"We're very pleased with the drywall repair/repainting job done by Dango Drywall. The two workmen handily repaired a 2 x 2 ft opening in our living room ceiling that resulted from water damage and subsequent plumbing repairs. They also repainted the affected area, after taking the trouble to shop for the shade of paint needed to closely match the rest of our ceiling. As others have mentioned, Dango Drywall worked both expertly and efficiently, completing the entire job in less than 3 hours. And all for a very reasonable price!"

"I went with this company to do a Drywall installation and painting on my Tuff shed. I could not be more delighted working with this company and their employees. Polite, hard-working, prompt, efficient and professional-- just a pleasure to work with a top-rate company after having so many poor experiences with other groups. Cannot recommend them highly enough."

"Israel was extremely professional, communicated well and the job he did was top-notch. He repaired a poorly done ceiling drywall that was initially damaged due to water leaks. He completed the job in 2 days as he promised and his rates were very reasonable. I would highly recommend him for all drywall needs."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Yes, it matters which side of drywall you use. One side is smooth, and the other is rough. The smooth side should be facing outward, toward the room, while the rough side should be hidden and facing the studs and framing of the house. The smooth side will be easier to apply tape, joint compound, and, later, paint to.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.

Regular dusting, occasional repainting, and avoiding harsh scrubbing preserve the finish.

Yes, small, superficial cracks are normal as homes settle. Older homes have a higher chance of showing signs of settling through hairline cracks from temperature changes, moisture changes, and soil shifting. However, larger cracks, or discolored cracks from water damage, may signify a bigger problem that requires reparations and preventative measures.
