"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

The cost to texture drywall depends on whether you want to do the work yourself or hire a professional. The cost of the drywall mud is far lower than labor costs for applying it. The labor cost to spray drywall compound onto a wall is between $0.80 and $1.50 per square foot, while you’ll pay between $1.50 and $2 per square foot for the labor to apply the texture by hand.

The best way to make long, straight cuts is to use a utility knife and a T-square to score the sheet, snap along the score, and then finish the cut by cutting through the paper on the opposite side with the utility knife. If you’re making small cuts, curved cuts, or cutouts for electrical boxes or light fixtures, you can use a manual jab saw to keep costs down, but an electric spiral saw or oscillating multi-tool will get the cleanest, fastest cuts possible.

How you hang the drywall can affect the finishing process. It's often easier to finish horizontal drywall panels, as the seams run across the wall rather than up and down. Standard drywall panels are 48 inches wide, so the seam is easy to reach without bending down or stretching your arms.

Knowing what causes drywall damage can help stop it before it starts. Here are some of the most common causes of drywall damage: 

  • Water damage from roof leaks or leaky pipes. 

  • Small holes caused by doorknobs, minor accidents, and rodent infestations. 

  • Wall dents stemming from moving furniture and minor accidents. 

  • Wall cracks that form from a settling foundation or seismic activity. 

  • Nail pops from nails and screws in the walls. 

  • Large holes that are caused by accidents with heavy objects, children and pets, or sporting equipment.

Damp plaster does dry out, although the drying time depends on several factors, including the type of plaster, the surrounding temperature, moisture content, and the extent of the dampness. Sometimes, it can take weeks or months for wall plaster to dry naturally.
