"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."

"Chuck is prompt, polite and tidy. He asked questions to make sure he understood the project. He did a great job painting and reglazing old french doors. He also framed, sheetrocked, and painted an old room. Including boxing wires and creating a ceiling. Looks amazing."

"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 age of your home can clue you in to whether you have plaster or drywall ceilings. Homes built after the ‘70s are more likely to have drywall ceilings and walls, while older homes have plaster. You can also do the pushpin test: A pushpin will go into drywall, whereas it’s much harder to push one into a plaster wall. If you’re still unsure, ask a drywall professional to let you know which type of ceilings and walls you have.

While every home has its own unique needs, ceiling drywall installation typically follows a staggered or stepped pattern to enhance structural integrity and reduce the visibility of seams. Starting from one corner, sheets are placed perpendicular to the ceiling joists, with the ends of adjacent sheets meeting along the center of the joist. The next row begins with a half sheet, ensuring joints don't align vertically. This alternating pattern, combined with proper taping and mudding, creates a seamless appearance and strengthens the ceiling structure, minimizing the risk of cracks over time.

Costs depend on damage extent of damage, labor, finishing, and whether mold remediation is needed.

While a normal moisture level for drywall is between 5% and 12%, replacement is recommended if you get consistent readings above 17%. At this level, the drywall is likely too compromised by extensive moisture damage to be considered safe. You can replace either the entire sheet or just the affected section. If you are unsure after a visual inspection, it is best to have a contractor or water restoration provider use a professional moisture meter to get an accurate reading.

Yes, walls on the top floor can be load-bearing if stacked on the floor’s foundation.
