"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."

"The team did a wonderful job! I would hire them again in a moment. Marbin was responsive and knew exactly what needed to be done to finish the drywall. His team started quickly after we signed the contract. The walls look wonderful and they were able to do anything I requested to make sure the job was done correctly. Don't hesitate to hire these contractors!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Plastering lasts for around 15 to 20 years without needing repairs or maintenance in most cases, and with proper upkeep, plastering can last a lifetime—sometimes more than 100 years. Plaster repair costs between $1 and $3 per square foot, and you may need these services once every 15 to 20 years or so unless you have a harsh climate where humidity changes are a constant issue. You can also opt to skim-coat plaster for between $0.90 and $1.30 per square foot, which may serve you better in the long run.

Yes, applying a texture can hide minor imperfections and irregularities in drywall, but it will not cover significant damage like nail marks or screw holes. The best texture depends on the size of the flaws. For minor imperfections, popular choices like orange peel, sand, or popcorn texture are effective. For larger imperfections, you may need a more prominent style, such as a knockdown or trowel finish, to conceal them effectively.

Most drywall used for interior walls of homes is 1/2-inch thick. This size strikes a balance of being easy to handle and hang while being thick enough for the durability needed on interior wall applications.

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.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.
