"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

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.

It's generally recommended to hang drywall on the ceiling first before moving on to the walls. This sequence allows the ceiling sheets to provide support for the vertical wall sheets. By attaching the ceiling drywall initially, you establish a solid framework to align and attach the wall panels accurately. This method ensures a seamless and sturdy connection between the ceiling and walls, resulting in a more professional finish.

While not always necessary, you can glue a drywall ceiling in addition to using screws or nails. Drywall is typically secured to ceiling joists with fasteners, which is often sufficient. However, adding construction adhesive can offer benefits like preventing sagging, bridging gaps, and reducing air leaks for better energy efficiency. It may also be used for specific acoustic or insulation needs. On the other hand, many professionals advise against it because properly placed screws make the drywall structural, glue doesn't add strength, and it makes future repairs or replacements significantly more difficult. Ultimately, it's best to follow local building codes and project-specific requirements to decide if adhesive is right for your ceiling.

Drywall insulation costs around $1,800, on average, but prices can range from $500 to $4,500, depending on a few different factors. The following things are important considerations to make when pricing out your insulation project:

  • Square footage of insulation

  • Type of insulation 

  • Climate in your area and the insulation R-value required

  • Whether or not your walls are already finished

  • Accessibility of the area 

  • Whether or not you need old insulation removed first
