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."

"Very well organized and efficient work crew. Project was a new sound isolating ceiling, patch and refinish all electrician wall holes to match existing drywall finish, and, refinish fireplace bricks to match and blend into existing adjacent connecting drywall finish. Family company that delivered star professional results. Special acknowledgement, this was my first time contracting with them, and, after starting them for a day and a half I had to leave on business mid-way into their part of the project, however, all work jobs were performed and completed on time as discussed and according to specifications with great looking results. I look forward to working with them again on any future projects."
 another one well done!

"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.

"Javier's work is first class. Originally, the project scope was to fix a patch of drywall as cleanup from a plumbing repair. While he was here, I asked if he would be able to also wall off a double door opening between my master bedroom and office, and the results are fantastic. He was able to demo, hang the drywall and match the texture of the existing walls. Javier was responsive, friendly, professional, and helped provide options and solutions for the different things that popped up. f I have any future drywall work, I'll definitely be giving him a call."

"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 questions, answered by experts

Beadboard is a decorative element and lacks the structural integrity of drywall. It cannot hold much weight and is not meant to be used as an insulator or moisture barrier, like drywall is. In almost all cases, beadboard is placed over an existing wall surface which, in modern days, is usually drywall, but decades ago could have been wood paneling.

You should stagger drywall sheets to help prevent cracking. The joints between drywall sheets are the weak spots, so if you install drywall with seams aligned, you’ll create weak lines that run across the length of the wall and extend from floor to ceiling. But when you stagger drywall, the solid sections of panels will support the joints. This can prevent seams from cracking or separating due to fluctuating temperature and humidity, vibrations from movement inside the home, and gravity.

Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

Small patches can be DIY, but professionals handle large-scale repairs with seamless results.
