"Larry's team was meticulous and focused on restoring the walls in my 100+ year old duplex. Larry came in with great ideas and options and made the place look like new. All the cracks vanished! He even put up a new ceiling in one the bedrooms. I plan to use Preferred Drywall again very soon. Thanks Larry!"

"The 13 foot cathedral ceiling in our 22x22 foot playroom was in terrible shape from age - cracks, dingy popcorn texture. Then a skylight leaked damaging some of the drywall ceiling. I was worried about the significant cracks. Steve explained how he uses screws to reinforce each side of the crack, then applies a fiberglass type of tape that resists cracking before mudding and sanding. I hired him for his knowledge, pictures he supplied of his work, especially concerning cracks, and his thorough explanation of what he planned to attack my ceiling problems. This was a HUGE job. Steve protected the tongue and groove wood walls, fixtures, and cabinets with plastic and the floor with heavy duty paper. The finished work was just beautiful. Every once in a while you discover a professional that you keep in your records for any future work you may need. Steve is my drywall and ceiling pro that I will be recommending to friends and family if they need this kind of work! The result is just stunning!"

"Johnny Carenzo tiled 2 showers and a floor in our bathrooms, and painted the walls to match. One bathroom required removing old tiles that surrounded the entire room, reducing the length of a baseboard heater, and carefully working around an existing vanity with a custom Ashfield Stone top. It all looks fantastic, and it was done on time and on budget! His intelligent suggestions and comments were of great help, and he was a pleasure to work with."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

While certain types of textured walls can seem dated (looking at you, popcorn), textured walls are a common sight in both older and more modern homes. The main reason textured walls may be here to stay is that they are an excellent way to hide minor imperfections on a wall and give it a finished appearance. Some homeowners think a coat of paint on drywall is a bit industrial-looking. However, that look works perfectly in modern home design. 

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.

If you’re looking for a reliable plaster repair company, you should start by researching local companies in your area and reviewing their status with the Better Business Bureau. Next, you can contact the potential companies to ask about experience levels, get a list of references, and ask for examples of past work. If you have a textured wall, consider asking if they have examples or references for that particular texture. This method should help you narrow your search even further. You may also want to ask each company if they provide a warranty for their work.

Yes, a one-story house can have a load-bearing wall. The load-bearing walls in a single-story home are usually the exterior walls. If the house has a basement with exposed walls, the arrangement of the beams can help indicate what walls are load-bearing.

You’ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish.
