"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!"

Small jobs welcome

"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.'"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.

Deciding whether to repair or replace drywall can be tricky, but your top considerations should be the extent of the damage and what caused the damage. For instance, if you need to repair a small hole caused by a doorknob that hit the wall, you can safely patch it without a second thought. However, if you have significant drywall damage caused by water damage, it’s best to thoroughly remove the drywall to inspect and repair the pipes behind it before replacing it.

There are six levels of drywall finish, from 0 to 5, that refer to the amount of work performed during the finishing process.

Level 0: Drywall is hung with no finishing work.

Level 1: Tape is placed over the seams between drywall sheets.

Level 2: A thin layer of mud is applied over the tape and screw holes. This level is common for utility rooms or walls that will be covered.

Level 3: A full coat of mud covers the screw holes and tape, but the surface is not sanded. This is often used in garages.

Level 4: This is the most common finish for visible interior walls. It involves applying two coats of mud over seams and screw holes, with sanding between each coat, creating a smooth surface ready for flat paint.

Level 5: This is a high-end finish for luxury homes. It includes full taping, mudding, and sanding, plus a final skim coat over the entire surface before painting.

Yes, any parts of drywall that are wet or overly moist will need to be replaced. Drywall is intended to be dry (it’s in the name, after all.), as excess moisture can lead to mold and mildew and eventually corrode your home’s foundational building pieces. Do regular inspections in your home to make sure all your plumbing is intact and in good condition—this will go a long way toward preventing leaks.
