"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."

"Mr. Hammond and his employee were very professional. We had them install siding and windows and then had them do some drywall and trim work. We were on vacation, Mr. Hammond’s work exceeded our expectations, work and cleanup were done when we got home. Would definitely hire him again!"

"After getting some repairs done in our basement, we needed the area to be drywalled. This included removing some old paneling. Rafael and his assistant did an excellent job . We were so pleased that we hired him to lay new flooring and paint the entire area. His charges were very reasonable given the scope of the work. Rafael communicated regularly with us regarding his progress. We would definitely recommend him and would hire him again for future projects."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Yes, it matters which side of drywall you use. One side is smooth, and the other is rough. The smooth side should be facing outward, toward the room, while the rough side should be hidden and facing the studs and framing of the house. The smooth side will be easier to apply tape, joint compound, and, later, paint to.

Installing or repairing plaster on ceilings differs slightly from performing the same motions on a wall. You’ll apply slightly less plaster to lower the overall weight of the ceiling. Wall texturing is common, whereas most ceilings are smooth plaster. Tough coat plaster is strong, meaning you can use less while retaining a solid surface.

It’s highly recommended to use studs for a TV mount. The last thing you want is to be watching your favorite show when the TV falls off the wall. Studs are much stronger than drywall and quite a bit stronger than drywall anchors but, if you can’t find the studs or there simply aren’t any where you need them, you can use drywall anchors. It’s extremely important to make sure the anchors are rated for the load of the TV. We recommend using anchors that are rated far beyond the weight of whatever you’re hanging. Our suggestion is metal drywall toggle anchors. 

The cost to install drywall is between $1.50 and $3 per square foot, while shiplap installation costs between $2 and $7 on average. In most applications, shiplap installations cost more than that of putting in drywall. However, several ways exist to reduce shiplap prices, especially for small locations or accent walls, which can keep the total cost of shiplap competitive with that of drywall.

Whether you can reuse a drywall anchor depends on its type, material, and how it is removed. Plastic anchors, such as expansion or self-drilling types, are generally considered single-use because they are designed to expand and are likely to break or become deformed upon removal. Metal anchors, like toggle bolts, are more durable and can often be reused if they are not damaged during extraction. However, with toggle bolts, the toggle mechanism can fall inside the wall when the bolt is removed, making it difficult to retrieve. If an anchor is damaged or must be cut for removal, it cannot be reused regardless of its material.
