"We needed a ceiling plaster repair done quickly so that we could list our house for sale. All the other companies we called were at least a month out from even giving us an estimate. Mr. Guerrero came the day after we called, gave us an estimate and fixed our plaster within five days, even returning several days later to ensure that everything still looked good. Could not be more pleased with his service!"

"Hired them to repair the drywall on one wall and paint the dining room, living room, bathroom, kitchen, hallway, office and ceilings. The drywall guy was amazing and great at his work. The painting was okay. The painters did not prime the wall the drywall guy skimmed and I had to buy more paint for them to coat it two more times. They did tape everything but paint still ended up on the trim and fixture, but the kicker was the black paint spilled in the office on the carpet that they did not attempt to clean up nor offer to have it fixed. We also was having real hardwood flooring installed by Loews in the dining, living room and hallway, and they wanted the job. It started off fine and they took a little longer than we thought. They did scratched the floor in two places and when we pointed it out they got some wood filler and that was how the fixed it. The filler filled the gouge but is not repaired. The price also went up without any compensation for the damage to the new floor. Pointing out the issues I had with the painting, they did make efforts to address my concerns. The workers are great and friendly I just think the boss signs them up for jobs outside of there capabilities sometimes."

"After a "simple" bathroom repainting turned into a nightmare of peeling paint from permanent wallpaper, with damaged drywall as a result, David provided me with options for repairing the walls with a new, cost-conscious finish and then painted the room for me as well. He was extremely punctual and responsive, professional and anxious to provide excellent customer service. He was accurate in how much time the job would take, and his price guarantee made sure that no hidden costs popped up at the last minute. He did a great job, and saved us A LOT of frustration and stress."

"

My wife and I have used World Painting several times over the last four years in two different houses.  The most recent project was a complete makeover of the outside of our home.  We consulted with the World Painting staff on the design (two tones) and the proper colors to use.  We are very happy with the outcomes; both the appearance and the quality of workmanship.

"Weather delays, but not their fault! Very professional and polite. Cleaned up after their work. Would absolutely hire again (actually had them quote some interior work for us). Cesar was great to work with, as was everyone who worked on the house."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

Most handy homeowners can tackle removing texture from unpainted walls. Removing texture from painted walls is a bit trickier. Paint acts as a sealant, so you can’t soften the texture with water. Instead, you’ll have to add a layer of drywall compound known as a skim coat. This process is messy and takes some practice.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

Beadboard is a decorative element and lacks the structural integrity of drywall. It cannot hold much weight and is not meant to be used as an insulator or moisture barrier, like drywall is. In almost all cases, beadboard is placed over an existing wall surface which, in modern days, is usually drywall, but decades ago could have been wood paneling.
