Customers say: Terrific value

"I recently hired them for painting the walls in 3 rooms in my new home, and I am very satisfied with the exceptional service they provided. Not only were they affordably priced and adhered to their initial estimate, but they also accommodated my tight schedule, completing the project on the only day I could spare. The quality of their work exceeded my expectations, showcasing their expertise and attention to detail. Communication was seamless, with prompt and responsive interactions whenever I reached out. Additionally, they left my home perfectly clean, reflecting their commitment to professionalism. I highly recommend this painter for anyone seeking top-notch service and outstanding results, and may hire them again for other rooms in my home!"

"Extremely professional and helpful. We had a small project, and were treated as if it were just as important as a large remodel. Very respectful and accommodating of our family's busy schedule. The project was completed on time (3 days), right before the holidays. We love the work that was done, and would recommend DL Palmer to our friends and neighbors. Thank you for helping to make our home beautiful!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

There is no way to cut drywall without making dust, but you can reduce the amount of dust and especially the dangerous airborne particles by using manual cutting tools. Using a utility knife to score and snap your drywall will minimize dust production, and a jab saw for cutting cutouts for boxes and fixtures will generate almost no airborne dust. Even if you use these methods, you should still wear a respirator and safety goggles to avoid damage to your lungs and eyes.

Yes, it matters which side of drywall you use. One side is smooth, and the other is rough. The smooth side should be facing outward, toward the room, while the rough side should be hidden and facing the studs and framing of the house. The smooth side will be easier to apply tape, joint compound, and, later, paint to.

While not always necessary, you can glue a drywall ceiling in addition to using screws or nails. Drywall is typically secured to ceiling joists with fasteners, which is often sufficient. However, adding construction adhesive can offer benefits like preventing sagging, bridging gaps, and reducing air leaks for better energy efficiency. It may also be used for specific acoustic or insulation needs. On the other hand, many professionals advise against it because properly placed screws make the drywall structural, glue doesn't add strength, and it makes future repairs or replacements significantly more difficult. Ultimately, it's best to follow local building codes and project-specific requirements to decide if adhesive is right for your ceiling.
