"Charlie was great to work with. We were remodeling ourselves and had pulled down a lot of the old drywall to do repairs within the walls, plus various old drywall patchwork needed repair. Charlie was accommodating to our schedule of repair work. He had to come out several times because we were working on a whole house remodel and needed to complete sections at a time. Thanks Charlie for all your help."

"AJM Construction did a drywall repair in one of my rentals. They were on time, did a quality job, cleaned up afterwards and were polite to my tenant. I will use them again the next time that I need drywall."

"They did a great job with the drywall patching! They were upfront about the pricing and the limits of what they could do (we have to take on the painting, but it works). Really happy to not have holes in the wall anymore, and it was very reasonable and done in a timely way."

"Ken, the owner was great and very nice. He responded quickly to our inquiry and gave us all the details of what would be done and what we needed to do to prepare for the job. The workers were very friendly and got right to work when they showed up each day. The price was very good for the job done. Our ceilings look beautiful. We will definitely hire Caliber Drywall again for any drywall job we may need in the future."

"Cody is fantastic! He knows what he is doing and he is very clean and quiet. I work from home and didn't even hear him. He built a wall between my bathroom and vanity and bedroom. Very bad feng shui to see your bathroom from your bedroom....anyway, he built the wall textured, painted and put in base boards ... looks like the wall was there all along. He also hung a mirror and filled in some unsightly holes and put up a towel rack for me. Pricing was good very happy with him and will hire him again. I fully recommend his work."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.

In some minor cases, you can DIY drywall repair with minimal time and money spent. This method is best when you have a hole made by a singular problem, such as accidental furniture moving, and not a continuous problem, like a rodent infestation. 

Knowing what product to use is crucial. For example, small holes only need spackle, whereas large holes might need a new piece of drywall. You can flex your DIY abilities on this project, but if you’d like a second opinion or have a more significant problem, it’s best to call in a drywall repair pro.

Very little. One inch of water can stain walls, warp wood, and create a perfect environment for mold growth. One to two inches of water can do significant damage to drywall, insulation, and electrical systems. Anything over that is considered an extensive flood, often resulting in severe structural damage.

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

If your premixed drywall mud is dried out or has begun to set in the bucket, you may be able to revive it by adding warm water and stirring. However, the first and most important step is to scrape off any hard, dried bits of drywall that may have accumulated toward the top of the container and throw them away because they will not easily reconstitute back into the drywall mud mix.
