"Emery is very meticulous and what I did note was right after he completed the work was he made sure he cleaned up after himself. Emery is very personable and a master of his craft. He concentrates and takes his time. It was not shoddy and it didnt take him a long time to complete the job. Pricing was very fair. I had two or three quotes and Emery was very fair and competitive. Overall I had a very good experience with Bubble Drywall and Emery himself. I have been very pleased and have referred him several times and never have I heard anything negative about his work."

"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

There are several things you should not do when installing drywall. Common mistakes include: adding too many screws, over-sanding, not adding backing support, and installing drywall unevenly. You also should avoid screwing into the same place twice, installing Sheetrock with tapered edges on the outside, and making too many joints.

This depends on how much plaster is applied and in how many layers, but a decent estimate is around 150 square feet. If you are applying only two coats on a small wall, there is a chance you may only need one or two gallons for the entire project. If you are plastering a large living room wall with high ceilings, using one of the more involved techniques–like Scagliola–that requires several coats, expect the project materials costs to add up quickly. 

You should leave a gap between drywall sheets because they naturally expand and contract along with the building framing as temperature and humidity change. Most pro drywall installers leave a gap of about ⅛ inch between drywall sheets, allowing the sheets to expand, contract, and shift without cracking or becoming damaged. If you don’t leave enough gaps between slabs, the edges will press against each other when they expand, and the pressure can cause visible cracks.

In some minor cases, you can DIY drywall repair with minimal time and money spent. This method is best when you have a hole made by a singular problem, such as accidental furniture moving, and not a continuous problem, like a rodent infestation. 

Knowing what product to use is crucial. For example, small holes only need spackle, whereas large holes might need a new piece of drywall. You can flex your DIY abilities on this project, but if you’d like a second opinion or have a more significant problem, it’s best to call in a drywall repair pro.

You can usually tell if you have plaster or drywall by touch (plaster is harder, colder, and smoother than drywall) or by tapping on it (drywall sounds hollow, plaster does not). If you still cannot tell, peek under an outlet cover and check the cut edges. The rough edges show the composition of the wall. You will see either drywall (two paper sheets sandwiching gypsum material) or only plaster material (no paper sheets).
