"I recently needed drywall repair in my family room after mold remediation on an exterior wall, and I cannot recommend Rodney highly enough. From start to finish, his work was flawless. He completely understood the importance of not just repairing the drywall, but ensuring the area was properly sealed and ready for a perfect finish. The patch and texture work he did is absolutely seamless—you would never know there was ever any damage there. The wall looks brand new. Beyond the excellent craftsmanship, Rodney was professional, punctual, and incredibly tidy. He kept the work area clean and was very communicative throughout the process. He turned what could have been a stressful situation into a smooth and easy experience. If you need drywall repair or installation, especially for something as particular as post-remediation work, Rodney is your go-to expert. Outstanding quality and a true professional. Thank you, Rodney"

"The work was done very professionally. Javier was organized, proficient in both drywall work and painting. I was amazed at how quickly he was able to hang the drywall in my bathroom remodel and repair my front hallway, making drywall that was literally destroyed look like new. He is just as expert in painting as he is in drywall work. As you know, or maybe you don't, drywall work is very messy. Javier makes a huge, successful effort to keep all exposed surfaces covered with plastic. When his work is completed he does a great job of cleaning up and leaving no mess behind. I would certainly hire him for any similar work again. I also would like to say that I found Javier to be very honest and trustworthy."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

While it’s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

Drywalling a garage is a smart decision if you want to protect your garage from fires, moisture damage, and exterior noise. Most garages have flammable supplies that could result in serious damage in the off chance of an accident. Drywall is fire resistant, helping to prevent fires from spreading. Not to mention, drywall can improve the appearance of a dingy, old garage.

Both plaster and drywall are durable wall finishes, but they differ significantly in installation, cost, performance, and aesthetics.

Installation & Cost: Drywall installation is faster and more affordable, typically costing $1.50 to $3 per square foot. It uses premade sheets, making it a more accessible DIY project. Plastering is a labor-intensive craft that requires specialized skills, pushing costs to $2 to $10 per square foot. It involves applying a wet paste over a lath framework.

Durability & Performance: Plaster is generally more durable, longer-lasting, and provides superior soundproofing. It is also a better insulator, which can help reduce energy costs. Drywall is easier to remove for future renovations.

Aesthetics: Drywall provides a smooth, uniform surface ready for paint or texture. Plaster offers a high-end, naturally textured look that can hide imperfections and is often preferred for achieving a classic or historic aesthetic.

Which is better? The choice depends on your priorities. Drywall is ideal for those prioritizing a lower upfront cost, faster installation, and DIY potential. Plaster is the better option for a higher-end project where durability, soundproofing, and a unique, premium finish are more important than the initial cost.
