"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!"

"Patch Boys did an outstanding job repairing the drywall cracks in my home. The worker (Juan) showed up on time and stayed until all the work was completed to my satisfaction. Once all work was completed he cleaned up all work debris."

"The Bici Brothers did a fantastic job on my drywall and paint project! They were timely on their communication, very professional with their work, and had great attention to detail. They went above and beyond and I would definitely hire them again for my next project. I couldn’t be happier with the results and at a fair price too!"

"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's crew was excellent. They installed new drywall in an existing skylight well, and repaired cracks in our ceiling in several rooms. They were very clean and were very meticulous... Fantastic paint lines! Would definitely hire them again!"

"We could not have been more satisfied with Dirty Deeds. We chose the virtual consultation option via Yelp and got a response from Jay within 10 minutes. After asking questions to get a better understanding of the project, he gave us a quote and told us he could be out there the following morning. We were astonished at the quick turnaround and grateful since we are looking to put our house on the market in the very near future. When Jay arrived with his team member, Juan, he re-explained what the project would entail and then Juan got to work. Juan ensured everything was covered and protected from the drywall dust/paint drips and worked extremely efficiently. Within 6 hours, our project was complete. As we are looking for a new home to purchase, we will definitely be reaching out to Dirty Deeds for any renovation needs."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

It’s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you’re referring to cracked, in which case that’s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it’s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage.

The short answer is yes, a sagging plaster ceiling is dangerous. Sagging plaster on a wall is something you should fix immediately, but it isn’t a major concern. If the same type of sagging occurs on a ceiling, however, you could be in danger of your ceiling falling in large chunks. When plaster sags, it loses its strength and ability to hold itself up. The bonds that hold it together are strong, though, so if a sagging area falls, it will take large pieces down with it.

If you want to reduce sound transmission throughout your home, soundproofing drywall is a better choice than standard drywall. However, simply installing soundproofing drywall may not completely block out noise. You’ll get the best results from incorporating it into a larger soundproofing plan that includes proper insulation and framing studs.

Very little. One inch of water can stain walls, warp wood, and create a perfect environment for mold growth. One to two inches of water can do significant damage to drywall, insulation, and electrical systems. Anything over that is considered an extensive flood, often resulting in severe structural damage.

Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.
