU estimates that excess material from just 16 new homes could produce enough DWT material to build one tiny home. Miyasaka and Drake’s products have earned international acclaim, winning the AZ Award for Environmental Leadership in Azure magazine’s global design competition.   David Drake joins us to explain how this technology could be a resource in addressing both housing shortages and construction waste.  

We had a chance to catch up with Sunil D'Souza of Drywall Master and what a conversation it was.  From marketing to mastery we covered it all.  We talk a bit about the show Breaking Bad which was filmed in Albuquerque but we quickly shifted over to the history of Tape Master (the predecessor) and how that company was built and sold to AMES.  We talk a lot about sales and the resurrection of Drywall Master into the force that it is today.

In this insightful episode of the Build Show Podcast, host Matt Risinger sits down with Stephanie Dailey—longtime colleague, project manager, and now remote collaborator—to explore what it really takes to build a remote career in the construction industry. Stephanie shares her unconventional path from jobsite coordination in Austin to managing high-performance builds from hundreds of miles away. With candid stories about burnout, family priorities, and the pursuit of flexibility, Matt and Stephanie talk about redefining success in a traditionally hands-on field. From the power of trust and communication to the evolving role of women in construction, this conversation offers valuable takeaways for builders, business owners, and anyone navigating career shifts in a digital age. Real, reflective, and refreshingly honest, this episode is a must-listen for those rethinking how and where meaningful work gets done. Matt's Resources: https://jobsitecodes.com/https://stevendailey.com/ Save the Date for Build Show LIVE 2025 in Dallas, TX: October 16-18, 2025!Don't miss a single episode of Build Show content.

This Podcast Is Episode 635, And It's About The #1 Reason Contractors Lose Clients: Poor Invoicing—And How to Fix It As we celebrate Independence Day and the spirit of hard work and craftsmanship that built our country, it's the perfect time to think about strengthening your construction business, so you have the freedom to grow and succeed. When most contractors consider why they lose clients, they often blame price competition, slow projects, or a client's unrealistic expectations. But in my experience as a construction bookkeeper, one of the most common—and preventable—reasons contractors lose business is poor invoicing practices. I know what you might be thinking: “My craftsmanship speaks for itself; invoicing is just paperwork.” But the truth is that invoices are often the last impression you leave on a client. That impression determines whether you get paid promptly, earn a good review, or ever hear from them again. Here's why poor invoicing costs you clients, how it damages your reputation, and exactly what you can do to fix it starting today. The Hidden Charges of Poor Invoicing Let's unpack what “poor invoicing” looks like in the real world: Surprise Charges – Adding unexpected line items without explanation leads clients to feel blindsided. Even small uncommunicated costs, like a few extra hours of labor or a disposal fee, can make clients doubt your honesty. Late or Sporadic Invoices – Sending invoices weeks (or worse, months) after work is completed sends the message that you're disorganized. It also forces clients to scramble their budgets, and they may start ignoring your emails altogether. Disorganized or Confusing Layouts – Handwritten invoices, crumpled paper, or Word documents with inconsistent formatting look unprofessional. They make it difficult for clients to understand what they owe and why, opening the door to disputes. Lack of Payment Terms – If your invoice doesn't clearly state when payment is due, clients may assume there's no urgency. This leads to late payments, awkward reminders, and unnecessary tension. No Proof of Work Completed – Many clients want to see proof that matches what they agreed to pay for, such as photos of progress, signed change orders, or milestones met. Without these, they might question the final bill. Errors and Omissions – Mistakes in calculations, missing line items, or billing for the wrong amount can destroy trust in an instant. These issues might seem small when you're juggling multiple jobs. Still, they add up quickly and can easily cost you a client's future business or a valuable referral. Why Invoicing is a Marketing Tool, NOT Just a Bill Invoices are more than payment requests—they're a key part of your client experience. Every interaction you have with a client, from the first estimate to the final invoice, contributes to your reputation. Consider this: clients rarely see the hours you put in behind the scenes or the challenges you overcome to finish their project. They do see your invoices, emails, and paperwork. If your administrative side feels sloppy, clients may assume your craftsmanship is, too, even if your work is top-notch. On the other hand, precise, prompt, professional invoices can: Build trust and reinforce your professionalism Encourage faster payments, boosting cash flow Make clients more likely to refer you Lead to glowing online reviews Differentiate yourself from less organized competitors When you treat invoicing as a core part of your marketing—rather than an afterthought—you send a powerful message: you respect your client's time, budget, and peace of mind. How to Fix Poor Invoicing Practices Here are six practical steps you can take immediately to transform your invoicing process—and your client relationships: 1. Use Construction-Specific Invoicing Tools Skip generic templates or handwritten invoices. Invest in software designed for contractors, such as QuickBooks for Contractors or Buildertrend. These tools let you: Create detailed, professional invoices Break down labor, materials, and other costs Track payments and overdue invoices Sync estimates with final invoices for seamless transitions They're designed to handle the complexities of construction work, including progress billing and change orders. Excel works well, too, and we have free downloadable templates here. 2. Invoice Promptly and Consistently Send invoices immediately upon completing milestones or projects. Make it a routine part of your workflow—ideally within 24 hours of finishing a phase of work. Regular, timely invoicing demonstrates to clients that you're organized and serious about your business. Pro tip: Automate invoice scheduling if your software supports it. You can set up progress invoices that are sent automatically at agreed-upon milestones. 3. Break Down the Work Clearly Your invoices should include line items that detail labor hours, materials, subcontractors, and any additional charges. Provide quantities, unit prices, and short descriptions. A transparent invoice gives clients confidence that they're paying for precisely what they approved. For example, instead of: Labor: $5,000 Break it down as: Framing labor (40 hours @ $50/hour): $2,000 Drywall installation labor (30 hours @ $50/hour): $1,500 Finish carpentry labor (30 hours @ $50/hour): $1,500 This clarity prevents misunderstandings and reduces disputes. 4. Include Payment Terms Always include clear payment terms on your invoice, such as: Payment Due: Net 15 (15 days after invoice date) Late Fee: 1.5% per month on overdue balances Ensure that your client has agreed to these terms upfront (in your contract or proposal). Stating them clearly on the invoice eliminates confusion and provides you with a legal basis if payments are delayed. 5. Add Professional Branding Your invoice should include your company logo, consistent fonts, and professional formatting. This isn't just about looking fancy—it reminds clients they're working with a legitimate, established business. Include your contact information, contractor license number, and website to make it easy for clients to reach you with questions or share your info with referrals. 6. Follow Up Politely but Firmly Don't let overdue invoices linger for weeks without action. Set reminders to follow up a few days before the due date and again shortly after if payment has not been received. Your follow-up doesn't have to be aggressive—keep it friendly but firm. For example: Subject: Friendly Reminder: Invoice #2024-015 Due Tomorrow Hi [Client Name], Just a quick reminder that Invoice #2024-015 for your [Project Name] is due tomorrow. Please let me know if you have any questions! Thanks so much, [Your Name] Automated reminders in invoicing software can save you time and ensure consistency in your billing process. The Bottom Line: Better Invoicing Builds Your Reputation Ultimately, precise, prompt, and professional invoicing is one of the simplest and most effective ways to market your construction business. Clients who trust your paperwork are far more likely to trust your work and recommend you to others. Plus, you'll benefit from: Improved cash flow Fewer disputes Better client relationships A stronger reputation for professionalism Next Steps: Let's Fix It Together Suppose you're ready to stop losing clients to poor invoicing and start winning more referrals. In that case, it can help you set up a professional, efficient invoicing system tailored to your construction business. As a construction bookkeeping specialist, I know how to streamline your paperwork, allowing you to focus on what you do best: building. Wishing you a safe and joyful Fourth of July!

