When should I not use drywall anchors?

• <div><p>Drywall anchors aren’t necessary if there’s a stud behind the wall where you’ll be working. Studs are strong enough to support screws on their own, but they don’t run throughout the wall. If you’re doing a project that involves the entire wall and not just one part (like hanging a small painting or photo), odds are you’ll need drywall anchors at some point in the process. </p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to apply skip-trowel drywall texture?

• <div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-skip-trowel-drywall.htm">cost to apply a skip-trowel drywall</a> texture to walls is $1.25 to $2.00 per square foot. Ceilings cost slightly more because of the increased difficulty of working overhead. Additional cost factors include any drywall repairs and removal of existing textures or wallpaper. </p></div>

Q: How much weight can a nail in drywall hold?

• <div><p>A nail in drywall cannot hold very much&mdash;usually only a few pounds. A nail in a stud can add support and hold around 20 pounds. If you are trying to hang something heavier, get some help from drywall anchors&mdash;toggle bolts are very strong and able to withstand more weight. </p></div>

Q: Should you put new drywall over old drywall?

• <div><p>While you can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/can-you-put-drywall-over-drywall.htm">put new drywall over old drywall</a>, it&rsquo;s not always the best option. In some cases, drywalling over drywall can make it harder to find wires and pipes behind your walls and conceal more serious problems with your walls. It can also make the room smaller. On the plus side, putting drywall over drywall can improve soundproofing and insulation. Plus, it&rsquo;s often less expensive than tearing down and adding new drywall.</p></div>

Q: Does drywall need to be replaced after water damage?

• <div><p>Water-damaged drywall should almost always be replaced. Not only does it look bad, it&rsquo;s a breeding ground for toxic mold. Even if you think the area is dry and there&rsquo;s no active leak, the only way to be sure is to cut out the damaged area and see for yourself.</p></div>

They did a fabulous job! We are totally pleased with the result. It took so much work to get all the old wallpaper off and holes filled and then totally repainted after the removal of curtain rods and shelves. Gary and Rob were easy to work with, especially when I changed my mind about the...

Everything on this project has progressed smoothly from start to the current stage. There were no real hiccups that weren't easily dealt with. A wall was moved, which put a heater vent from inside to outside the bathroom. They simply cut a new hole inside the bathroom, and covered over the old...

Brett did great. He was very good about cleaning up and making sure he didn't get dust everywhere. He worked with me to make decision and took the time to explain the the different options. If we ever needed someone to drywall again we would use him.

"The job was done to satisfaction. I would not recommend due to the lack of communication and time management, I was scheduled for for an early appointment and no one showed, after I called it was pushed multiple times after that. I did agree to the price, but after consulting others I paid way too much for what was done. When it came time for the gentleman to collect payment you bet he was ontime, even a bit early."
