"? 1 Star I would strongly caution anyone from hiring this drywall contractor. He completely pulled a bait and switch on me. His original quote clearly stated the job would include taping, mudding, sanding, and priming ? but after doing only the taping and mudding, he suddenly claimed sanding and priming were ?extra" To make matters worse, the mudding work he did do is full of bubbles and looks terrible. When I tried to discuss it with him and find a solution, he hung up on me. Extremely unprofessional and dishonest from start to finish. Don?t make the same mistake I did ? look elsewhere for someone who stands behind their word and does quality work."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You shouldn’t leave drywall outside overnight, especially if you live in a wet or humid climate. The moisture from humidity, rain, or other elements can damage the drywall, making it weaker and susceptible to mold growth. Stash any extra drywall in a dry area away from the elements to protect it from moisture.

There are several things you should not do when installing drywall. Common mistakes include: adding too many screws, over-sanding, not adding backing support, and installing drywall unevenly. You also should avoid screwing into the same place twice, installing Sheetrock with tapered edges on the outside, and making too many joints.

Installation typically takes 1-2 weeks, depending on the wall’s size and site conditions.

Yes, you can usually add a pocket door to an existing wall if it’s not load-bearing. If you don’t know, check with a professional. Installing a pocket door on a non-load-bearing interior wall is easiest, with no hidden electrical, plumbing, or ductwork. If you don’t know how to check this, hiring a pro to check for you or completing the project is best.

You can drywall over plaster, but there are some things to consider. First, installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall’s thickness. This could create challenges for window and door frames that no longer fit the wall’s thickness. You may also have to adjust power outlets so they are accessible. When done right, drywall can create a smooth, flat appearance, but it’s best when handled by professionals.