Matt and I met recently at the AWCI Build 25 show in Charlotte.  I knew right away that I was going to like him.  He's been a brand ambassador for Columbia for a bit and it's through that channel that we've gotten to know each other.  I'm fascinated by travel and have even lived in a camper myself so when I heard that he lives in a 5th wheel trailer I got even more excited to talk with him.  Recently he's blown up his social media pages and has quickly made a name for himself as a premier Drywaller but don't let me tell you.  This interview speaks for itself.  From Trim-Tex to Automatic tools, we cover it all on this, the 134th, episode of The Drywall Podcast. This episode and all the episodes in the month of June are brought to you by Tape-Tech.  You can find out more about Tape-Tech by visiting their website at TapeTech.com or follow them on all your favorite social media platforms.  

We're peeling back the layers of home inspections, from red flags and repair requests to how inspections can make or break a deal. Whether you're buying, selling or just curious about what's behind the walls, this episode is packed with insights. Joe Graziano, a REALTOR® with the DeBartoli Real Estate Group in Las Vegas, shares how buyers can navigate inspection reports and negotiate repairs. Matt Cook, director of business development at HomeTeam Inspection Service, explains what's covered in a home inspection, what's not and how to separate real red flags from cosmetic issues. Bob Albrecht, a HomeVestors® franchise owner in Chicago, talks about transforming 2024's Ugliest House of the Year into a showstopper. Plus, we explore whether backyard pools are still a splash or if solar panels are the new must-have.

Scott and I have been admiring each others social media pages for quite some time.  We almost had a podcast about a year ago and it fell through but I was able to wrangle him this time.  We talk about his experience being a Jehovah's Witness and how doing donation work for his religion brings him peace.  We also talk a lot about the automatic finishing tools and the difference between the banjo and the bazooka but the conversation takes a turn when Scott admits that he's struggling with Parkinson's Disease.  We discuss what the future holds for Russell's Drywall and a whole lot more on this, the 133rd, episode of The Drywall Podcast. This episode of TDP was brought to you by Tape-Tech Tools This month we're highlighting the T-RAXX system exclusively by Tape-Tech.  Find out more about this amazing too by visiting their social media pages or checking out the T-RAXX first hand at AMES, All-Wall, and West-Tech.
