"Josh was friendly and responsive on the job. His drywall work was very good and he took the time to listen. Initially, when he repaired my bathroom wall, he missed a bubble, but when it was brought to his attention, he immediately corrected it and said his repair would last. He did seem rushed at times and his cleanup was not as good as it should have been and that's why I can't rate him 5 stars."

Before The Patch Boys, the best available options for repairing dents, cracks, and holes in walls and ceiling were to call your neighborhood handyman, hope a general contractor could make time in between larger jobs, or attempt to do it yourself. All of these options still exist, but they won’t provide nearly the same benefits, quality of results or stress-free experience that a professional drywall company can. Here are some of the key ways The Patch Boys stand out from the others that might tackle drywall and plaster repair jobs

"After my basement flooded, I was in need of a good flooring installer to finish out my basement. Aaron (the owner) came highly recommended from a work colleague. I am very happy with the work. Great price, and he was in and out in two days! Couldn't ask for better contractor!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

If you already have plaster walls and ceilings, adding new plaster costs $2 to $10 per square foot. For an average-sized room, that would come out to $1,200 to $10,000. However, the cost to replace plaster with drywall is higher—running between $720 and $1,250 for a 10-by-8-foot wall or ceiling (not including drywall finishing).

You do not need to drywall over most types of garage insulation. However, doing so can increase noise reduction, make the space more attractive, and keep children and pets from touching harmful fiberglass insulation. If you’re using cellulose or some other type of blown-in insulation (fiberglass and mineral wool are common), you will need drywall to contain the insulation material.

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.

You can usually tell if you have plaster or drywall by touch (plaster is harder, colder, and smoother than drywall) or by tapping on it (drywall sounds hollow, plaster does not). If you still cannot tell, peek under an outlet cover and check the cut edges. The rough edges show the composition of the wall. You will see either drywall (two paper sheets sandwiching gypsum material) or only plaster material (no paper sheets).

The two most common drywall thicknesses for ceilings are 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch. For most standard residential applications, 1/2-inch drywall is sufficient and widely used. It provides adequate support and is lighter and easier to handle during installation compared to thicker sheets. However, 5/8-inch drywall is often used for specific cases where additional benefits are needed. It is heavier but provides superior sound dampening and fire resistance. You should consider using 5/8-inch drywall for ceilings in commercial buildings, between a garage and a living space, or above a finished basement to meet building codes or for enhanced soundproofing.
