"Dan and his assistant Adam came out on very short notice and did the Ceiling texture repair and finish drywall work on my Master Bathroom in one evening. He fit me in, and worked very hard to complete the job for me. I can't say enough good things about Dan's effort and work. This really helped me out as I had a deadline to get the drywall completed so that my Tile Installer could start work on schedule. Thanks Dan! I'll call you again for all of my Drywall work."

"I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing drywall installation! They were fast and efficient, completing the work is less time than expected. I was highly pleased with the quality of their work and how clean they kept the job site. I would easily hire them again, but hopefully I won't need any drywall work done for a long time. :-)"

"My experience was great from the estimate. Estimator communicated effectively how my dry wall repair from a roof leak and plumbing pipe that burst should be handled. They were able to schedule me immediately for drywall and ceiling repair. They were in and out in 3 days. The whole job was handled professionally. I definitely recommend Patch King ."

"After the hard rains a few months back our basement flooded. It was a mess. All of the furniture, carpet, drywall everything wet. Insurance dealt directly with the company saved me a lot of headaches. I can say they exceeded my expectations. Very reliable, helpful. They came out the same day I called and finished the job in record time. I highly recommend."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

When you are learning how to tape and mud drywall, waiting for things to dry requires a lot of patience. So how long does drywall mud take to dry? On average, it takes about 24 hours. However, it depends on things like the thickness of the mud, as well as the room’s temperature, humidity, and ventilation. Using thin layers of mud in a warm, low-humidity room with good airflow reduces average drying time. You also could speed up drying time by making use of hot drywall mud, which consists of a powder that you mix with water, instead of using pre-mixed mud. 

Plaster provides a durable, soundproof, and moisture-resistant finish compared to drywall.

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.

If you’re looking for a reliable plaster repair company, you should start by researching local companies in your area and reviewing their status with the Better Business Bureau. Next, you can contact the potential companies to ask about experience levels, get a list of references, and ask for examples of past work. If you have a textured wall, consider asking if they have examples or references for that particular texture. This method should help you narrow your search even further. You may also want to ask each company if they provide a warranty for their work.

Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.
