"If there was a mark higher than an A I would gladly give it. These guys are amazing! We considered the options and decided to drywall to the peak of the garage rather than drop the ceiling so we could put storage in the rafters. The beams, joists and other framing are exposed in the top of the garage, which required drywalling around them, supplementing the framing in some places and rebuilding some existing drywall in place against the house. Normally they don't insulate but they agreed to and did an outstanding job, even adding more insulation in a small crawl space upon request. They fit the drywall tightly around all of the beams and joists at the ceiling, left square and crisp hatch openings into a crawl space and vent opening and taped and mudded making it easy to paint the space ourselves. To top it all off, their estimate was more than 30% lower than the other bids we received for the same work. While they were here I had them repair a hole inside made by the electricians in error and a place where someone had damaged an interior wall. They patched, mudded and textured the holes in about an hour and their texture job on the ceiling and wall are PERFECT matches. This is one of the most professional companies I have ever worked with. I knew we made the right choice when Steve, who did the estimate, showed up on the job the first day and introduced me to each member of the crew. I'd hire this company again anytime."

"They called quickly to provide a quote and were able to come do the work within 48 hours. Everything was handled professionally. Price seems a little high, but I didn't receive any other quotes so I can't be sure of that. After painting a small section of drywall needed repaired. South Valley sent someone no questions asked to make it perfect."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The best tool for skim coating drywall is a skim coating blade, which can smooth out joint compound in wide stretches. While you could use a smaller drywall knife for skim coating, the smaller size means it’ll take longer to smooth out each section. Instead, consider investing in a skim coating blade for the quickest application.

Installing or repairing plaster on ceilings differs slightly from performing the same motions on a wall. You’ll apply slightly less plaster to lower the overall weight of the ceiling. Wall texturing is common, whereas most ceilings are smooth plaster. Tough coat plaster is strong, meaning you can use less while retaining a solid surface.

Plaster ceilings can sag for several reasons. In some cases, the plaster and other building materials shift and come apart over time, which is why you’ll commonly find drooping plaster ceilings in older homes. Improper installation, foot traffic, and water damage—often from a leaky roof or a broken pipe—can also cause plaster ceilings to sag.

If you're comfortable hanging drywall yourself, you may be comfortable finishing it. But it's worth noting that finishing drywall adds several steps to the process and a lot of waiting time. Hiring a drywall installer may be the way to go if you'd rather spend your time doing other things or are nervous about leaving a rough surface.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.
