"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."

"After weeks of searching for a drywall installer I finally went to Home Advisor at 10 o’clock one night. Ten minutes later Artie had replied to my request to come look at the job. We had a camping trip planned and would be gone for a week and needed the job done ASAP because we had cabinets ordered. We camped and Artie did the job. We not only found the right contractor we also found a new friend!! Thank you Home Adviser and thank you Riegal and Son??"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Yes, drywall nail pops are a common occurrence in homes, both new and old, resulting from the settling and shifting of the structure over time. Though not present in every room or on every wall, encountering nail pops in different sections of a home is not unusual, particularly if the temperature, humidity, or foundation has experienced changes.

Fixing ceiling nail pops involves similar steps to wall repair, with the major difference being the orientation of the work. Ceiling nail pops can be more challenging because you may need to work overhead, which can be physically demanding and require additional safety precautions. Additionally, the ceiling may have different materials or finishes, such as textured surfaces, which can affect the repair process. Otherwise, the fundamental steps are the same.

While it’s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.

Venetian plaster is a highly durable wall finish that becomes a rock-like substance once dried, making it last longer than most other wall finishes. Its lifespan can range from decades to centuries, potentially lasting a lifetime. Key factors influencing its longevity include the quality of the initial application, whether it's properly sealed against moisture, and how the wall is maintained and treated (e.g., how often it is touched or bumped). Due to its mineral content, it can also develop a patina over time.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.
