"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

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

Applying plaster to a wall will usually cost between $2 and $10 per square foot for both the material and labor. The cost will vary based on the quality of the plaster you’re using and whether or not prep work is required before the work begins. Wall prep can add up to about 10% to your total costs. Plastering exterior walls can be more expensive in many cases because they are taller and require scaffolding and safety equipment.

It’s always better to follow proven drywall repair tips and fix the seams that look bad. However, if you simply want to make them less noticeable until you have time to fix them, you can use paint. A darker color of paint makes bad drywall tape seams less noticeable than light-colored paint. Matte paint hides bad seams better than glossy paint does, too.

You can paint over plaster, but repair any damage to the plaster first, or the paint will crack and bubble. You should also prepare the surface of the plaster to accept paint, which gives your paint job the best chance of looking good and lasting a long time. Before applying the color you want, apply a coat or two of primer. Additionally, use latex paint, and choose a latex paint with a satin finish for areas with dampness, like bathrooms.

Yes, any parts of drywall that are wet or overly moist will need to be replaced. Drywall is intended to be dry (it’s in the name, after all.), as excess moisture can lead to mold and mildew and eventually corrode your home’s foundational building pieces. Do regular inspections in your home to make sure all your plumbing is intact and in good condition—this will go a long way toward preventing leaks.
