"Extremely satisfied with AJM Construction. They are very professional and good at explaining what will be done, how it will be done and when it will be finished. Everything was clearly spelled out in written estimate and the contract. They were on time and did a great job covering furniture and cleaning up afterwards. We have no reservations giving them them a 5 rating and highly recommending them for any drywall work."

"My family needed dry wall installation for a remodeled bedroom and we contacted Osvaldo to complete the work. Not only did he show up at the time and date he said he would but he was very thorough with his quote for his services and did not change the pricing once the project started. The work only took a few days and he was very responsive to all our questions and completed on the day he said he would. Great work, easy, and superior quality. Highly recommend his services and plan on using his company for any future projects."

"Brad's company has performed services at both my home and office on different occasions.  Part of the work has been a remodeling type project and another has been due to a pipe leak and resulting damage in my home.  Brad and his guys removed drywall, replaced drywall, mud/tape/texture drywall, primed, painted new & repaired drywall.  They even removed old wallpaper and textured and finished the drywall underneath!  I appreciate that Brad is always prompt in returning calls, he shows up as scheduled, and the work is done without my supervision."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

When you are learning how to tape and mud drywall, waiting for things to dry requires a lot of patience. So how long does drywall mud take to dry? On average, it takes about 24 hours. However, it depends on things like the thickness of the mud, as well as the room’s temperature, humidity, and ventilation. Using thin layers of mud in a warm, low-humidity room with good airflow reduces average drying time. You also could speed up drying time by making use of hot drywall mud, which consists of a powder that you mix with water, instead of using pre-mixed mud. 

You can take a few steps to save money on drywall installation, even when hiring a professional to do the bulk of the work for you. These ideas include the following:

  • Buy the drywall and other materials yourself to avoid product markup and delivery fees

  • Ask about discounts if you use the same company to tape, spackle, and paint

  • Hire drywall professionals in the winter when demand is the lowest

  • DIY as many parts of the project as possible, like replacing insulation and painting

Installing or repairing plaster on ceilings differs slightly from performing the same motions on a wall. You’ll apply slightly less plaster to lower the overall weight of the ceiling. Wall texturing is common, whereas most ceilings are smooth plaster. Tough coat plaster is strong, meaning you can use less while retaining a solid surface.

Popular wall textures include orange peel, knockdown, spray sand, and smooth finishes. Orange peel and knockdown are particularly common choices for drywall as they are simple and cost-effective. Orange peel texture has a lightly bumpy surface resembling the skin of an orange, while knockdown (sometimes called knockout) looks like a stucco finish with flattened high spots. In contrast, popcorn texture has fallen out of fashion, partly due to its past association with asbestos and a shift toward more restrained interior design styles.

The easiest way to cut holes in drywall for electrical boxes is to use a spiral saw with a drywall router bit. Hang the drywall without cutting out a hole for the box, but make sure you measure and mark where the box is located on the wall. Once you screw in the drywall sheet, drill a small hole into the box void, insert the spiral saw bit, and move it around the edge of the box using the inside wall as a guide. You can also use an oscillating multi-tool with an electrical box cutout for fast, professional results.
