"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."

"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

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

Plaster that sags or bulges, shows extensive deep cracks, or is crumbling from water damage or simply time may need replacement. Plaster walls can look a little “worn” for a long time before they need replacing. The only real way to know if it needs a replacement is to hire a professional to assess the condition of the plaster.

If your premixed drywall mud is dried out or has begun to set in the bucket, you may be able to revive it by adding warm water and stirring. However, the first and most important step is to scrape off any hard, dried bits of drywall that may have accumulated toward the top of the container and throw them away because they will not easily reconstitute back into the drywall mud mix.

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.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.
