"I recently hired David McCoy to do some patchwork on the drywall in my house, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. He displayed utmost professionalism, punctuality, and exceptional skills throughout the entire process. The patched areas are seamless—you’d never know there was any damage there to begin with. David paid close attention to detail and ensured everything was executed perfectly. Moreover, he maintained cleanliness in the workspace and was very respectful of my home environment. I highly recommend David McCoy for any drywall work. His excellent craftsmanship and outstanding service make him a top choice for anyone in need of drywall repair. You won't be disappointed!"

"Lance was awesome! He painted my master bedroom and patched a couple holes we had in the drywall. One from my dog, and it turned out great, better than expected. The dog sure did a number but now you would never know my dog ate the wall. The paint job was done nice and neat and come out very well! We are so pleased with his work. Lance was professional and on time to do the job. Very easy to schedule with. I already have more jobs I’d like him to do!"

"We are extremely happy with Edson, Johana, and the work done by ENJ Luminous LLC! From our first call to the completion of the project only took about 10 days. Esmond came the same day to give us an estimate for removing the popcorn ceiling, fixing cracks and old water damage, and repainting the ceilings in our rental home. We found the estimate to be very fair and asked Esmond to get started. He and his team breathed new life into our 26-year-old home. It looks brand new! We are so glad we went ahead with the project and are thrilled with the results. The work was completed quickly and beautifully, and Esmond kept us updated throughout the entire process with messages and photos. We highly recommend Esmond and his team and will definitely contact him again when we’re ready to fix the settling ceiling cracks in our main home."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

It's generally recommended to hang drywall on the ceiling first before moving on to the walls. This sequence allows the ceiling sheets to provide support for the vertical wall sheets. By attaching the ceiling drywall initially, you establish a solid framework to align and attach the wall panels accurately. This method ensures a seamless and sturdy connection between the ceiling and walls, resulting in a more professional finish.

There are a few ways to figure out if your walls are plaster or drywall, but the pushpin method is probably the easiest option. To try it, choose a part of your wall where you can insert a pushpin or thumbtack without leaving an obvious mark. If it goes in easily, you have drywall. But if the wall is tough to penetrate, that’s plaster.
