"We are so glad we hired Eddie and his Team for our basement drywall installation! They completed the drywall for our bathroom and around our mechanical area. We reached out for a quote and Eddie came out that same week, and was able to start our project within a few days. They were very professional and did an amazing job cutting the drywall to the basement ceiling (we will be doing a blackout ceiling). We will absolutely be calling them when we are ready to proceed with the next portion of our basement!"

"Kevin was very professional, courteous and understanding person. Always responded to phone calls and any questions I had. He had good team that did the job satisfactory. On the other side, the job has become so specialized that while installing the dry wall of the ceiling, if a crack is noticed on the connecting drywall of the wall, it will not be informed nor repaired as it is not in the contract. I had to hire another guy to do the repair in drywall of the wall before painting. I still recommend him to get the job done. I still have to see how Kevin responds to phone calls about any issues, if at all arise later."

"Cannot even tell we had waterlogged drywall! He cut out the wet stuff, installed new drywall, taped and mudded and painted. My wife and kids were all shocked you cannot even tell where the replacement drywall begins and ends. Excellent work!"

"Dave and his crew were categorically outstanding. Our lower level was a mess after a new sump was installed. It required new drywall and some drywall damage repair and painting. New trim was installed. Finally, a laminate floor was installed. Everything used was top quality. No corners were cut. They were focused on a quality installation and that's exactly what we got. The rest of the house was protected from dust, footprints, and other damage. Every evening the area was left clean and dust-free. When the project was done I felt as though I lost friends. I found Dave to be fair, clear, and honest to a fault. He is a good person. I apologize to Dave for the delay in posting this. But it gives me an opportunity to say it still looks as good as it did on completion. We could not be any happier. It was our fortune to find him. The final cost was very fair."

"MJ did a great job repairing some drywall damage caused by the removal of a chair rail. He was able to come out the day after I accepted his estimate. He set up quickly and was very attentive in ensuring his work met his high standards. He returned later the same day, after the skim coating had dried, to sand and prime. I am very pleased with the results and will reach out to him again for future project."

"Rick did a great job on a difficult project that included removing sub-par work by previous contractors, mating new drywall to existing plaster, repairing 57 y.o. plaster walls and ceilings then painting. Looks great and he is the consummate professional."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Depending on the place where the cutting error occurred, you may be able to fix it. Learning how to patch a hole in drywall is challenging, but if you can tape and mud drywall, you can do it. Having said that, patching is time consuming. Early in the installation process, you may find that it’s easier and far less time consuming to just start over with a new sheet of drywall, cutting a new hole in the right spot. You may be able to use part of the incorrectly cut piece elsewhere, so it’s not completely wasted.

The amount of drywall you need for a 1,000-square-foot basement depends on the ceiling height, angles, number of doors and windows, and more. To find the wall square footage, multiply the width and height of each wall, minus any gaps from windows or doors, and add the totals together. You’ll also need enough drywood nails or screws to install the drywall correctly.

Eco-friendly options reduce environmental impact and often improve indoor air quality.

It’s less costly to drywall a fireplace than shiplapping it since material costs are higher for shiplap. However, if you’re DIYing the project, shiplap is less expensive since you won’t have to pay for labor. With drywall, getting a smooth finish is difficult unless you’re a pro. Shiplap is ideal for an accent wall or unique space, such as around a fireplace, since it adds texture and gives off a cozy vibe.

Options include bricks, natural stone, and concrete blocks. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and budget.
