"Mr. Zavala and his crew repaired the drywall in my mother-in law's house. The drywall was damaged in several places by a plumber searching for a leak. Their work was so good I hired them to do additional work."

"Philip with Peachtree Fix sent out Harold to our home for some drywall repair and paint touch ups. He was amazing on all levels! He was kind and respectful of our home. He left it the way he found it. He was careful to protect us from breathing in drywall from the sanding. And his finishing paint blending and touch ups are seamless and look great. Price is reasonable, as well. Overall, thumbs up and highly recommend! Thank you Peachtree Fix!"

"This has been the best service Iâ ve experienced. Leo provides great customer service and is very thorough. Letâ s not forget the best pricing in town along with quality work. I canâ t ask for anything more. He repaired my back door jams and baseboard along my stairwell. He will be coming back to paint the whole interior of my 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath house in the next week or so. Just his professionalism and knowledge alone during his visit when he came to give an estimate had me sold. I HIGHLY recommend his services to anyone and everyone. He will painting my sister's home as well. I guarantee you will NOT be disappointed."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

While every home has its own unique needs, ceiling drywall installation typically follows a staggered or stepped pattern to enhance structural integrity and reduce the visibility of seams. Starting from one corner, sheets are placed perpendicular to the ceiling joists, with the ends of adjacent sheets meeting along the center of the joist. The next row begins with a half sheet, ensuring joints don't align vertically. This alternating pattern, combined with proper taping and mudding, creates a seamless appearance and strengthens the ceiling structure, minimizing the risk of cracks over time.

While not always necessary, you can glue a drywall ceiling in addition to using screws or nails. Drywall is typically secured to ceiling joists with fasteners, which is often sufficient. However, adding construction adhesive can offer benefits like preventing sagging, bridging gaps, and reducing air leaks for better energy efficiency. It may also be used for specific acoustic or insulation needs. On the other hand, many professionals advise against it because properly placed screws make the drywall structural, glue doesn't add strength, and it makes future repairs or replacements significantly more difficult. Ultimately, it's best to follow local building codes and project-specific requirements to decide if adhesive is right for your ceiling.

A jigsaw is commonly used to cut holes in drywall. It offers versatility and precision, making it suitable for creating circular or irregular openings. When equipped with the right blade, a jigsaw can swiftly and cleanly cut through drywall, making it a good choice for DIY projects.

Walls should be as smooth as possible before applying peel-and-stick wallpaper. Although you technically can apply wallpaper on textured walls, the peel-and-stick variety won’t last long without a clean, smooth surface for the adhesive to stick to. If you have textured walls, consult a pro about removing the textured finish before moving forward with wallpaper.
