"Steve did an awesome job organizing crews to come in for the different phases of drywalling my 1,178SF basement. All the guys had a great work ethic and were very skilled, and Steve reached out to me often throughout the job to keep me up to date. Highly recommend Elite Gypsum for your drywall needs! Only recommendation I’d give is for the home owner to put construction paper down, or pay Steve to do it, so cleanup is much easier. I put it down before mudding started and it made a huge difference."

"I am building a "barndominium" and I contacted three drywall businesses for estimates. Ivan Urquiza, owner of JRZ Construction, contacted me within an hour of my email. We met that day. The other two drywall businesses contacted me 7-12 days later. I hired Ivan. He and his crew are "go-getters". If you want a construction job done well at a fair cost, I can highly recommend JRZ Construction. I subsequently hired Ivan to prime and paint the drywall, install baseboard molding, and hang/paint/trim five interior doors. If you want a good contractor that is reliable and dependable, and offers a good price, you can't go wrong with JRZ Construction of Parachute, CO. Ivan is only 30-years-old but he has 15 years of construction experience. Plus, he really listens and caters to his customers. Dr. Kirk Beattie"

"Wild West Construction did an absolutely fantastic job on my kitchen remodel. They were punctual and diligent throughout the entire process. When there was a delay in materials being shipped, they adjusted and accommodated the delay. Upon request, they went above and beyond the contracted work to meet my needs. Their work was superior and I not only had no complaints at the end of the job, I have already discussed using them for my next home-improvement project. I will not hesitate to use them in the future and strongly recommend them for the quality of their work and their professionalism."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Pros ensure smooth finishes and lasting repairs, avoiding visible patches.

Drywall is safe to cut as long as you follow proper procedures, such as wearing personal protective equipment and using the right tools to score and cut the drywall. When cutting new drywall, it can release dust with silica and other compounds that could pose health risks. Leave cutting drywall to the pros, or wear a high-quality respiratory mask, goggles, and other PPE when handling drywall.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

Whether you need a drywall anchor depends on the specifics of your project, particularly what you're hanging and where. You do not need a drywall anchor if you can screw or nail the object directly into a wooden stud, as the wood provides sufficient support and stability. However, if there are no studs in the location where you plan to hang the item, you should use drywall anchors to ensure it is securely supported. For very lightweight objects, like small pictures, adhesive picture hanging strips can be a suitable alternative to anchors.

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.
