"Y&M Installers are the best! They do excellent work! They removed damaged drywall due to a bad roof leak. Once the roof was repaired, they installed new drywall. They work quickly and are resonable priced. They left the site clean every day. I highly recommend their services."

"Sam was great. Finished the drywall in my detached garage after I hurt my hand and wasn't able to do it myself. He was very responsive to questions and text messages. Showed up on time, if not early, every day. Was really quick too. Tape, mudded, and sanded in 3 mornings. Would not hesitate to hire him again."

Customers say: Quality work

"Tim cut out sections of our bathroom drywall as we were checking for a leak behind the walls, reinstalled them, mudded, then painted. This required him to come back numerous times. Tim was reliable, on time and adapted to our schedule. Due to the hurricane we had to postpone completion, but Tim was patient and finished the job when we were available. He was meticulous- the wall looks better than the original. Would definitely rehire him again!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Drywall tape is made of paper, while drywall mesh is made of fiberglass or metal. Drywall mesh patches are suitable for repairing small holes in drywall, while paper drywall tape holds a crease better for corners. You need joint compound to adhere drywall tape to the wall, while mesh patches may be self-adhesive.

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.

Applying plaster to a wall will usually cost between $2 and $10 per square foot for both the material and labor. The cost will vary based on the quality of the plaster you’re using and whether or not prep work is required before the work begins. Wall prep can add up to about 10% to your total costs. Plastering exterior walls can be more expensive in many cases because they are taller and require scaffolding and safety equipment.

When sanding drywall mud, you’re going to create a very fine dust that may contain silica. Silica dust contains crystalline silica, which can cause long-term illnesses for people who inhale it in significant quantities. Wear a mask while sanding drywall. Then dampen a drywall sponge to wipe the dust off the drywall, helping to reduce the amount of dust that may become airborne.

It’s always better to follow proven drywall repair tips and fix the seams that look bad. However, if you simply want to make them less noticeable until you have time to fix them, you can use paint. A darker color of paint makes bad drywall tape seams less noticeable than light-colored paint. Matte paint hides bad seams better than glossy paint does, too.
