"i had jorge come in to reinstill some drywall and lay down some flooring - both tile and vinyl - that had to be replaced due to water damage. He was responsive, thorough and did really good work in a quick amount of time. I would definitely use him again."

"I have been a customer since 2015 I own rental units in the area, and Eric has done pretty much everything I needed through the years from Windows, doors, drywall, painting, flooring, you name it. He's always done a good job and communicates very well with my tenants. He is the only vendor I have kept working with. I live out of state now and I am very glad I have someone I can count and trust."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Drying alone can take 1 to 4 hours to dry to the touch per plaster layer, but some types of plaster take several hours longer to dry. However, this doesn’t mean the job is done because plaster doesn’t fully harden until it cures, which can take a few days to a couple of weeks. It may take even longer if you’re building a new, pretty thick plaster wall. Allow the plaster to cure before painting it.

Yes, a fan can help drywall mud dry faster by improving air circulation and reducing humidity in the room. Drywall mud dries through evaporation, so increasing airflow speeds up this process. However, you should position the fan to blow across the room rather than directly on the wet mud. This helps prevent drying too quickly, which can cause cracking. You should also use a dehumidifier if high humidity is an issue.

Plaster is denser, harder, and more porous than drywall, so it absorbs moisture differently. This means you’ll often need more prep work, such as thorough sanding, patching, and priming with a high-quality bonding primer. Additionally, you may need more coats of paint to achieve even coverage. While the process takes more time, it helps ensure a durable and professional-looking result.

Regularly in areas prone to moisture or high traffic to catch issues early.

How you hang the drywall can affect the finishing process. It's often easier to finish horizontal drywall panels, as the seams run across the wall rather than up and down. Standard drywall panels are 48 inches wide, so the seam is easy to reach without bending down or stretching your arms.
