"We hired James to drywall our dining room and guest bedroom. He is a one man show and guarantees great work! He made sure to ask what our finishing would be (smooth with crown molding) and answered all of the questions we had. Every day he left the project site clean and made sure to protect the rest of our home from dust. We are extremely happy with the results! Looking forward to having him work on more projects as our home renovations continue."

"The team of 3 showed up each morning promptly at 7:30 AM. They begun by throughly laying plastic everywhere to catch all of the dust, dirt, and drywall compound. By 3:30 PM they would remove all of the plastic and clean up. Some of the work they did was:

* Repaired under the stairs where carpet once was
* cracks in the wall from the house settling
* holes where a hand rail once was
* holes from old cable lines
* many old patches
* popped nail heads
* hung drywall 20 ft high
* retextured entire rooms - 9 walls total

We were very pleased at the work done. It surpassed our expectations. We still have some more worked needed in the future and will certain reach out to Jim and his team again."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Look for flaking paint or air bubbles that burst and then flake away. Paint will begin to flake after being exposed to minimal moisture or water, so it’s a good indicator of any water damage. If you notice your paint starting to flake, feel the plaster underneath to see if it is soft or damp.

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.

Drywall can get wet and dry out without sustaining permanent damage, but only if the water damage is minor. If you have a small leak and are quick to correct the issue and set up blower fans and dehumidifiers, your drywall should dry out. If the leak is persistent, the drywall becomes totally waterlogged, or mold begins forming on the drywall, you should remove and replace it.

On average, drywall installation costs around $2,000, with a typical range of $400 to $6,000, including materials and labor. The final price depends on several factors. The most significant is the size of the area, as many contractors charge per square foot. Other cost factors include the complexity of the job (e.g., cutting around multiple windows and doors, corners, or curved walls), accessibility, location, the thickness of the drywall, the height of the room, and the desired level of finish. The level of finish can range from simply hanging the drywall to taping and mudding the seams and painting the walls.

Drywall can be toxic to the environment and to humans in some cases. As drywall breaks down in a landfill and comes in contact with other organic chemicals, it can create hydrogen sulfide gas or leach into the groundwater. Additionally, the CDC recommends methods for controlling the inhalation of drywall dust when handled. While the common ingredients of drywall—gypsum, silica, and mica—are naturally occurring, they can cause irritation in some humans.
