"Javon was beyond incredible. From start to finish, he was simply outstanding. The project turned out absolutely perfectly...he worked quickly and I swear there was not a speck of drywall dust in my house when he left. I am still not sure how that was possible, but wow! I honestly wish every single professional that crosses my path was like Javon - my world would be overwhelmingly better for it. Javon not only is an EXCEPTIONAL contractor (he's been doing drywall since he was 16 years old!!) but he is also fantastic at communication and follow up - which makes a big difference to me! He is friendly and respectful of my home, which also was really great. Honestly, I will call Javon first for any of my future projects and will proudly recommend Javon to any of my neighbors, friends and family. He is TOP NOTCH and you should call him without question for any project you have. Javon is THE BEST, hands down."

Customers say: True professional

"Emery is very meticulous and what I did note was right after he completed the work was he made sure he cleaned up after himself. Emery is very personable and a master of his craft. He concentrates and takes his time. It was not shoddy and it didnt take him a long time to complete the job. Pricing was very fair. I had two or three quotes and Emery was very fair and competitive. Overall I had a very good experience with Bubble Drywall and Emery himself. I have been very pleased and have referred him several times and never have I heard anything negative about his work."

"They did a great job. They were very careful to curtain off the work area to keep drywall dust out of the other areas of our home. Very thorough. Did exactly what was agreed on and finished in a timely manner. I am hiring them for another job in January"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.

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.

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

If you're comfortable hanging drywall yourself, you may be comfortable finishing it. But it's worth noting that finishing drywall adds several steps to the process and a lot of waiting time. Hiring a drywall installer may be the way to go if you'd rather spend your time doing other things or are nervous about leaving a rough surface.

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.
