"Hired Martin for a dry wall repair in my home. Did a great job and did the knockdown texture that my wall has perfectly. Cleaned up after as well and worked very well. Will recommend him for future work."

"I contacted Jose early in the morning and he was so responsive in scheduling our appointment for a quote that morning. He arrived wearing a mask which put me at ease during Covid and came a little early for the appt. He assessed the drywall repair work and gave me a very reasonable price for the few hours he worked. I was very pleased with the hole he patched up and painted; and he got rid of the drywall water damage stain. All in all an excellent job. I would highly recommend Jose, skilled, professional, and friendly."

"We hired Marshall to take down some damaged drywall in several rooms and the reinstall new drywall. He did a fantastic job, was timely, professional and importantly the quality of his work was excellent. We subsequently hired him again to resize all the internal doors in the house after we had our floors retitled. Again the work was excellent and Marshall polite and professional as before. Would highly recommend."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

A nail in drywall cannot hold very much—usually only a few pounds. A nail in a stud can add support and hold around 20 pounds. If you are trying to hang something heavier, get some help from drywall anchors—toggle bolts are very strong and able to withstand more weight.

If you don’t have studs in the area where you want to install your TV mount, you may still be able to install a TV mount on drywall. The easiest way to install a mount on drywall is by using drywall anchors—but not just any plastic anchors. Choose molly bolts or toggle anchors, which have a weight capacity of around 50 pounds. For added support, consider pairing drywall anchors with a wall mounting plate. Extra heavy TVs may need to be mounted via the ceiling joists or beams.

You’ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish.

Metal corners, often referred to as corner beads for square corners, are used on drywall installations to provide structural reinforcement to vulnerable outside corners. Their usage safeguards against chipping, denting, or other forms of damage, enhancing the overall durability of the wall. Metal corners also offer a precise and straight edge that facilitates sharp and clean lines, crucial for achieving a polished and professional finish.
