"I wish there were 10 stars for Mike Nichols Construction. Mike took on a complete rebuild on a room no one else in town would touch. The room was destroyed by condensation and dry rot and built by an amateur without a permit. Mike’ s meticulous work ethic started with the drawings on the bid and permit application. They were impeccable. You should ask to look at them. The demo alone was amazing. The foundation, walls, roof, interior, exterior and wood stove work was perfect. Look at the website to see it is true. Mike was at the job every day ready to go, and worked hard with his crew until the work was done. This was in winter in Alaska with little sunlight. He had all the tools needed in his work trailer. The communication was open and reliable. Any concerns were promptly addressed and resolved. There were a few times our orders changed and Mike refunded my account without me knowing or asking. Location and Covid supply issues made ordering and receiving difficult. Mike made it easier for me by ordering and picking up my out of town supplies as needed, at no extra charge. Mike Nichols was fair and polite. He managed his crew efficiently. Mike’s attention to detail is at the standard of a fine craftsman. The room is the jewel of the house and built to a much higher standard than most houses in Seward Alaska! I highly recommend Nichol’s Construction for a fair, professional and highly skilled job."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

This depends on how much plaster is applied and in how many layers, but a decent estimate is around 150 square feet. If you are applying only two coats on a small wall, there is a chance you may only need one or two gallons for the entire project. If you are plastering a large living room wall with high ceilings, using one of the more involved techniques–like Scagliola–that requires several coats, expect the project materials costs to add up quickly. 

If you’re installing new drywall, you may need to skim coat the drywall first for a smooth finish and to allow the primer to adhere to the wall. It’s only necessary if there are imperfections in your drywall due to issues with the studs or improper drywall installation. If you’re refreshing existing walls, you may want to skim coat if there are imperfections across the wall. As an alternative, you can repair your drywall and sand it for a smooth finish before painting.

Drywall tape is made of paper, while drywall mesh is made of fiberglass or metal. Drywall mesh patches are suitable for repairing small holes in drywall, while paper drywall tape holds a crease better for corners. You need joint compound to adhere drywall tape to the wall, while mesh patches may be self-adhesive.

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.
