"We had a large hole in our ceiling due to a water leak. I had previously seen great reviews on Tim's Drywall Repair and Painting, so I gave Tim a call. My wife and I were very impressed with Tim on his first visit. He obviously knew what he was talking about and gave us a good price on the job. Chris and Cody showed up on time and proceeded to impress us as they skillfully went about their work that left our ceiling looking better than when we first bought the house. My wife was always very comfortable with them...they were true gentlemen! I would give Tim and his crew my highest rating!"

"Phillip and his crew did a great job for me and I highly recommend them. I needed some drywall repair and interior painting done at my home. Phillip was very professional and communicative during the entire process. His crew cleaned up each evening and left the work areas neat and organized. In addition to the painting, he replaced an exterior door for me and built out 2 bathroom closets. I will definitely be hiring Phillip again in the future."

"I was affected by hurricane IDA, the tree and wind damage all over my land was outrageous. I had tried calling many contractors in the past months but they were all undependable or their skill at executing the labor was poor. I'm pleasantly surprised at the service provided by SRS Construction. Their prompt response, dependability as well as the execution of the work were very impressive. The labor of replacing my broken fences was all done the same day, and the work was done with a detail oriented approach. I highly recommend SRS Construction company to anyone who has been through a lot of contractors that let you down. The crew is very knowledgeable and courteous. Fred is eager to follow your design in a very professional matter."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Plaster that sags or bulges, shows extensive deep cracks, or is crumbling from water damage or simply time may need replacement. Plaster walls can look a little “worn” for a long time before they need replacing. The only real way to know if it needs a replacement is to hire a professional to assess the condition of the plaster.

If you’re installing new drywall, you may need to skim coat the drywall first for a smooth finish and to allow the primer to adhere to the wall. It’s only necessary if there are imperfections in your drywall due to issues with the studs or improper drywall installation. If you’re refreshing existing walls, you may want to skim coat if there are imperfections across the wall. As an alternative, you can repair your drywall and sand it for a smooth finish before painting.

The amount of drywall you need for a 1,000-square-foot basement depends on the ceiling height, angles, number of doors and windows, and more. To find the wall square footage, multiply the width and height of each wall, minus any gaps from windows or doors, and add the totals together. You’ll also need enough drywood nails or screws to install the drywall correctly.

In some minor cases, you can DIY drywall repair with minimal time and money spent. This method is best when you have a hole made by a singular problem, such as accidental furniture moving, and not a continuous problem, like a rodent infestation. 

Knowing what product to use is crucial. For example, small holes only need spackle, whereas large holes might need a new piece of drywall. You can flex your DIY abilities on this project, but if you’d like a second opinion or have a more significant problem, it’s best to call in a drywall repair pro.

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.
