They can rest assured when I am looking for help in the future, they will be the first to get the call from me."

"We have had W&J do smaller jobs for us in the past but last week we had them paint the entire exterior of our house and that is when they really won us over. Winston and Josh came out a few days before they were scheduled to paint for a walk-through. We got many of the details discussed before they started painting. They arrived with a very good plan of how to accomplish the painting in three or four days given that the weather forecast continually changed all that. They were very careful and very thorough in their pay process. We were sent pictures during the day of the progress. The communication was very good. Text messages and phone calls were answered promptly and we were told what time each day to expect them they are at our house. Their work quality was outstanding! They left no stone unturned. They used three different colors on our house. I was concerned that the trim lines might be tricky to manage but they did an awesome job! It looked absolutely beautiful when they were done. We ve gotten compliments from the neighbors as well. W&J were very easy to work with have a good attitude and adding lots of humor during the process. Many thanks to those two guys."

Drywall Insulation questions, answered by experts

Textured walls are a great way to hide imperfections left over by drywall installation, but many homeowners feel like it’s an outdated look, despite there being so many types of drywall texture. And while the textured walls of today are a far cry from the popcorn ceilings and faux stucco of our grandmother’s homes, if you want a more modern look or you want to install wallpaper, it’s time to smooth out your walls.

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.

Beadboard is a decorative element and lacks the structural integrity of drywall. It cannot hold much weight and is not meant to be used as an insulator or moisture barrier, like drywall is. In almost all cases, beadboard is placed over an existing wall surface which, in modern days, is usually drywall, but decades ago could have been wood paneling.

Drywall can be installed directly on ceiling joists. In fact, this method is common in many construction projects. Drywall sheets are attached to the joists using screws, ensuring a secure and stable installation. Before attaching the drywall, it's important to mark the joist locations on the ceiling, allowing for accurate screw placement. Proper spacing between screws and careful taping and mudding of joints are crucial to creating a smooth and flawless ceiling surface. If the joists are in good condition and level, installing drywall directly on them is a practical and efficient approach.

Costs depend on labor, material quality, wall preparation, and finishing requirements.
