"I had a very positive experience with Edwin and YMY drywall. This past summer (July 2024), I needed to have ceiling drywall taken down and new ceiling drywall installed in the process of adding insulation. I ended up using YMY for all the drywall work and it was a good experience. The owner, Edwin, is very professional and organized. His quote was very competitive he was very receptive to my questions and requests during the process. It was clear he wanted to make sure I was satisfied with the outcome. His adult children also work for him, which I took as a good sign. After the drywall work was done, I ended up hiring YMY to paint the ceiling and it came out well, too. I would hire YMY again if I had another project."

"The company sent out "Alex". The job was to replace a small wall cabinet that fell from a previous handyman installed. Turns out the cabinet was installed without a wood anchor in the wall. Alex installed wood anchors in an open space in the wall, and showed me how it could not be pulled out. He repaired the sheetrock, blow-dried the wet mud, sanded it smooth, and matched the paint perfectly, then replaced the cabinet strong enough to sit on top of it ...all in 2.5 hours!!! Seriously EXCELLENT PROFESSIONAL, quicker than expected time start to finish by Alex!!!! He was on time and very pleasant, neat and cleaned up the work space like he was never there. I am so happy & grateful. Thank you!"

"I hired OTS Enterprises to remove the popcorn acoustic ceiling in my home, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. The crew was professional, on time, and very respectful of my space. They took the time to properly prep the area, protect everything, and clean up after the work was done. The ceiling came out smooth and looks completely refreshed. You can tell they take pride in their work and pay attention to the details. Communication was clear throughout the process, and they delivered exactly what they promised. If you’re looking for someone to remove popcorn ceilings and do it the right way, I would definitely recommend OTS Enterprises."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.

A local drywall contractor can texture your drywall for you. Drywall contractors are a better choice than general handy people because the contractors have a lot of experience working with drywall mud. The process is somewhat of an art thanks to the complexity of working with the mud, so call in a drywall pro who knows what they’re doing.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

Damp plaster does dry out, although the drying time depends on several factors, including the type of plaster, the surrounding temperature, moisture content, and the extent of the dampness. Sometimes, it can take weeks or months for wall plaster to dry naturally.
