"This review is long overdue for H Drywall. This was the second time using them. I had an issue with water leaking onto a lower unit's ceiling due to my tenant running the a/c. The a/c water seeped through the balcony and traveled onto the lower unit's ceiling. This caused staining and other obvious issues. I searched and search for someone to fix the issue. Only a few people returned my call, Harry (owner) being one of them. Out of everyone that did return my call, Harry was the only one that made me feel confident in their ability to do the job. Everyone else made me feel rushed or gave me an insane high-dollar quote. Again, Harry was easy to work with, and the quote provided was VERY reasonable. Let me stress that again, it was very reasonable. I decided to go with H Drywall. Harry asked for all the pertinent information needed to go to the tenant's unit and make the necessary repair. He and his team were on time, did the job properly, and were true professionals. The tenant and the owner were pleased with the work and even commented on how Harry and his team were so professional and that the quality of the repair was top-notch. I was happy because the tenant and the owner were happy. Rewind to a week ago, the same thing happened with my tenant's a/c water causing the same issue. It was brought to my attention and I told the tenant and the owner I would fix it, they were pleased to hear that I would be using H Drywall again. As stated previously, the repair was made, and Harry and his team were once again, awesome! I will suggest them to all my friends and family! Thank you Harry!"

"Despite being a one man team, Kurt does and amazing job at getting results fast. He completed our big renovation in our 3000 sq ft home in 6 weeks. He is very professional, respectful, punctual and one of the nicest guys we’ve ever met. He has given us priceless advice and always tried to educate us on the whys and whats of a decision so that we can make a smart choice. We completely renovated our home and although we didn’t do any big structural changes, it is a complete transformation and feels like a different space with the exact Hawaiian modern vibe we were hoping for. We could not have such a beautiful comfortable space if it weren’t for Kurt. He helped us source quality but reasonably priced cabinets, flooring and fixtures as well as acted as general contractor for the plumber, electrician and marble counter installations. All of the subcontractors were professional and did great jobs. Kurt showed up on time as promised every single day, even on weekends, and had a goal and promise of what he would finish that day. It was very satisfying and exciting to see the progress made each day of Kurt’s hard work. Kurt takes a lot of pride in the craftsmanship and quality of his work and he didn’t stop until he knew we were happy with the end product. We can’t praise his work ethics, skills, professionalism and dedication to his clients happiness enough. We are very lucky to have had Kurt work on our house and it was honestly a pleasure having such a positive, supportive and caring contractor to work with. We love our new home and it wouldn’t have been this awesome without Kurt’s guidance and hard work."

"They came to look at the job this morning then came back later today with lots of guys and finished my whole project which included taping and texturing a few walls and misc other repairs in about 4 hours. Totally done. Amazing. Great service, friendly crew and great cleanup. I have not gotten the bill yet but I had to answer that question before it would let me submit this review."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.

When used correctly, drywall patch kits can work well. However, there are limitations. Specifically, these kits can only cover holes up to 5 inches in diameter. For anything larger than that, you’ll need to cut out the affected section of drywall and replace it with a new piece. That’s a far more complicated process that involves buying the right type of drywall, finding the wall studs, cutting into your wall, and screwing the replacement drywall in place.

The easiest way to cut holes in drywall for electrical boxes is to use a spiral saw with a drywall router bit. Hang the drywall without cutting out a hole for the box, but make sure you measure and mark where the box is located on the wall. Once you screw in the drywall sheet, drill a small hole into the box void, insert the spiral saw bit, and move it around the edge of the box using the inside wall as a guide. You can also use an oscillating multi-tool with an electrical box cutout for fast, professional results.

Plaster is a beautiful finish but is labor-intensive to install and remove. It’s vulnerable to cracking and more sensitive to moisture variance than drywall. Installing plaster on a new wall is an expensive process that can take days to weeks, depending on the scope. Removing a plaster wall can also be quite expensive and time-consuming.
