"I read all the reviews before hired him, Gerardo. He is the best. I have the restroom ceiling and the shower drywalls fixed. They look so beautiful as the originals with smooth texture. I am very happy and feel so lucky. Gerardo is very friendly, nice, professional, and easy to work with because he cares. He thoroughly explained the repair process, gave recommendations about the aftercare, and other projects I might or should think about that I should consider in the future. Very honest. The work was well prepped, nice, neat, and cleaned up completely after all. He is very good at drywall, knows exactly what to do, so pro. Very reasonable too. Cannot thank him enough. My walls are so beautiful. After I paint them, I bet nobody knows there was a big ceiling hole before. Thank you, Gerardo."

"I’m Floyd Cooper, and I recently had the pleasure of working with Jorge and his incredible team at Unit Drywall for a complete renovation of my rental property at 8282 Moore Haven Way, 95828. From start to finish, their professionalism and craftsmanship truly stood out. Jorge and his crew tackled the renovation with impressive skill and efficiency. They completely remodeled all the bathrooms, transformed the entire flooring throughout the house, painted every room, and revamped the kitchen—all in record time. I was amazed at how quickly they delivered such high-quality work. What really impressed me was not just their speed, but the affordability of their services. They provided exceptional value without compromising on quality. It’s rare to find a team that combines skill, professionalism, and affordability so seamlessly. I wholeheartedly recommend Jorge and his crew to anyone looking for top-notch renovations. They are now my go-to for any future projects!!!"

"He arrived close to the time I was told and checked out the work to be done. He then left for about an hour to get supplies and when he returned he fixed the problem of the 1/4" gap between my floor and the threshold. He also replaced the casing on the left side of my door and painted it to match the rest of the frame."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The best tool for skim coating drywall is a skim coating blade, which can smooth out joint compound in wide stretches. While you could use a smaller drywall knife for skim coating, the smaller size means it’ll take longer to smooth out each section. Instead, consider investing in a skim coating blade for the quickest application.

Drywall repair is typically completed within a day, depending on damage extent.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

Plaster is denser, harder, and more porous than drywall, so it absorbs moisture differently. This means you’ll often need more prep work, such as thorough sanding, patching, and priming with a high-quality bonding primer. Additionally, you may need more coats of paint to achieve even coverage. While the process takes more time, it helps ensure a durable and professional-looking result.

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.
