"I hired OBriens Drywall when we were doing kitchen remodel 6 months ago. They removed old kitchen, old drywall from walls and ceiling. They removed old fashioned ceiling dip, which made ceiling higher and allowed to install higher cabinets. They fixed all problems with damaged wood studs, repaired pantry, also replaced doors . Finished drywall with tape and mud. Absolutely high quality job. For reasonable cost, everything delivered on time. Now when we needed do some work in bathroom,. I did not hesitate to hire OBrien again. The best drywall guys!"

Customers say: Quality work

"They did an exceptional job professionally installing drywall and Durock. The job was a rebuild after a water/mold remediation situation. They rebuilt what had been previously removed. Their work included rebuilding portions of 23 walls and 2 ceiling areas, repairing ceiling and wall areas around rebuilt electrical wiring, and miscellaneous damaged areas (holes, etc.). Their work was very professionally completed and ready to paint, with no visible seams remaining, texture restored to match surrounding areas (orange peel on walls, popcorn ceiling). Great job, I would hire again."

"There is a review posted under my name that was done by my ex. If you read the last review, please disregard it. Jay was a five star guy did unbelievably great work. My house looks like a brand new home he did back out on the painting but for very understandable reasons, I did see other work did get done when he said he was going to dedicate the time from my home and that did not happen which caused my house and not get finished. However, I still rained him at least a four or five star due to his work quality it is phenomenal , he did put me off for months after collecting money from me that was concerning he keep calling me and saying every two days heâ ll be there but wasnâ t and then showed up and then had to refund me my money back so again I would highly recommend him for Stucco work Drywall plaster repair he did not hang any of my fixtures back up. He did leave debris around my yard but the last review was just a bash on him and canâ t do that. He did a great job with exception of breach in the contract and leaving me with a home that was half done in so many words, but work quality five star customer service four star getting back to me was a five star, but downgraded to a two star accept a job send them a contract tell them youâ re gonna dedicate every day for them and not do exactly that and ask for more money after negotiating a fixed amount Anyway I just wanted to share. The last review was a big bash on him on an upset moment and I wanted to re-review because I cannot delete that for some reason it will not let me have a good day."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can put drywall mud over paint to even out the surface or entirely resurface it. Sand the surface with 280-grit sandpaper, vacuum the debris and dust with a shop vac, and clean it with a slightly damp cloth. Allow the surface to dry. Apply drywall primer, especially if you’re skim-coating an entire wall. Apply the right type of drywall mud over the surface and smooth it with a trowel. Allow the layer to cure fully, then sand it before applying another layer or painting it.

Most handy homeowners can tackle removing texture from unpainted walls. Removing texture from painted walls is a bit trickier. Paint acts as a sealant, so you can’t soften the texture with water. Instead, you’ll have to add a layer of drywall compound known as a skim coat. This process is messy and takes some practice.

Both plaster and drywall are durable wall finishes, but they differ significantly in installation, cost, performance, and aesthetics.

Installation & Cost: Drywall installation is faster and more affordable, typically costing $1.50 to $3 per square foot. It uses premade sheets, making it a more accessible DIY project. Plastering is a labor-intensive craft that requires specialized skills, pushing costs to $2 to $10 per square foot. It involves applying a wet paste over a lath framework.

Durability & Performance: Plaster is generally more durable, longer-lasting, and provides superior soundproofing. It is also a better insulator, which can help reduce energy costs. Drywall is easier to remove for future renovations.

Aesthetics: Drywall provides a smooth, uniform surface ready for paint or texture. Plaster offers a high-end, naturally textured look that can hide imperfections and is often preferred for achieving a classic or historic aesthetic.

Which is better? The choice depends on your priorities. Drywall is ideal for those prioritizing a lower upfront cost, faster installation, and DIY potential. Plaster is the better option for a higher-end project where durability, soundproofing, and a unique, premium finish are more important than the initial cost.

Yes, cabinets are installed over drywall. The drywall must be in good condition, and you must ensure that the wall can handle the weight of the cabinets. Secure the cabinets to studs and use proper anchoring devices, like toggle bolts.

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.
