"We had a simply amazing experience with PATCHWORX.PRO. They expertly closed up a doorway-sized opening between 2 rooms - you can't tell the opening was ever there. In addition, they fixed all the cracks in the drywall (walls and ceilings) and nail pops from the natural course of our house settling over 4 years. They painted all the areas and perfectly color-matched everything, and repaired or replaced and painted quarter round as needed. The owner, Scott, is responsive (he called within 5 minutes of me requesting a quote and was able to come out the same day for an estimate) and engaged before, during and at completion of the work. The crew (Carlos was our awesome foreman) were polite, communicative, careful and diligent (and cleaned everything up each day). Even better, the pricing is quite reasonable and they were able to complete the work quickly. I really canâ t say enough about our positive experience and the high quality of their work. We HIGHLY recommend PATCHWORX.PRO!"

"Had drywall installed and painted for a large family room. I received a few estimates and they had the lowest price. The owner was on site the entire time. The complete crew was very skilled, neat and professional. After fully making payment I noticed some minor touch up work that could only be seen later in the evening under dim lighting. I notified the owner and he and the crew came back the next two work days and resolved the touch ups. It was very professional in my opinion to make it a priority to return as soon as possible to complete the touch up work even after already being paid. I highly recommend their work."

"I hired Pete to install drywall after a bedroom renovation. I do my own home improvements but was in a hurry to get this project done. Pete and his crew completed the job quickly. He was punctual and courteous and he went out of his way to make sure the work area was clean and that I was happy with the end results before accepting final payment."

"GrayCo served as General Contractor and Drywall and Paint Contractors for our home that was flooded on 2 to 3 floors. They also obtained and coordinated with other skillful contractors to ensure that our home was made whole. The drywall, painting, carpet, recessed lights, and hardwood floors turned out magnificent. The GrayCo team and associates were professional, dedicated, and skillful. They were always on time and did a great job with clean up. They completed the project in a very timely matter and kept us up to date on all aspects of the project. The owners, Larry and Danielle, showed a deep commitment to completing our project and following up on every detail. They were excellent at coordinating with our insurance company. Highly Recommend Gray Co. Highly Recommend GrayCo!"

"10/10 for communication, cleanliness, and thoroughness!!! I'm already lining up more jobs for them to do! I hired them to insulate and drywall our garage. They communicated every step of the way, which was reassuring. Their drywall team are super hard workers; they even cleaned the garage floor after they were done each day! They are also very reasonably priced. Definitely give them a try!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Yes, wainscoting is installed directly over drywall. However, ensure the drywall is in good shape since it will support the wainscoting. If the drywall has issues, such as holes, mold, or mildew, repair them before installing the wainscoting. Alternatively, you can install a plywood substrate before attaching the trim.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Plaster ceilings can sag for several reasons. In some cases, the plaster and other building materials shift and come apart over time, which is why you’ll commonly find drooping plaster ceilings in older homes. Improper installation, foot traffic, and water damage—often from a leaky roof or a broken pipe—can also cause plaster ceilings to sag.

There are several things you should not do when installing drywall. Common mistakes include: adding too many screws, over-sanding, not adding backing support, and installing drywall unevenly. You also should avoid screwing into the same place twice, installing Sheetrock with tapered edges on the outside, and making too many joints.

You should stagger drywall sheets to help prevent cracking. The joints between drywall sheets are the weak spots, so if you install drywall with seams aligned, you’ll create weak lines that run across the length of the wall and extend from floor to ceiling. But when you stagger drywall, the solid sections of panels will support the joints. This can prevent seams from cracking or separating due to fluctuating temperature and humidity, vibrations from movement inside the home, and gravity.
