"Exceptional Service from Ray Gibbs Painting—Highly Recommended! We recently hired Ray Gibbs and his team to paint our entire house, top to bottom, and we couldn't be happier with the results. From the initial consultation to the final walk-through, every aspect of their service was professional and outstanding. First, the business side was seamless. Ray's pricing was fair and reasonable, offering excellent value for the extensive work performed. Ray was quick to respond via text and email, which made coordinating a large project stress-free. The crew demonstrated an incredible work ethic. They were extremely hard-working, showing up promptly at 8 am and working diligently the entire day until 5 pm. Due to a significant time crunch on our end, Ray and his team went above and beyond, working long hours, including weekends, to ensure we stayed on schedule. Ray was accurate with the estimated time of completion and kept the promised timeline, which was crucial for us. The quality of the painting was excellent, and they handled any requests for small touch-ups quickly and without hesitation. Furthermore, we made some last-minute changes and additions to the scope, and these were completed without any push back or grievance. Their flexibility and focus on client satisfaction were truly impressive. We will absolutely use them again for any future painting needs and highly recommend Ray Gibbs Painting to anyone looking for reliable, professional, and hard-working painters."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

Drywall installation is considerably faster and more affordable than plastering. Because plastering involves applying a wet material, it’s more time-consuming, takes longer to dry, and is more prone to cracking. It doesn’t tend to be as insulative either. If you need resurfacing work done on the walls, it's not unusual for the cost of plastering to hit $10 per square foot, which is much higher than the drywall installation costs of $1.50 to $3 per square foot.

If you’re looking for good soundproofing and want a high-end look in a historic home, though, plastering may be the better option.

If you're comfortable hanging drywall yourself, you may be comfortable finishing it. But it's worth noting that finishing drywall adds several steps to the process and a lot of waiting time. Hiring a drywall installer may be the way to go if you'd rather spend your time doing other things or are nervous about leaving a rough surface.

Generally, shower walls should not be installed over drywall because of the moisture issues this can cause. If you’re using a direct-to-stud shower kit, you need to remove the drywall before you can do the installation.

However, if you’re using a glue-up shower kit or stall, you can glue the shower walls directly to drywall. Be sure to install a moisture-resistant drywall or waterproof cement board.

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.
