"I put in a request for an estimate and friends drywall contacted me right away to schedule a time to come and check out the job. They were able to get to my house the next day. They showed up on time and give me an estimate. They were able to come over just a few days later to complete the job. They showed up on time, were professional, cleaned up after themselves, and I paid for the work after it was completed. They did an amazing job on my drywall. It looks perfect! I will definitely use them again and would recommend this company to anyone."

"The Perfect Edge Painting crew was punctual. C.W, Donna and Dana were polite but professional. They explained they would cover furniture with light plastic sheeting and move it out of the immediate work area. Heavy drop cloths were taped down on the floor. Cracks and drywall imperfections were filled, smoothed and sanded. Once the trio started painting , they stopped to ask if my wife and I were happy with the color and look of the new paint. They painted our entry hall, dining room, family room and kitchen. When they were done they cleaned and swept up. Apparently this crew has worked together for many years . They have high standards, their attention to details is impressive and their finished product is first rate. I was impressed. I would use them again and recommend them without hesitation."

"Big shout out to Jose Segovia for the wonderful job done for renovations of all 3 bathrooms. From first appointment till finished, Jose and his team listened to what we needed done and came through with the end result that was beyond our expectations. We also added the tile work for another room that they agreed on. We ran across some termite problems in that room, but Jose and his team found the solutions and replaced the stud and drywall that was needed to take care of the problem before installing the tiles. We're very pleased with the work ethic of Jose and his team and we highly recommend him for any and all types of renovations around the house. We will definitely be using his services and experience for our future needs. Jose Segovia and his team are wonderful to work with and you will not be disappointed with the end result. We give him 5 Stars and heartily recommend him and his company Lex Investment Group, DBA. Thank you"

"Needed my basement Drywalled. Their price was very good. Better than Iâ d been quoted from a friend whoâ s a contractor. So with the great pricing I was quoted I decieded to hire them. Was told job would take a week. It took a week. Price was the same as what they quoted me. They also wanted to start like the next day, which was great. All in all I would hire Jesus again no questions asked. This company is a legit hard working honest group of dudes. Thatâ s what I got from them. Honesty and a good job done."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The two most common drywall thicknesses for ceilings are 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch. For most standard residential applications, 1/2-inch drywall is sufficient and widely used. It provides adequate support and is lighter and easier to handle during installation compared to thicker sheets. However, 5/8-inch drywall is often used for specific cases where additional benefits are needed. It is heavier but provides superior sound dampening and fire resistance. You should consider using 5/8-inch drywall for ceilings in commercial buildings, between a garage and a living space, or above a finished basement to meet building codes or for enhanced soundproofing.

Applying plaster to a wall will usually cost between $2 and $10 per square foot for both the material and labor. The cost will vary based on the quality of the plaster you’re using and whether or not prep work is required before the work begins. Wall prep can add up to about 10% to your total costs. Plastering exterior walls can be more expensive in many cases because they are taller and require scaffolding and safety equipment.

The cost to skim coat drywall is $1.15 to $1.35 per square foot. Most of the cost is labor, for the necessary skills to apply the skim coat with precision using high-quality tools. This is a job better left to the professionals for the best outcomes.

Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.
