"Max was on time, professional, and very dedicated to getting the job done. He went above and beyond to paint our four rooms and our hallway - ceilings, trim, and walls. He fixed all of the drywall imperfections, moved all of the furniture, covered all of the area that was being painted and did an excellent job! He finished in two and 1/2 days. It looks to us like we have a new house. He also did an excellent job powerwashing our metal roof and gutters! We will definitely hire him again!"

"Atlantic contractors did a great job in building my 14 x 24 three season room. From the beginning, Brent was very responsive to my questions and very easy to work with. He was very patient and flexible going through our community review process. The end product is a solidly built addition that I am very much enjoying. As a note, shortly after construction we had two significant rainfalls and there was no leaks in the windows, doors or roof. I would not hesitate to use them again."

"Q and his wife Alicia are an excellent team. His work is impeccable. He installed a microwave over my oven, a motion light to replace an old one in my shed, which was sparking, and. Enclosed off an old electrical switch and covered in plastered it perfectly. He also threw in plastering one crack in the wall. The work was excellent, they keep a vacuum handy and keep the workspace, very clean, and we’re very quick. I would recommend them anytime."

"Replaced damaged ceiling drywall, stripped old wallpaper, sanded and prepped all walls, repainted walls and replaced all molding and installed new bathroom fixtures. He did this for two old bathrooms. Work was accomplished on time and for a very fair price I will also be using Marvin for several other projects in the near future. He does excellent work"

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.

Costs depend on damage extent of damage, labor, finishing, and whether mold remediation is needed.

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.

Drywall insulation costs around $1,800, on average, but prices can range from $500 to $4,500, depending on a few different factors. The following things are important considerations to make when pricing out your insulation project:

  • Square footage of insulation

  • Type of insulation 

  • Climate in your area and the insulation R-value required

  • Whether or not your walls are already finished

  • Accessibility of the area 

  • Whether or not you need old insulation removed first

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.
