"Repeat customer here--After George and his team installed a couple of doors on our house, we hired them again to renovate our sunroom. They did a terrific job! They installed insulation, drywall, floor and window trim, and a tile floor. George and his team are thorough and show great attention to detail. Very communicative and always a pleasure to work with. He and his team can do just about anything--highly recommend them for any remodeling needs."

"I cannot say enough good things about the work Marc did. I needed new closet doors installed for our bedroom. After going through many big box offers and not having a return call, nor my down payment returned, I found Marc. He told me when he could be at my house and kept his word. We talked about options and he sent me his prices. On the day of installation he came in and got the job done. Neatly! He even made friends with my dog 😁. I highly recommend him to anyone!!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

While every home has its own unique needs, ceiling drywall installation typically follows a staggered or stepped pattern to enhance structural integrity and reduce the visibility of seams. Starting from one corner, sheets are placed perpendicular to the ceiling joists, with the ends of adjacent sheets meeting along the center of the joist. The next row begins with a half sheet, ensuring joints don't align vertically. This alternating pattern, combined with proper taping and mudding, creates a seamless appearance and strengthens the ceiling structure, minimizing the risk of cracks over time.

When doing a DIY paint job, it can be tricky to achieve the perfect, straight line between your wall and ceiling. There are several methods, including lining it with painter’s tape and using the “cut in” brush tactic. Some homeowners choose to apply a thin line of caulk to the wall-ceiling seam to create the appearance of a perfect line.

In most cases, no, you won’t need a permit to replace drywall. If you’re changing the floorplan of your home by adding or removing walls during the drywall project, then you might need a permit, but replacement or repairs usually doesn’t require a permit. Your drywall professional should be able to confirm whether or not a permit is required for your project. If it is, it’s likely to add between $50 and $150 to your total cost. Keep in mind that you will need permits if you plan to install new electrical wiring or plumbing lines behind your new drywall.

Costs range from $500 to $5,000, depending on damage size, labor, and finishing requirements.
