"John Crichton and a partner arrived promptly on a Monday and installed the drywall.  On Tuesday they skim-coated the drywall, cleaned the area and left.  They were prompt, professional, and neat.

"John came out to my house the day after I requested an estimate. He gave me a reasonable quote and and the timeframe in which he would be able to start the work. His advise and communication allowed me to finish the required demolition right before he started the job. He showed up right on time with his co-worker and did an excellent job. When he ran into an unexpected issue he called me immediately and went above and beyond to solve the problem that could not have been foreseen. I was so happy with the work that I asked him to come back and drywall and plaster the stairway leading up to the bedrooms so that everything looked like new. We had already scheduled new carpet to be installed before he could start the second job. He was true to his word and showed up a couple weeks later and did another excellent job and we couldn't find one speck of dust on the new carpet when they were done. I would recommend to get an estimate from J&M before making a final decision on who you decide to hire."

"Excellent, no problems, very professional and neat. Did a fine job, and was very careful about keeping area clean. He cleaned up after he was done and I was pleasantly surprised how little dust and dirt there was. My wife is a very clean person and she had no complaints. I would recommend him to a friend or relative."

Small jobs welcome

"After posting the query on HomeAdvisor Gary was the first to call us and called very soon after I submitted the project. Leading up to this we had the unfortunate experience with the previous person who had assured us the drywall would be installed and paint-ready in June, and that four-plus months later hanging the drywall was still not complete, much less mudding and sanding. Gary came in and pulled everything together, repairing the drywall that was not hung correctly, putting up the remaining new drywall, and finishing the surfaces throughout the house to provide us with truly paint-ready surfaces. My wife and I are extremely pleased with the results and recommend Gary to anyone who wants to have their drywall walls and ceilings be the talk of the town -- and also the county."

"Lindo and team are excellent, professional, prompt, and flexible to work with on projects. They do high quality work and guarantee their workmanship for five years. I have hired them for two different projects. The first was to prepare and paint the exterior of a two floor home and do some interior painting and replacement of some drywall. The second project was interior painting of several rooms, installation of a garage fire door, and painting a built in entertainment center. It was valuable that they had on staff carpenters to do repairs of broken fascia and cedar shingles, door installation and drywall work. This allowed all projects to flow seamlessly and be done in coordination with other service providers. Lindo is personally very responsive and proactively checks to see your satisfaction with their work as well as point out things he believes should be considered in planning the work. The crew arrives on time and always leaves the site orderly and clean. I highly recommend Supreme Painters and will use them on my next projects."

"I had a fantastic experience with Tellez Plastering as my drywall contractor! Pedro was incredibly communicative, keeping me updated throughout the entire project. He was organized and made the process easy and stress-free. He even provided progress photos, which I really appreciated. Not only was he skilled and professional, but he was also very pleasant to work with. Highly recommend for any drywall needs!"

"Hiring AA Ceiling was one of the best decisions I have made when it comes to home improvements. Having worked in the construction industry, I was prepared for certain setbacks, however, Mike and his staff at AA ceiling were far from the negative stereotypes of contractors. They were very professional, timely, fair, and most importantly, the product was fantastic! I would recommend them to friends and family alike!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can apply new plaster over an existing plaster surface, such as a wall or ceiling, provided the old plaster is in good condition. Before you begin, check the stability of the existing plaster. The surface must be clean, free of loose material, and have no peeling paint. It is also recommended to roughen the surface slightly to promote adhesion. For older plaster, applying a base coat like a PVA emulsion or a specific bonding agent or primer is crucial. This step makes the existing plaster less porous and ensures the new and old layers adhere properly for a smooth, long-lasting finish.

You may need to replace drywall because of smoke damage. If the drywall is covered in soot, you may be able to clean it, but it will require a lot of time and effort. You could spend hours cleaning the drywall only to find there is more damage and it needs to be replaced anyway. It’s usually easier and safer to remove the smoke-damaged drywall and replace it.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.

The cost to skim coat drywall is $1.15 to $1.35 per square foot. Most of the cost is labor, for the necessary skills to apply the skim coat with precision using high-quality tools. This is a job better left to the professionals for the best outcomes.
