"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

Most handy homeowners can tackle removing texture from unpainted walls. Removing texture from painted walls is a bit trickier. Paint acts as a sealant, so you can’t soften the texture with water. Instead, you’ll have to add a layer of drywall compound known as a skim coat. This process is messy and takes some practice.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

If you plan on heating your garage, you must install a vapor barrier when drywalling the garage. A vapor barrier protects your garage from frost and mold that can occur through condensation. If your garage is unheated, you don't need to install a vapor barrier. The only exception is if you regularly crank the heat in your car before getting in it. In this case, you may still want to install a vapor barrier, as your car can heat your garage.

When sanding drywall mud, you’re going to create a very fine dust that may contain silica. Silica dust contains crystalline silica, which can cause long-term illnesses for people who inhale it in significant quantities. Wear a mask while sanding drywall. Then dampen a drywall sponge to wipe the dust off the drywall, helping to reduce the amount of dust that may become airborne.

You can put drywall mud over paint to even out the surface or entirely resurface it. Sand the surface with 280-grit sandpaper, vacuum the debris and dust with a shop vac, and clean it with a slightly damp cloth. Allow the surface to dry. Apply drywall primer, especially if you’re skim-coating an entire wall. Apply the right type of drywall mud over the surface and smooth it with a trowel. Allow the layer to cure fully, then sand it before applying another layer or painting it.
