"We hired JL Drywall and Construction Unlimited LLC to install drywall in a kitchen that'd been torn out down to the studs. Hiring John's company has been one of the best decisions that we've made. We scheduled an appointment for an estimate and John showed up on time. The scope of work was discussed and John sent us a quote the following business day. He worked in the home for 3 days. Each day he showed up exactly when he said he'd be there. Prior to starting the work, he taped paper on the floors in order to protect them. He worked diligently, cleaning up along the way. His prep work, applying mud to the drywall seams and over the screws, was impeccable. He also fixed several areas where work had previously been improperly done. Every wall that he worked on is now perfect! If you need drywall work, popcorn removal, or painting, I urge you to consider hiring JL Drywall and Construction Unlimited LLC for the job. His work is beautiful, he shows up when he says he will, he communicates"

"Amazing Work by KNS! I couldn’t be happier with the job KNS did building my porch! From start to finish, their professionalism, attention to detail, and quality of work were outstanding. The crew showed up on time every day, kept the area clean, and made sure everything was done exactly how I wanted it. The finished porch looks absolutely beautiful—sturdy, stylish, and built to last. It completely transformed the look of my home! You can tell they take real pride in their craftsmanship. If you’re looking for a company that delivers excellent results, honest communication, and great customer service, I highly recommend KNS. They went above and beyond my expectations!"

"Where do I begin? Obviously, when you decide to do a major project or renovation, you are apprehensive. Thatâ s why you go to Angieâ s list to try to save yourself some grief. We received three quotes and decided to go with Painter1 not only because theyâ re pricing, but also because Dionne was very personable and professional, taking many notes and pictures as we walked around our house describing what we wanted. The entire process couldnâ t have been better. The foreman, Gary, was amazing and so was Jose. They kept in constant contact, letting us know what they were doing each step of the process. They took their time meticulously power washing, taping, and prepping. They used the highest quality paint without watering it down like our home builder originally did and applied two even coats. We even inquired about having some drywall installed in our garage and they got it done in a day. They can definitely do more than just paint! At the end of each day, the painters made sure to clean up after themselves and store their equipment neatly out of the way. Dionne would swing by periodically to make sure everything was on track and that we were happy with the process. Needless to say, we were thrilled with Painter1â s work all around. It was amazing to see our house go from extremely faded to vibrant and beautiful as it was several years ago. We are proud of our home once again. So if you have any doubts, please take this review to heart and choose Painter1 of Daphne. Theyâ re an amazing team!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

While a normal moisture level for drywall is between 5% and 12%, replacement is recommended if you get consistent readings above 17%. At this level, the drywall is likely too compromised by extensive moisture damage to be considered safe. You can replace either the entire sheet or just the affected section. If you are unsure after a visual inspection, it is best to have a contractor or water restoration provider use a professional moisture meter to get an accurate reading.

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.

Common causes include water leaks, settling, and impact. Address underlying issues to prevent recurring damage.

You can technically just paint over hairline cracks in plaster since these cracks are often harmless, but this will mostly be a waste of paint. Paint will only hide the hairline crack for a few months before it shows up again. The best solution is to repair the crack with flexible filler or joint compound before repainting.

Which style of corner bead you choose—whether metal or paper-faced—depends on your preference and if you’re comfortable using metal-cutting tools and a hammer. Metal bead offers superior strength and durability but its installation is slightly more involved. We’d say for most cases, it’s better to use metal bead but if you’re not comfortable working with metal, paper-faced bead will work just fine.
