"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."

"Sergio made two drywall repairs for me. First, the living room ceiling where a water leak had damaged the drywall in four places. Second, a cutout in the bedroom wall adjacent to the garage where I had installed an air conditioner temporarily. Sergio explained what he was doing and was careful to clean up when the jobs were complete. The drywall had different textures in the two places, and he was able to match the textures exactly! Even now, before painting, it is impossible to see where the repairs were made. His quote was reasonable, and he stood by this quote when the job was finished. Sergio has been doing drywall for over 40 years, but he still takes pride in his work and tries to do the best possible job."

"Mr. Rosas came in and did some drywall work in my stair well. The previous company left bubbles and soggy finishing. Rosas came in and repaired their work. He also Did some work in the living room and blended everything in spectacularly. I would hire him again in a heartbeat. As far as I am concerned this is a five star company."

"I had called the company for an estimate. He was able to come out the next morning to look over what I needed. He took the appropriate measurements and told me I would have a quote within a couple of days. Once we reviewed the estimate, which was very reasonable, I called Chris to see when he could schedule the work. He was able to get it scheduled within a few days.

He used 4 workers and was able to do all the work within one day. They arrived on time, did all the work within one day, and cleaned up everything when they were done. They were very professional and did an outstanding job!

We will definitely consider them for future work. We can highly recommend them if you need drywall work done."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Knowing what causes drywall damage can help stop it before it starts. Here are some of the most common causes of drywall damage: 

  • Water damage from roof leaks or leaky pipes. 

  • Small holes caused by doorknobs, minor accidents, and rodent infestations. 

  • Wall dents stemming from moving furniture and minor accidents. 

  • Wall cracks that form from a settling foundation or seismic activity. 

  • Nail pops from nails and screws in the walls. 

  • Large holes that are caused by accidents with heavy objects, children and pets, or sporting equipment.

It's generally recommended to hang drywall on the ceiling first before moving on to the walls. This sequence allows the ceiling sheets to provide support for the vertical wall sheets. By attaching the ceiling drywall initially, you establish a solid framework to align and attach the wall panels accurately. This method ensures a seamless and sturdy connection between the ceiling and walls, resulting in a more professional finish.

You can paint over plaster, but repair any damage to the plaster first, or the paint will crack and bubble. You should also prepare the surface of the plaster to accept paint, which gives your paint job the best chance of looking good and lasting a long time. Before applying the color you want, apply a coat or two of primer. Additionally, use latex paint, and choose a latex paint with a satin finish for areas with dampness, like bathrooms.

Water-damaged drywall should almost always be replaced. Not only does it look bad, it’s a breeding ground for toxic mold. Even if you think the area is dry and there’s no active leak, the only way to be sure is to cut out the damaged area and see for yourself.

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.
