"I recently hired Moyses from Nicolle Paint for some drywall patching and painting, and I couldn't be happier with the results! He responded to my request very quickly and provided a clear, reasonable quote for the work. Moyses was very considerate of my home. He took great care to protect all my belongings and flooring and did a fantastic job of cleaning up when the work was done. Not only did he complete the job on time, but the quality of both the drywall patching and the painting was excellent. For anyone needing drywall or painting services, I would highly recommend Moyses and Nicolle Paint."

"RCL did an excellent job replacing 2 feet of drywall around the basement and replacing the flooring with tile after a flood in the basement. The crew worked quickly and cleaned up well. The estimate we received was accurate."

"Our bathroom was remodeled down to the studs! The bathroom had new dry wall and the new paint tied everything together! (Used two different colors for the walls and ceiling for a custom touch). Our interior doors were also replaced with new door frames/molding. The painting for the new doors, trim, and surrounding drywall repair looked like a magazine when the work was completed. The team was a pleasure to work with, stayed on their timeline, and meticulously cleaned after their days work. We highly recommend Gibbs painting for all your home projects!"

"Edward and his team did a fantastic job staining our new hybrid deck and painting the front porch! They worked meticulously to tape around all the composite wood before staining the deck. It was a significant amount of work at a very reasonable price. Edward also returned to the house to touch up a few spots after the team was finished. Lastly, he was very flexible with the timing of the project, as we had to push the start date back a bit when something came up. Weâ d highly recommend D. Fuentes Painting for any painting or staining project!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Most drywall used for interior walls of homes is 1/2-inch thick. This size strikes a balance of being easy to handle and hang while being thick enough for the durability needed on interior wall applications.

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.

It’s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you’re referring to cracked, in which case that’s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it’s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage.

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.

Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.
