"Total Drywall is our go-to for all sheet rocking and ceiling texturing. They have done our whole house, replacing all acoustic/popcorn ceilings with knock down/executive texturing. They also did a fantastic job in our basement, following sump pump failure. They replaced the lower portion of the sheetrock and textured all the walls in our finished basement. Total Drywall is very professional and always provide excellent workmanship. I highly recommend these guys!"

Customers say: True professional

"Andy's crew is very professional and did a great job. My home was difficult to get drywall into. They carried each sheet upstairs. Walls finished very well. Dedicated spray equipment created smooth application of knock down texture. Ceilings Looks great. No damage. No surprises. Priced right, but they weren't the cheapest option. On time. No excuses. They protected my property and cleaned up after themselves. As a property manager, I will definitely use Scott's again."

"Boot on our roof was not installed correctly when house was built. After a few hard rains we noticed leaking in our ceiling. Tim was really great to work with. He explained the process and leak issue so I was able to understand. I will definitely call Tim again for any roofing or construction issues. Extremely happy with services provided.

"I contacted three company off of Angies List. One, although under the basement repair category, did not provide the services I required. I checked the BBB on the other two before obtaining estimates from the other two. One provided the slickest/best presentation but wanted to do more than I felt the job called for. Plus they could not start the job for six weeks and even considering the questionable extras the cost was too high. Nor did their costs include any prep or finish work for the job; just fixing the walls & extensive water problem.

Better Basement Technologies showed me what I needed plus some extras that I might want to consider although not necessary for the repair. The sales rep also said he would sub-contract the initial prep work (paneling/carpet removal, framing, drywall installation with taping/mudding  and the outside landscaping including concrete patio tear-out & sodding  to complete the job: all at a much less price and they could start the following week.

All work was done promptly/professionally except for a few minor delays because of the weather. I opted to have paneling installed instead of dry wall plus have the carpentry crew do a more extensive job in the basement and do some roof repair to my screened in porch. "

"David met with my husband and I to see what our plans were for our basement. He was very patient as both my husband and I had our own ideas still. He gave us options and a rough estimate with in 3 days of our first meeting.  As David and his crew started to reconstruction of our basement some of our needs changed. After the living area was constructed we decided to add a wet bar, which turned out beautiful. The spare bedrooms and extra bathroom turned out amazing. We added a Jacuzzi tub ( that was something I really wanted) and the tile work was detailed and flawless, as was the rest of the laminate flooring they laid. From start to finish we had an excellent experience with David and his crew.  I would highly recommend them for any size project. What we thought we wanted some what changed along the way and he was very patient and accommodating. I definitely feel that the price was fair and we couldn't be happier with our new remodel. Thank you Daughenbaugh Construction."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

It is more difficult to drywall a ceiling than it is to drywall a wall, but not so hard that DIYers can’t tackle it. One of the main issues with hanging drywall on your ceiling is getting it into place. Drywall isn’t light so, if you are hanging full drywall panels, you will need at least two (it’s better with more) people to hold the panel while you drill it into the ceiling as a single piece can weigh between 40 and 60 pounds and will need to be held in place for up to 10 minutes.

It’s always better to follow proven drywall repair tips and fix the seams that look bad. However, if you simply want to make them less noticeable until you have time to fix them, you can use paint. A darker color of paint makes bad drywall tape seams less noticeable than light-colored paint. Matte paint hides bad seams better than glossy paint does, too.

While a normal moisture level for drywall is between 5% and 12%, replacement is recommended if you get consistent readings above 17%. At this level, the drywall is likely too compromised by extensive moisture damage to be considered safe. You can replace either the entire sheet or just the affected section. If you are unsure after a visual inspection, it is best to have a contractor or water restoration provider use a professional moisture meter to get an accurate reading.

Pros ensure smooth finishes and lasting repairs, avoiding visible patches.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.
