"My tired 1970’s ranch was transported into 2025 with drywall, Spanish Lace on the ceilings and new trim. Looks like a brand new house. Highly recommend Smooth Finish Drywall team!"

Small jobs welcome

"listened to questions and ideas that i had, offered info on colors and took into consideration what effect i was trying to achieve and gave advice that was very helpful (i found choosing paint colors overwhelming - they were significant in narrowing down colors to achieve what i wanted, not just what they thought). they didn't make me feel rushed or pressured for decisions needed. they accommodated me in last minute changes for paint color, even in the morning before they were coming over to paint. i especially appreciated having the cracks, nail pops and other minor holes plastered and sanded prior to painting. that was a plus (as opposed to just painting over those types of imperfections). willingness to move furniture before and afterwards was an important thing to me. personable and professional (almost rare to have with any businesses now a days). overall not only good workers who took their time, but also did beautiful job. want to mention that not only did they take care of painting (ceiling, walls, doors, crown molding) but they put up 2 ceiling medallions (they had to take down 1 ceiling chandelier for one of the medallions and put up a new light fixture/chandelier for the 2nd medallion). look forward to having them do more painting and other jobs in the near future. found them comfortable to work with"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

A 50-pound mirror can be hung on drywall, but only if it has the support of strong hardware. Ideally, you can find the studs behind the drywall and attach the mirror to them; this will give your mirror better stability. Otherwise, confirm that you are using anchors appropriate to the weight of the mirrors. Another technique is to use French cleats—two pieces of wood that fit together, with one piece attached to the wall and the other to the mirror. This allows the weight to be distributed over a wider area.

You should leave a gap between drywall sheets because they naturally expand and contract along with the building framing as temperature and humidity change. Most pro drywall installers leave a gap of about ⅛ inch between drywall sheets, allowing the sheets to expand, contract, and shift without cracking or becoming damaged. If you don’t leave enough gaps between slabs, the edges will press against each other when they expand, and the pressure can cause visible cracks.

Yes, as drywall mud is going to have some uneven spots and bumps after application. Such imperfections are going to be visible after everything dries and even after you paint the wall, so you want to remove them. Learning how to sand drywall, taking your time, and following drywall sanding tips can help you have the best results.

While a normal moisture level for drywall is between 5% and 12%, replacement is recommended if you get consistent readings above 17%. At this level, the drywall is likely too compromised by extensive moisture damage to be considered safe. You can replace either the entire sheet or just the affected section. If you are unsure after a visual inspection, it is best to have a contractor or water restoration provider use a professional moisture meter to get an accurate reading.
