"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!"

"After the new countertop and backsplash (quartz) was installed we decided to tile the wall. Rafael was quick to accommadate our availability and indecision. After tiling we decided to paint the kitchen. Again, Rafael was helpful with picking the colors and shades to match. He always returned our phone calls, texts and emails quickly. He was always courteous and understanding. He made knowledgable, correct suggestions in a friendly manner. He was always polite and never lost patience with us. It was almost a pleasure to hand him the final payment for work well done. We have already recommended Pontes Painting to a neighbor. Obviously we were delighted !"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Drywall can be installed directly on ceiling joists. In fact, this method is common in many construction projects. Drywall sheets are attached to the joists using screws, ensuring a secure and stable installation. Before attaching the drywall, it's important to mark the joist locations on the ceiling, allowing for accurate screw placement. Proper spacing between screws and careful taping and mudding of joints are crucial to creating a smooth and flawless ceiling surface. If the joists are in good condition and level, installing drywall directly on them is a practical and efficient approach.

Through expert matching of texture and paint for an invisible repair.

Drying alone can take 1 to 4 hours to dry to the touch per plaster layer, but some types of plaster take several hours longer to dry. However, this doesn’t mean the job is done because plaster doesn’t fully harden until it cures, which can take a few days to a couple of weeks. It may take even longer if you’re building a new, pretty thick plaster wall. Allow the plaster to cure before painting it.

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.

To hide drywall edges, you need to properly apply drywall tape and multiple layers of joint compound. These materials hide the seams between drywall sheets and fill the holes from drywall screws, leaving behind a smooth, flat finish to paint over. Apply joint compound smoothly, and finish the job by sanding the walls to make sure you fully hide drywall edges and other imperfections.
