"It went very well. While removing the old flooring it was discovered that the drywall around the stool area needed to be replaced. New drywall was installed and painted to match the rest of the wall. Floor boards were repainted. The new flooring was installed as was the new toilet."

"Sam is a true general contractor, he and his team remodeled dated living room, taking on the stairs, building in a media cabinet, creating a feature wood wall, re texturing the ceiling, repainting the whole room, and installing lighting. Our 1960s open staircase with it is bare metal handrail was turned into a beautiful focal point in the room, complete with a classic wooden handrail and built in storage and media cabinet beneath the stairs. The attention to detail uplifted the project, really one of a kind results, his crew delivered exactly the stairs we had dreamed of! Sams crew, Raf and Cruz are excellent, we wanted a feature wood wall with a precise, geometric look, and the wall looks better than the picture we showed them. Along the way, we changed our minds, added things, and were, in some ways a pain but Sam was always agreeable, willing and professional. The job site was tidy each day, and they were on time. I will hire Sam again and highly recommend him."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Deciding whether to repair or replace drywall can be tricky, but your top considerations should be the extent of the damage and what caused the damage. For instance, if you need to repair a small hole caused by a doorknob that hit the wall, you can safely patch it without a second thought. However, if you have significant drywall damage caused by water damage, it’s best to thoroughly remove the drywall to inspect and repair the pipes behind it before replacing it.

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.

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.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

A common cause of separation between a wall and the ceiling is truss lift—this can happen to the ceiling of rooms directly under the attic when the seasons change and wood building materials dry out, shrink, and shift. Roof trusses often dry out at different speeds, and if the bottom pieces dry out faster than the top pieces, they can shrink and pull the attached drywall away from ceilings and walls, causing cracks. Fortunately, truss lift is only a cosmetic problem, not a structural problem, and you can fix it by separating the ceiling drywall from the roof trusses, and patching the cracks.
