"

My husband was also the one that dealt with them. Their service was fast and it looked really great. It was just that the glazing they put on didn't exactly stick, but their work did not really promise the protection that they were advertising. Some places chipped a little easily and we were pretty careful with it. It was kind of intricate work.

"After a kitchen and family room renovation, the crew did an excellent job painting the rooms. We also needed a precise color match with our cabinets for trim work and it was spot on. The color consultation provided by Matt was so worth it. Everyone loves the color he advised is to choose.

They were professional, clean, and meticulous with their painting. Highly recommend."

"Bill did an outstanding job with the paint as well as the drywall. He has great attention to detail. He spent the time and did not rush through. I had to pay him more than quoted because I felt that he deserved more for his time."

"Roberto was very responsive. After an initial call and estimate via text/email, he showed up within 24 hours to fix a jagged, 4 foot wide hole in our drywall. When he arrived, we pointed out even more work that needed to be done (nearby door trim and frame repair). Surprise! Roberto worked all day and exceeded our expectations. I was truly amazed when I saw the completed job. It was so perfect, it was impossible to tell the wall/trim had ever been damaged. In fact, Roberto had not only repaired the damaged area, he primed and painted the entire wall. The care and attention Roberto took with our home reflects the ethic of a true craftsman. VERY highly recommend."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You should start looking for a drywall installer by choosing a local company with positive online reviews and ratings with the Better Business Bureau (BBB). Next, confirm that the professional is properly licensed using Angi’s contractor licensing tool, and ask the installer if they are fully insured. It’s a good idea to ask for recent customer references and call them to get their honest opinion about the contractor and their work. You can also ask the installer if they guarantee their work or provide a workmanship warranty.

It's generally recommended to hang drywall on the ceiling first before moving on to the walls. This sequence allows the ceiling sheets to provide support for the vertical wall sheets. By attaching the ceiling drywall initially, you establish a solid framework to align and attach the wall panels accurately. This method ensures a seamless and sturdy connection between the ceiling and walls, resulting in a more professional finish.

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.

You can repair plaster ceilings yourself after the cause of the ceiling damage has been addressed. However, the repair can easily take 5 hours and can be slightly challenging for those without previous experience. If you do decide to flex your DIY muscle, have a helper to help hold the ladder and pass you the tools for safety purposes.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.
