"I can't say enough great things about Jauch Painting. Brian came out and gave me a reasonable quote for the work, he was on time and very professional. Mike and James made drywall repairs to my ceilings, addressing issues that went well outside the scope of work. They were on time, and very professional as well. They covered and protected my floors, cabinets, counters and light fixtures. They wiped down and vacuumed up any drywall dust that was visible. They kept me informed regarding the status of the job and finished the job in a timely manner. I've had a couple persistent nail pops (old home) and they have come back and repaired them without question. Any other repairs and painting I might need will be done by Jauch Painting & Decorating. Thanks Guys!!"

"Great job! Had ceiling and wall drywall repair after water damage. Friendly and courteous. Called back quickly and always showed up on the days we discussed. Gene went the extra mile in ensuring the ceiling texture matched even though the existing pattern was done 30 years ago with tools that are no longer available."

"Great job by Cesar! Very professional and great communication. Both my bedroom and bathroom look great! Always cleaned up after he left and vacuumed. The job took three days and it was well worth it. Cesar went way out of his way to fix things that needed to get done even without asking. Thank you Cesar"

My name is Isidro but I go by Izzy, I’m a 36 y/o family man with a supportive wife and three kids. I’m a ((passionate)) taper and drywall finisher, I also enjoy doing interior painting and luxury wall designs, texture, and venetian plaster. I’m an honest and reliable worker with attention to detail who prioritizes customer satisfaction. I have worked as a district painter for township school district 211 and for drywall companies such as Mjs Drywall and Patch Masters of North Shore, my niche is taping and finishing but look forward to providing you with quality work!

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Textured walls can increase the value of your home if the style is modern and seen as a desirable feature and not something a prospective buyer would need to remedy. A good example of this is popcorn texture versus Venetian plaster. The plaster wall would add value to your home, whereas the popcorn texture may be something a new buyer would want to remove.

Small patches can be DIY, but professionals handle large-scale repairs with seamless results.

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.

Choose a drill bit that is the size of the screws of the anchors you will use. You aren’t drilling through metal or concrete—hopefully—so any standard twist, wooden or all-purpose drill bit will work fine. It’s also important to have a screwdriver capable of drilling through the drywall and into the stud. The good news is most available drills, even the older ones, can do this with no issue.

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.
