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!!"

"We needed to replace a patch of our living room ceiling due to damage from a water leak upstairs. We contacted C&B, who responded and quoted us a price quickly. The price was fair for a multi-day job, they got it done within a week, and they even helped us repaint the ceiling. Very professional, courteous, and trustworthy. We'd strongly recommend!"

"Jaleel did an excellent job on our water damage rebuild project. The scope included insulation, drywall, painting, trim work, and final finish work following an insurance claim. What stood out most was Jaleel's professionalism, communication, and responsiveness throughout the project. The project was completed on schedule, the quality of the rebuild work was very good, and he was easy to work with from start to finish. I would absolutely hire Jaleel and Pro Renovate again."

"We have a very old home, around 95 yrs . Our walls are plaster not sheet rock. They knew how to patch it properly. She then sanded it and painted. It looks amazing. Danielle is a very pleasant person to work with. When she told us the time she would arrive, she was there. Her work is top notch. I highly recommend her and the company."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

While every home has its own unique needs, ceiling drywall installation typically follows a staggered or stepped pattern to enhance structural integrity and reduce the visibility of seams. Starting from one corner, sheets are placed perpendicular to the ceiling joists, with the ends of adjacent sheets meeting along the center of the joist. The next row begins with a half sheet, ensuring joints don't align vertically. This alternating pattern, combined with proper taping and mudding, creates a seamless appearance and strengthens the ceiling structure, minimizing the risk of cracks over time.

Costs depend on labor, material quality, wall preparation, and finishing requirements.

Drywall anchors won’t work on plaster. Instead, they will more than likely cause more damage and pull out the plaster. The best type of anchors to use on plaster walls are the ones that will bite into the surrounding area, such as molly bolts and toggle bolts. Masonry anchors with expanders on the sides also work for lighter pictures.

A local drywall contractor can texture your drywall for you. Drywall contractors are a better choice than general handy people because the contractors have a lot of experience working with drywall mud. The process is somewhat of an art thanks to the complexity of working with the mud, so call in a drywall pro who knows what they’re doing.

It is more difficult to drywall a ceiling than it is to drywall a wall, but not so hard that DIYers can’t tackle it. One of the main issues with hanging drywall on your ceiling is getting it into place. Drywall isn’t light so, if you are hanging full drywall panels, you will need at least two (it’s better with more) people to hold the panel while you drill it into the ceiling as a single piece can weigh between 40 and 60 pounds and will need to be held in place for up to 10 minutes.
