"I would absolutely recommend this company. They were very responsive from the beginning. I received a text and phone call within minutes of requesting services. The estimator came by the same day and provided a very fair quote. I hired Elite Drywall Services to remove a french door separating my master bedroom and my sunroom and fill in the space with drywall. The work started the day after I received the quote, and it was completed within 2 days. I couldn't be more pleased with the results. Not only was the work top notch, but the reps were some of the nicest and most professional individuals that I have hired in this state. They showed up when they said they would and thanked me for my business. This was such a pleasant experience that I've already asked them for a quote for another job. I also plan to pass their information to the home builders who are currently remodeling my bathroom. If you are in need of this type of service, please contact this company. You won't be disappointed."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Plaster is denser, harder, and more porous than drywall, so it absorbs moisture differently. This means you’ll often need more prep work, such as thorough sanding, patching, and priming with a high-quality bonding primer. Additionally, you may need more coats of paint to achieve even coverage. While the process takes more time, it helps ensure a durable and professional-looking result.

Drywall anchors won’t work on plaster. Instead, they will more than likely cause more damage and pull out the plaster. The best type of anchors to use on plaster walls are the ones that will bite into the surrounding area, such as molly bolts and toggle bolts. Masonry anchors with expanders on the sides also work for lighter pictures.

Which style of corner bead you choose—whether metal or paper-faced—depends on your preference and if you’re comfortable using metal-cutting tools and a hammer. Metal bead offers superior strength and durability but its installation is slightly more involved. We’d say for most cases, it’s better to use metal bead but if you’re not comfortable working with metal, paper-faced bead will work just fine. 

The person’s skill will affect how many drywall sheets they can hang in one day. Some people can hang 10 or more sheets in a day, while others may only hang six or seven sheets. It also depends on the framing complexity since custom cutting and fitting the drywall can prolong the process.

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.
