Customers say: Quality work

"I cannot say enough good things about Dave Lallier and his son Wayne. They make a great team and are both very personable and a pleasure to talk with. From the initial quote to the final completion of the job, Dave was very supportive and helpful, ensuring that he could deliver a quality installation in a timely and efficient manner. Communication was always clear, prompt, receptive, and personable. As my project is located in a bonus area above the garage, Dave worked with the supplier to deliver the sheetrock thru a second-floor window rather than having it delivered thru the finished house and up the stairs. This allowed him to use 12-foot sheets instead of 8-foot sheets, resulting in a better-quality installation. Dave even came onsite during the delivery and helped me reinstall the window! My installation included a lot of 45-degree angles (due to the dormer windows and natural slope of the roofline) as well as lots of ceiling lights, speaker mounts, and other prewires that had to be pulled thru and cut around. It came out fantastic! Their work was clean and efficient and they cleaned up the space immaculately when they were finished. I spoke with a number of contractors before hiring and I am so happy that I chose Lallier Construction. I will be calling Dave and Wayne for all my drywall needs in the future. They do big and small jobs and also repairs. Don't hesitate to hire them!!"

"I was very impressed with David's responsiveness and every member of his crew was a pleasure. They completely removed the kitchen floor (and several layers of subfloor) in my 100+ year-old home, made repairs to floor joists and installed new flooring that looks beautiful. It was an evolving project and I appreciated the team's flexibility and speed with which they completed the project."

"Luis and his crew did a fantastic job on my drywall! I just put the second coat of primer on it yesterday, and it looks perfect. They were very respectful of my property and left it clean when they were done. I would highly recommend LDA Drywall to everyone. Thank you Luis and family for a job well done."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

The cost to texture drywall depends on whether you want to do the work yourself or hire a professional. The cost of the drywall mud is far lower than labor costs for applying it. The labor cost to spray drywall compound onto a wall is between $0.80 and $1.50 per square foot, while you’ll pay between $1.50 and $2 per square foot for the labor to apply the texture by hand.

If you want to reduce sound transmission throughout your home, soundproofing drywall is a better choice than standard drywall. However, simply installing soundproofing drywall may not completely block out noise. You’ll get the best results from incorporating it into a larger soundproofing plan that includes proper insulation and framing studs.

You should leave a gap between drywall sheets because they naturally expand and contract along with the building framing as temperature and humidity change. Most pro drywall installers leave a gap of about ⅛ inch between drywall sheets, allowing the sheets to expand, contract, and shift without cracking or becoming damaged. If you don’t leave enough gaps between slabs, the edges will press against each other when they expand, and the pressure can cause visible cracks.
