Q: Can you hang a 50-pound mirror on drywall?

• <div><p>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&mdash;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.</p></div>

Q: What is the pattern for ceiling drywall?

• <div><p>While every home has its own unique needs, ceiling drywall installation typically follows a staggered or stepped pattern to enhance structural integrity and reduce the visibility of seams. Starting from one corner, sheets are placed perpendicular to the ceiling joists, with the ends of adjacent sheets meeting along the center of the joist. The next row begins with a half sheet, ensuring joints don't align vertically. This alternating pattern, combined with proper taping and mudding, creates a seamless appearance and strengthens the ceiling structure, minimizing the risk of cracks over time.</p></div>

Q: What is the typical duration for completing an installation?

• <div><p>Most installations take 1-3 days, depending on customization and venting setup.</p></div>

Q: How long should I wait between coats of drywall mud?

• <div><p>You should wait at least 24 hours between each coat of drywall mud before sanding and adding another coat. This ensures the mud dries completely, although drying time depends on temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Lightweight muds dry faster, while heavier all-purpose compounds take longer. Always check for firmness and dryness before sanding or applying the next layer.</p></div>

Q: Is a drywall ceiling or drop ceiling more affordable?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-cost-install-drywall.htm">Installing drywall will cost</a> between <b>$1.50 and $3 per square foot</b> for materials, labor, and finishing, which is quite a bit lower than the average of <b>$9 to $13 per square foot</b> for a drop-tile ceiling. So, while drop ceilings allow more design flexibility, provide easy access to utility lines above them, and are often much easier and less expensive to repair, they do cost more upfront. You can minimize your drop ceiling cost by opting for more affordable fiberboard panels, although some homeowners don&rsquo;t like the look of this material.</p></div>

Michael repaired water damage to our living room ceiling. This included repairing drywall, mudding and texturing ceiling and repainting the ceiling in the living room and hallway. He was always polite, very responsive with all communications, was always on time, and helpful in all ways.
