"Was quick to quote and bid the job; Richard started right within our ideal time window and kept to the schedule. Our basement was ready to prime/paint in just over a weeks time. I would highly recommend looking into using Well Hung Drywall; I had a great experience and they would be my first call if I needed services in the future."

"Cash Contracting, LLC replaced our kitchen cabinets, sink, countertops, and woodwork and installed a beautiful tile backsplash. We are extremely satisfied with the results and their service. Mike, Tim, Parish, and Alan were professional, hardworking, courteous, and respectful of our home. They completed the project in just two weeks, including demolition in one day. They expertly handled cabinet installation, flooring changes, matching baseboards and door frames, a new door, and the backsplash. We especially appreciated their communication. They consulted us whenever there were options, explained adjustments needed due to our older home's uneven walls, and accommodated our last-minute request for a pullout trash can cabinet. They cleaned up every day, kept us informed about minor delivery delays, and even arranged for a thorough cleaning when the project was finished. We couldn't be happier with the quality of the work and overall experience. We highly recommend Cash Contracting, LLC"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

This depends on how much plaster is applied and in how many layers, but a decent estimate is around 150 square feet. If you are applying only two coats on a small wall, there is a chance you may only need one or two gallons for the entire project. If you are plastering a large living room wall with high ceilings, using one of the more involved techniques–like Scagliola–that requires several coats, expect the project materials costs to add up quickly. 

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.

Venetian plaster is a highly durable wall finish that becomes a rock-like substance once dried, making it last longer than most other wall finishes. Its lifespan can range from decades to centuries, potentially lasting a lifetime. Key factors influencing its longevity include the quality of the initial application, whether it's properly sealed against moisture, and how the wall is maintained and treated (e.g., how often it is touched or bumped). Due to its mineral content, it can also develop a patina over time.

When used correctly, drywall patch kits can work well. However, there are limitations. Specifically, these kits can only cover holes up to 5 inches in diameter. For anything larger than that, you’ll need to cut out the affected section of drywall and replace it with a new piece. That’s a far more complicated process that involves buying the right type of drywall, finding the wall studs, cutting into your wall, and screwing the replacement drywall in place.
