"Gerald Kelso responded quickly with a phone call to my search for a drywall specialist and was physically present within an hour afterwards to discuss the work to be done and offer a simple, clear written estimate, He was knowledgeable, courteous, and worked with me to make sure that the job would be both affordable and cover everything that needed doing. He arrived on the agreed-upon day ready to work, was thorough in his preparations to prevent any damage to my home from dripping mud while working . The work itself was of excellent quality and he made every possible effort to match the already existing distinctive textures. He even took the time to find a few small areas which required fixing which I had missed and HE REPAIRED THEM WITHOUT ADDITIONAL CHARGE. The post-job cleanup was as thorough as had been the preparation. I would strongly recommend Gerald Kelso Contracting for anyone's drywall needs as an excellent value."

"This is my second time working with Atkins Home Services. Josh is always a pleasure to work with. Last time he fixed my subfloor and layed my LVP and stair treads. This time he took on the challenge of screening in my back porch. I was hoping to do it myself but I'm glad I called Josh! He had it done in 2 days and was the best quote in town! My daughter and I love spending time out on the porch now that the bugs are at bay. My kitty has also dubbed it his catio so we're all over the moon. Thanks Josh!"

"I went with LuxeCoat Solutions to paint my house, on a friend's recommendation. To say I was not disappointed would be an understatement. Daniel, the owner, was a pleasure to work with and I soon realized his definition of good enough was higher than mine. He worked efficiently, and meticulously, with minimal disruption. My house looks like new. I unhesitatingly recommend this Company if you're looking for excellent work at a more than reasonable cost."

"Triple N did a great job for my project. They listened to my needs and made suggestions to make the job better. They showed up and completed the job, and was also willing to help me with some extra things that I needed done. The paint job was clean and professional done. I was very satisfied and will refer them to others in the future. I will continue to use their services for any future projects that I have. Tara was great with the communication keeping me updated. Thanks everyone!!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The cost to texture drywall depends on whether you want to do the work yourself or hire a professional. The cost of the drywall mud is far lower than labor costs for applying it. The labor cost to spray drywall compound onto a wall is between $0.80 and $1.50 per square foot, while you’ll pay between $1.50 and $2 per square foot for the labor to apply the texture by hand.

You should stagger drywall sheets to help prevent cracking. The joints between drywall sheets are the weak spots, so if you install drywall with seams aligned, you’ll create weak lines that run across the length of the wall and extend from floor to ceiling. But when you stagger drywall, the solid sections of panels will support the joints. This can prevent seams from cracking or separating due to fluctuating temperature and humidity, vibrations from movement inside the home, and gravity.

The amount of drywall you need for a 1,000-square-foot basement depends on the ceiling height, angles, number of doors and windows, and more. To find the wall square footage, multiply the width and height of each wall, minus any gaps from windows or doors, and add the totals together. You’ll also need enough drywood nails or screws to install the drywall correctly.

There are a few ways to figure out if your walls are plaster or drywall, but the pushpin method is probably the easiest option. To try it, choose a part of your wall where you can insert a pushpin or thumbtack without leaving an obvious mark. If it goes in easily, you have drywall. But if the wall is tough to penetrate, that’s plaster.

If you only have tiny holes in your drywall (for example, dents or nail marks), you probably won’t need a patch kit. Instead, you can plug the hole with a small amount of spackle. Once the spackle dries, you can sand the area and paint over it—just like you would in the steps outlined above.
