"I've been working on a home project and it was time to install blue board and plaster in two bedrooms. Derek came in and assessed the work and made sound recommendations for the best results. I have to give a special shout-out to his crew... they were friendly, knowledgeable, and very skilled workers. My wife and I are extremely pleased with the results. Derek will definitely be working with us on phase II of our home project."

"Do not pay in full, as it will leave a sour taste afterwards. I hired them to install some drywalls and plasters smooth the surface. During the process, everything seems to be okay. When they finished with the plastering, the wall looks decent when wet so we paid them in full thinking everything was good. However, after a few days the cracks and gap starts to appear after drying. Immediately, we contacted them to come back to fix the issue. The owner arranged to come by in the evening. He brought some compound and applied it over the surface. Yet, the marks are still visible and in some areas where the two sheet rocks meet up shows cracking. He blamed the heat was too high however that was not the case since the weather was quite nice for the past we allowed it to dry naturally. The painters said they can try to fix it but the cost will be extra. Whenever things go a bit sour in a job, I always tell myself, 'I should hold back on the last payment until everything checked out.'"

"Brian and his team were fantastic. They did high quality work. Brian’s attention to detail really made the final result amazing. We didn’t like the original layout of our primary bedroom: the closet was too small for two people and its location made the room layout awkward. Brian and his team removed the existing closet and built us a beautiful new closet on a different wall. The room looks incredible now, we love it so much. Thank you, Brian and team!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to cut holes in drywall for electrical boxes is to use a spiral saw with a drywall router bit. Hang the drywall without cutting out a hole for the box, but make sure you measure and mark where the box is located on the wall. Once you screw in the drywall sheet, drill a small hole into the box void, insert the spiral saw bit, and move it around the edge of the box using the inside wall as a guide. You can also use an oscillating multi-tool with an electrical box cutout for fast, professional results.

A common cause of separation between a wall and the ceiling is truss lift—this can happen to the ceiling of rooms directly under the attic when the seasons change and wood building materials dry out, shrink, and shift. Roof trusses often dry out at different speeds, and if the bottom pieces dry out faster than the top pieces, they can shrink and pull the attached drywall away from ceilings and walls, causing cracks. Fortunately, truss lift is only a cosmetic problem, not a structural problem, and you can fix it by separating the ceiling drywall from the roof trusses, and patching the cracks.

Yes, you can use drywall repair techniques for some types of plaster damage. Tiny holes and small cracks in plaster can be patched in similar ways to drywall. You apply the necessary compound to fill the hole, wait for it to dry, then sand it down. For larger damage, like water damage or mold, you need to use plaster-specific techniques and materials.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

Plaster can be a difficult DIY to master, especially if you plan to plaster an entire room, rather than patch a small area. Before you begin a plaster DIY project, you need to know which tools and type of plaster to use. It's also important to know how to prepare the surface and apply the plaster for a smooth finish. If that all sounds like a lot of work, you may prefer hiring a local plaster repair contractor to do the job.
