"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

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.

Water-damaged drywall should almost always be replaced. Not only does it look bad, it’s a breeding ground for toxic mold. Even if you think the area is dry and there’s no active leak, the only way to be sure is to cut out the damaged area and see for yourself.

It doesn’t matter which way you lay drywall, and you can choose to install it horizontally or vertically depending on the size of the wall and how tall the ceiling is. It’s easier to lay drywall sheets vertically if you have a taller ceiling, but laying sheets horizontally makes it easier to apply joint compound.

A utility knife is sharp enough to score the drywall and it may work in a pinch for outlet box holes. However, one of the best tools for drywall when you need to make exact cuts for an outlet box quickly is a drywall saw. This handheld tool has a longer blade than a utility knife, so it penetrates the thickness of the drywall easily. The design of its handle and the teeth in its blade make it easier to control while cutting quicker than you can with a utility knife.

If you only have tiny holes in your drywall (for example, dents or nail marks), you probably won’t need a patch kit. Instead, you can plug the hole with a small amount of spackle. Once the spackle dries, you can sand the area and paint over it—just like you would in the steps outlined above.
