Customers say: True professional

"Friendly working owner Robert Dunn arrived at our agreed date and time. He expertly fixed both areas, leaving them ready for touch-up painting. He advised me to install a door stop behind the garage access door to prevent future damage to the wall. Shortly after Mr. Dunn had finished the job and before I had a chance to install a door stop, I accidently dented the repaired wall with the door handle when opening the garage access door.. I immediately informed Mr. Dunn of the mishap and asked if he would be willing to come back and fix the dent at his convenience at no additional charge. Mr, Dunn went the extra mile by graciously returning at a second agreed date and time. He fixed the dent perfectly and even installed the door stop I had purchased. PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE with Dunn Drywall: I had previously hired Dunn Drywall several years ago to repair a large area of ceiling of my master bedroom which had caved in during a severe rain storm. I was very grateful and satisfied with his repair, done for a very reasonable price, especially since my home insurance company had denied coverage."

"Simply outstanding. Arrived promptly at the designated time and immediately covered our tile & carpeted floors, as well as furniture in the immediate work area. Upon cutting open the affected water damaged drywall, he discovered a remaining pinhole leak in a drainage pipe from the upstairs bathroom previously repaired by a plumber...or so we thought. He quickly repaired the leak, replaced the drywall section, taped, and textured the wall to match the surrounding surfaces. Upon completion, he thoroughly cleaned the area. A courteous and skilled drywall professional, I would highly recommend J Drywall to other patrons and will actively seek his services for any future drywall or interior painting jobs required in our home."

"The quality of drywall and texturing work was excellent and the price was very reasonable. I called on a Friday afternoon and the work was performed the following Monday, just three days later, even though it was on a holiday (Memorial Day)! 1st Choice Drywall, Inc. will be my first choice for any future drywall needs.

"If you're looking for a top-notch drywall contractor in Escondido, look no further than Ricardo Ramirez Santana. This guy's the real deal. From the moment he stepped into my office, I could tell I was in good hands. I called him up to replace the old plaster walls in my office, and right away, he was responsive. He got me a fair, honest estimate, and explained everything in a way that made me feel comfortable—no gimmicks, no pushy sales tactics. Just straight talk. Scheduling was a breeze, and when the day came to get the job done, you better believe he was there on time, ready to work. I’m a local real estate broker and I've seen a lot of contractors in my day, but Ricardo and his crew, they’re something special. The work? Flawless. I’m talking about smooth, even seams here. And the finish? Perfect. Thankfully, he didn’t cut corners. Every detail was taken care of. And when it was all done, they cleaned up like they'd never even been there."

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

If you already have plaster walls and ceilings, adding new plaster costs $2 to $10 per square foot. For an average-sized room, that would come out to $1,200 to $10,000. However, the cost to replace plaster with drywall is higher—running between $720 and $1,250 for a 10-by-8-foot wall or ceiling (not including drywall finishing).

You’ll get better results if you soundproof the whole wall. A hole through which light can pass can also let sound waves in. Acoustical or silicone sealant applied to holes and cracks can block enough sound to make a difference. However, the more layers absorb vibrations and slow or stop sound waves, the less noise you’ll have. 

Yes, you can hammer a nail into a wall stud. But before you do, it’s important to confirm that you’re actually nailing into a stud—and not wiring, pipes, or ductwork. To check, find a few more studs in the wall, then measure to make sure they’re either 16 or 24 inches apart.

While certain types of textured walls can seem dated (looking at you, popcorn), textured walls are a common sight in both older and more modern homes. The main reason textured walls may be here to stay is that they are an excellent way to hide minor imperfections on a wall and give it a finished appearance. Some homeowners think a coat of paint on drywall is a bit industrial-looking. However, that look works perfectly in modern home design. 

You can paint over drywall mud about 24 hours after application, but the exact timing depends on factors like humidity, temperature, and the thickness of the mud. For the best results, ensure the mud is completely dry to the touch and has changed from a darker gray to a lighter, chalky white. Don’t forget to sand and prime the drywall surface before you paint to create a smooth, even finish.
