"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

To hide drywall edges, you need to properly apply drywall tape and multiple layers of joint compound. These materials hide the seams between drywall sheets and fill the holes from drywall screws, leaving behind a smooth, flat finish to paint over. Apply joint compound smoothly, and finish the job by sanding the walls to make sure you fully hide drywall edges and other imperfections.

Yes, it matters which side of drywall you use. One side is smooth, and the other is rough. The smooth side should be facing outward, toward the room, while the rough side should be hidden and facing the studs and framing of the house. The smooth side will be easier to apply tape, joint compound, and, later, paint to.

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.

Drywall mudding can be done in one day if the project is small and the desired effect isn’t too complex. If you need multiple layers of mud, one day may not be realistic. But a single room that requires little more than joint compound on the seams and screws can be done in a day or two.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.
