"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!"

"Drywall was installed over the damaged and aging lathe and plaster. The crew arrived on time and worked diligently each day over several days. The crew assisted in clearing the rooms of heavy furniture and dissembling where needed. The Process was smooth from quote to finish . The rooms and furniture were put back in order and there is minimal residual dust. The ceilings are now pristine."

"We hired Luis to repair damaged drywall and plaster walls. Luis was timely in his responses to questions and made us feel comfortable with his suggestions. He showed up on time and finished our project quickly. With drywall repair there can be a lot of dust, but Luis left his work area clean. Will hire him again for future projects."

"We have two kitchen outlets, a light, and dishwasher along one wall that doesn't work. Rick tried to fix it, but the problem is difficult to determine. He spent two hours here and tried to fix the problem and wasn't able to determine the cause. He didn't charge us anything. He was very professional and knowledgeable. I would recommend him."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can paint over plaster, but repair any damage to the plaster first, or the paint will crack and bubble. You should also prepare the surface of the plaster to accept paint, which gives your paint job the best chance of looking good and lasting a long time. Before applying the color you want, apply a coat or two of primer. Additionally, use latex paint, and choose a latex paint with a satin finish for areas with dampness, like bathrooms.

With its breathability and flexibility, lime plaster is among the most durable of all plaster types. It's also fire-resistant and has a proven track record, as people have been using it for thousands of years.

However, all plaster types will last for many years with the right care and treatment. Proper preparation and installation will also help ensure your plaster walls look great for as long as possible.

Yes, you can use drywall repair techniques for some types of plaster damage. Tiny holes and small cracks in plaster can be patched in similar ways to drywall. You apply the necessary compound to fill the hole, wait for it to dry, then sand it down. For larger damage, like water damage or mold, you need to use plaster-specific techniques and materials.

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.

The easiest way to cut holes in drywall for electrical boxes is to use a spiral saw with a drywall router bit. Hang the drywall without cutting out a hole for the box, but make sure you measure and mark where the box is located on the wall. Once you screw in the drywall sheet, drill a small hole into the box void, insert the spiral saw bit, and move it around the edge of the box using the inside wall as a guide. You can also use an oscillating multi-tool with an electrical box cutout for fast, professional results.
