"Tom and his crew did a great job on updating our basement a couple of years ago during the pandemic and we would recommend them to anyone. They added drywall, baseboard, repainted the ceilings and epoxy the flooring."

"Thomas did an excellent job in restoring the interior of my garage. Taking down cabinets, retaping and repatching drywall that had been neglected for 20 plus years. Finished by applying two coats of paint. Price was very reasonable. Very professional."

"If you are in need of a handyman look no further than Jim Leonard! My husband and I hired him to help us with our new (old) home that was in need of serious repair and he has been absolutely incredible! He knows how to do everything and he does it the right way! Mold remediation, expert painting, tricky electrical installation, extensive drywall repair, artistically applied wood baseboard trim, you name it he does it! He is professional, polite and a pleasure to work with. He treats your home as if it were his own. He meticulously cleans up after a job, he works fast but is conscientious about each project so things are well thought out and done well. He even gives great advice if youâ re attempting to tackle a job on your own. He notices and sensitively points out things that arenâ t right. IE: when we first bought our home while here doing unrelated work, Jim noticed the garage ceiling drywall was in danger of falling. He immediately brought it to our attention and promptly fixed it saving us from certain disaster. This is the kind of person he is, he genuinely cares about his clients and he goes above and beyond what is expected. Hire Jim Leonard, you will be so so glad you did!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

In many cases, installing new drywall will boost your home value. Replacing old, damaged, cracked, or wavy drywall is a great way to improve the look and feel of your home, as new drywall installed by a professional shouldn’t have any imperfections. Additionally, removing old drywall means you’ll have open walls, so you can install new insulation and address exposed issues with plumbing and electrical systems running behind the walls. All of these fixes will also add to your home’s value.

You can technically just paint over hairline cracks in plaster since these cracks are often harmless, but this will mostly be a waste of paint. Paint will only hide the hairline crack for a few months before it shows up again. The best solution is to repair the crack with flexible filler or joint compound before repainting.

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.

You can take a few steps to save money on drywall installation, even when hiring a professional to do the bulk of the work for you. These ideas include the following:

  • Buy the drywall and other materials yourself to avoid product markup and delivery fees

  • Ask about discounts if you use the same company to tape, spackle, and paint

  • Hire drywall professionals in the winter when demand is the lowest

  • DIY as many parts of the project as possible, like replacing insulation and painting

Professionals mount TVs using specialized tools and knowledge of different wall materials, ensuring safe support.
