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!!"

"Elvin is great. He fixed my wood double front doors and applied paint that I had picked out, as well as new handles/lock. He took his time, was very polite, and made sure everything was in order before in left. My front doors look amazing. Will be hiring him again for more work around the house. Also, his pricing was very reasonable and on point for the amount of repair and painting work he did."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

Drywall can be installed directly on ceiling joists. In fact, this method is common in many construction projects. Drywall sheets are attached to the joists using screws, ensuring a secure and stable installation. Before attaching the drywall, it's important to mark the joist locations on the ceiling, allowing for accurate screw placement. Proper spacing between screws and careful taping and mudding of joints are crucial to creating a smooth and flawless ceiling surface. If the joists are in good condition and level, installing drywall directly on them is a practical and efficient approach.

You should stagger drywall sheets to help prevent cracking. The joints between drywall sheets are the weak spots, so if you install drywall with seams aligned, you’ll create weak lines that run across the length of the wall and extend from floor to ceiling. But when you stagger drywall, the solid sections of panels will support the joints. This can prevent seams from cracking or separating due to fluctuating temperature and humidity, vibrations from movement inside the home, and gravity.

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.

Plaster itself has a higher R-value than drywall. However, there are other considerations surrounding plaster and insulation. As a general rule, it's easier to obtain consistency in insulating value and quality when working with drywall rather than plaster. Plaster walls often don't contain any insulation behind the wall covering by design, and careful evaluation is necessary when choosing to add it.
