"Hiring Luis/Sky Blue painting was the best thing I did in getting my "She Shed/Cottage" finished out. He did the insulation, drywall and painting to such a high level of mastery and professionalism that my husband and I never had any concerns at anytime and reasonably priced. Both he and his assistant always arrived on time and never left early .... constantly working. On one day there was a delay and he communicated with me on a timely basis and assured me that he would be here at a certain time and he did. They were always tidy and picking up after themselves. But what impressed me most of all is the artistic approach and finish Luis took. My she shed is going to be not only my craft room but also my own personal retreat. The shed has an octagon window and the walls didn't exactly line up to make one full size connected wall. It has indentations along the roof line and all sorts of odd angles. However after Luis and I spoke and I explained my vision, he was able to install the drywall and made those walls and angles look like a work of art .....something out of an architectural magazine. His objective for his company is to be a master at what he does .... in other words .... Excellence! The quality of work, the attention to detail and his keen eye, has earned him my highest recommendation. You'll be happy you hired this company .... without a doubt. I'm already looking in the future for Luis to come back and paint the interror of our main house."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Yes, drywall nail pops are a common occurrence in homes, both new and old, resulting from the settling and shifting of the structure over time. Though not present in every room or on every wall, encountering nail pops in different sections of a home is not unusual, particularly if the temperature, humidity, or foundation has experienced changes.

A common cause of separation between a wall and the ceiling is truss lift—this can happen to the ceiling of rooms directly under the attic when the seasons change and wood building materials dry out, shrink, and shift. Roof trusses often dry out at different speeds, and if the bottom pieces dry out faster than the top pieces, they can shrink and pull the attached drywall away from ceilings and walls, causing cracks. Fortunately, truss lift is only a cosmetic problem, not a structural problem, and you can fix it by separating the ceiling drywall from the roof trusses, and patching the cracks.

Knowing what causes drywall damage can help stop it before it starts. Here are some of the most common causes of drywall damage: 

  • Water damage from roof leaks or leaky pipes. 

  • Small holes caused by doorknobs, minor accidents, and rodent infestations. 

  • Wall dents stemming from moving furniture and minor accidents. 

  • Wall cracks that form from a settling foundation or seismic activity. 

  • Nail pops from nails and screws in the walls. 

  • Large holes that are caused by accidents with heavy objects, children and pets, or sporting equipment.

There are six levels of drywall finish, from 0 to 5, that refer to the amount of work performed during the finishing process.

Level 0: Drywall is hung with no finishing work.

Level 1: Tape is placed over the seams between drywall sheets.

Level 2: A thin layer of mud is applied over the tape and screw holes. This level is common for utility rooms or walls that will be covered.

Level 3: A full coat of mud covers the screw holes and tape, but the surface is not sanded. This is often used in garages.

Level 4: This is the most common finish for visible interior walls. It involves applying two coats of mud over seams and screw holes, with sanding between each coat, creating a smooth surface ready for flat paint.

Level 5: This is a high-end finish for luxury homes. It includes full taping, mudding, and sanding, plus a final skim coat over the entire surface before painting.

If you already have plaster walls and ceilings, adding new plaster costs $2 to $10 per square foot. For an average-sized room, that would come out to $1,200 to $10,000. However, the cost to replace plaster with drywall is higher—running between $720 and $1,250 for a 10-by-8-foot wall or ceiling (not including drywall finishing).
