"I used D & D construction for a concrete slab driveway. We never had one in our home and really wanted to get rid of the gravel. He contacted me extremely fast and came out the next day to evaluate the job. Once measuring was done & he quoted us an amazing price they were back the next day to start the job. The crew is friendly and very professional. Job was done in less than 2 days. We love our new drive way and would def recommend them. Fast, quick, and professional"

"Great painting job. Even returned when the ceiling paint did not match. Mr. Joseph come back and repainted the ceiling in 2 rooms. Only complaint was they were a little messy and left paint on some of the floors."

"We had a ton of issues with white wood rotting of wood baseboards, and water bubbles in wall panels. The A&H Team came in and didnt just treat the symptoms by patching it up and leaving. They did a comprehensive assessment of my Home, and while the job became much larger than cosmetic fixes, I feel secure now that my house is in much better shape. The team worked fast and identified the source in my attic from nearly fully busted Air ducts, so replacing that, removing molded Insulation, and replacing all our insulation. They also removed spray foam holding moisture under my pier & beam house and replaced with Foam Boards and Crawl Space plastic to prevent rot from the bottom up . The professionalism, courtesy, and communication were top notch. And lastly everything looks amazing afterward. I'm glad I had service that wasnt just surface level and made sure we don't have bigger problems down the line. 100% would recommend"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

Drywall can be installed directly on ceiling joists. In fact, this method is common in many construction projects. Drywall sheets are attached to the joists using screws, ensuring a secure and stable installation. Before attaching the drywall, it's important to mark the joist locations on the ceiling, allowing for accurate screw placement. Proper spacing between screws and careful taping and mudding of joints are crucial to creating a smooth and flawless ceiling surface. If the joists are in good condition and level, installing drywall directly on them is a practical and efficient approach.

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.

While a normal moisture level for drywall is between 5% and 12%, replacement is recommended if you get consistent readings above 17%. At this level, the drywall is likely too compromised by extensive moisture damage to be considered safe. You can replace either the entire sheet or just the affected section. If you are unsure after a visual inspection, it is best to have a contractor or water restoration provider use a professional moisture meter to get an accurate reading.

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.
