"Carmen and his team were at our home to install drywall and we hired him separately to do our fireplace stone install. His attention to detail and hard work ethic is unseen these days. He did a beautiful job, worked with us to pick the perfect grout color, design of the stone, etc. and then cleaned up so nicely each day. After building a house, we’ve seen the full range of contractors and Carmen stuck out as one of the really professional ones! Can’t recommend enough!"

"Assured quality did an amazing job with remodeling my home. The original work in the home was terrible from the paint to the trim. Assured quality made sure I noticed the difference and was so detail oriented! I will be sure to call Juan again if I ever need any further renovations done in my house!"

"They arrived when they said. I think it was early afternoon.  I let them in and went back to work. When I got home that evening I thought they would still be there but they were gone and the job was done. They came by later to pick up the check. Friendly and they know what they are doing. Plaster work is a specialty and when you have older homes sometimes you  have to pay more.  I  thought it was a bit pricey but  it was plaster work and I am not familiar with pricing, so it may have been right on.

"They did so much more then painting. They painted my Kitchen, living rooms, office, and basement ceiling. also did drywall patching as needed. Did an excellent job with sanding and staining all of my windows. The Dreesen Brothers are the "jack of all trades" . They also, power washed my front porch and my deck. They are very trust worthy and are men of their word. An excellent team. I would hire them anytime.."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can usually tell if you have plaster or drywall by touch (plaster is harder, colder, and smoother than drywall) or by tapping on it (drywall sounds hollow, plaster does not). If you still cannot tell, peek under an outlet cover and check the cut edges. The rough edges show the composition of the wall. You will see either drywall (two paper sheets sandwiching gypsum material) or only plaster material (no paper sheets).

Certain drywall textures, like sand and sometimes popcorn, can be smoothed by applying skim coats, sanding the walls, or chipping away the texture. However, it’s worth considering removing the texture and starting with a blank canvas. Smoothing textured walls requires a lot of sandpaper and elbow grease and can take longer than just outright removing the texture.

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.

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

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.
