"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."

"I called just to have my 10 shutters painted. Alex answered and said he would be over in less than an hour to give me an estimate. He arrived within that time frame. He gave me a quote, which we agreed on, and said he could start immediately. He finished the job and then asked if I would like him to paint the front door. We agreed on a price, and he painted the door. The work was quick and professional. The front of my house now has a clean, fresh look to it. He cleaned up afterward and and he passed his business card to me. I would highly recommend Alex or A&S painting services to any home owner for painting jobs, large and small. A&S also does other work such as large painting jobs, power washing, carpentry, etc."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

There are several benefits to wet-sanding drywall, but the main perk is that it produces far less dust than dry-sanding. As a result, wet-sanding poses fewer health risks and makes less of a mess in your home. Plus, damp sponges are less abrasive than sandpaper, so there’s a smaller chance of scratching or damaging the drywall paper. Wet-sanding also creates a smoother finish than dry-sanding.

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.

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.

The best way to make long, straight cuts is to use a utility knife and a T-square to score the sheet, snap along the score, and then finish the cut by cutting through the paper on the opposite side with the utility knife. If you’re making small cuts, curved cuts, or cutouts for electrical boxes or light fixtures, you can use a manual jab saw to keep costs down, but an electric spiral saw or oscillating multi-tool will get the cleanest, fastest cuts possible.

To maintain plaster walls, inspect them regularly for cracks and seal them early. Clean the walls by dusting regularly or using a gentle, damp cloth. It's also important to avoid moisture exposure. Repainting as needed will help maintain the wall's appearance and longevity.
