"Roberto and his crew did a fantastic job finishing drywall I had hung. Very fast and professional. They got all the mudding and finishing done in one day and a few days later came back and sanded it down so that it was ready for painting. If you're looking for great drywall work hire Roberto! Nicest guy ever and will get the job done right the first time!"

"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."

"Excellent! Bill was super detail oriented and communicated with us on every decision about the project, even down to the color of the screws to use so they’d blend in with the step boards. It was extremely hot and Bill worked tirelessly to get our project finished and didn’t complain once. We highly recommend Bill for any handyman project you have and we’ll definitely use him again when we have the need!"

"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

When you are learning how to tape and mud drywall, waiting for things to dry requires a lot of patience. So how long does drywall mud take to dry? On average, it takes about 24 hours. However, it depends on things like the thickness of the mud, as well as the room’s temperature, humidity, and ventilation. Using thin layers of mud in a warm, low-humidity room with good airflow reduces average drying time. You also could speed up drying time by making use of hot drywall mud, which consists of a powder that you mix with water, instead of using pre-mixed mud. 

Whether you apply the drywall mesh before or after drywall mud depends on the type of patch it is. For self-adhesive patches, you’ll put the patch down first and then coat it with mud. Mesh patches that are not self-adhesive will require you to put mud down first and then press the mesh into it, followed by additional coats of mud.

Drywall mudding can be done in one day if the project is small and the desired effect isn’t too complex. If you need multiple layers of mud, one day may not be realistic. But a single room that requires little more than joint compound on the seams and screws can be done in a day or two.

The best tool for skim coating drywall is a skim coating blade, which can smooth out joint compound in wide stretches. While you could use a smaller drywall knife for skim coating, the smaller size means it’ll take longer to smooth out each section. Instead, consider investing in a skim coating blade for the quickest application.

Popular wall textures include orange peel, knockdown, spray sand, and smooth finishes. Orange peel and knockdown are particularly common choices for drywall as they are simple and cost-effective. Orange peel texture has a lightly bumpy surface resembling the skin of an orange, while knockdown (sometimes called knockout) looks like a stucco finish with flattened high spots. In contrast, popcorn texture has fallen out of fashion, partly due to its past association with asbestos and a shift toward more restrained interior design styles.
