"Mr. Gerald did an excellent job repairing the drywall in my garage. He textured the repaired drywall identically as the current surrounding wall with just his drywall mud trowel. I have never seen someone do this and it was great. I certainly recommend Gerald Kelsoe Contracting LLC for drywall repair projects."

"This was a BIG job and Adam over-delivered! After a bad flooding incident, Adam rebuilt the entire master bathroom, master bedroom, kitchen, and living room. He replaced all of the sub-flooring, vinyl flooring, drywall, and did a great job replacing the base and ceiling trim. Adam is a great listener (massively important!), and he provided multiple solutions to fit the budget before he started. I would highly recommend his work to anyone in need of a talented and trustworthy contractor."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Plaster is a pretty tough surface, but it can still sustain damage from things like bumping against it, water issues, dampness, extreme humidity changes, and plain old age. Most plaster walls last hundreds of years and will only be taken down to the base layer when major repairs are required. Being cautious around the wall, not placing furniture against it, and ensuring stable humidity are all great ways to reduce possible damage.

To hide drywall edges, you need to properly apply drywall tape and multiple layers of joint compound. These materials hide the seams between drywall sheets and fill the holes from drywall screws, leaving behind a smooth, flat finish to paint over. Apply joint compound smoothly, and finish the job by sanding the walls to make sure you fully hide drywall edges and other imperfections.

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

New plaster must be fully dry and cured before painting. The drying time for plaster ranges from 1 to 4 hours, but the curing process can take more than five days, depending on various factors, including humidity levels, temperature, the amount of plaster used, and airflow in the area. You should always apply primer before painting plaster.

The easiest way to remove texture from walls is the soak-and-scrape method. You’ll need to spray a section of the wall with water and let the water soak in and soften the texture. Then, you need to scrape the texture off using a drywall taping knife. This method works best with unpainted walls since paint prevents water from saturating the textured joint compound.
