"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!"

"After a very frustrating year and a half of being ripped off and lied to, this man showed up, did excellent work in a timely manner and went beyond expectations. Previous worker almost destroyed my custom made french doors. John salvaged and installed them beautifully. He also fixed the vintage picture window that another worker installed very badly. John has knowledge you can only learn from years in the business, we called them "tricks of the trade" and be amazed me several times. Thank you fir thus opportunity to sing his praises. Peace"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The person’s skill will affect how many drywall sheets they can hang in one day. Some people can hang 10 or more sheets in a day, while others may only hang six or seven sheets. It also depends on the framing complexity since custom cutting and fitting the drywall can prolong the process.

Options include bricks, natural stone, and concrete blocks. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and budget.

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.
