"Thomas drywalled and painted our garage. His work was excellent but more importantly he?s the ultimate professional. Thomas arrived on time each day and kept us informed on everything. His price was fair and billing easy. I definitely would hire him again."

Customers say: Terrific value

"I am thrilled with the work DTI (Ed) did for me. He was prompt; gave me fair prices and did a lot of different things on my old house in short order. He fixed one toiled and replaced two others; installed a new disposal unit (and added a switch for it) and a new kitchen faucet; and replaced three a total of four faucets in the basement / laundry areas. Rarely was a project just as I'd explained it so his willingness to make changes to meet the realities was most welcome. Every work area was left better than when he started and all old material and trash was removed. He is a cheerful fellow who I enjoyed chatting with and my dog loves him (and he was really nice to her). I couldn't be more pleased!"

"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."

"My husband and I were looking to get some drywall repair projects done ASAP. Chris was able to come by within a few hours of my request on Home Advisor to give us a quote, which was very reasonable. The next day him and his crew began the project. The crew was friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. The drywall repairs look awesome! The best part was they took the time to thoroughly clean up after their projects! I am glad I found Caldwell Remodeling and will certainly use them in the future and recommend them to friends and family."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Both plaster and drywall are durable wall finishes, but they differ significantly in installation, cost, performance, and aesthetics.

Installation & Cost: Drywall installation is faster and more affordable, typically costing $1.50 to $3 per square foot. It uses premade sheets, making it a more accessible DIY project. Plastering is a labor-intensive craft that requires specialized skills, pushing costs to $2 to $10 per square foot. It involves applying a wet paste over a lath framework.

Durability & Performance: Plaster is generally more durable, longer-lasting, and provides superior soundproofing. It is also a better insulator, which can help reduce energy costs. Drywall is easier to remove for future renovations.

Aesthetics: Drywall provides a smooth, uniform surface ready for paint or texture. Plaster offers a high-end, naturally textured look that can hide imperfections and is often preferred for achieving a classic or historic aesthetic.

Which is better? The choice depends on your priorities. Drywall is ideal for those prioritizing a lower upfront cost, faster installation, and DIY potential. Plaster is the better option for a higher-end project where durability, soundproofing, and a unique, premium finish are more important than the initial cost.

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.

Costs depend on damage extent of damage, labor, finishing, and whether mold remediation is needed.

If you’re looking for a reliable plaster repair company, you should start by researching local companies in your area and reviewing their status with the Better Business Bureau. Next, you can contact the potential companies to ask about experience levels, get a list of references, and ask for examples of past work. If you have a textured wall, consider asking if they have examples or references for that particular texture. This method should help you narrow your search even further. You may also want to ask each company if they provide a warranty for their work.

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.
