"What I found outstanding was the excellent communication from Greg about my project at all stages, from the first meeting, through the repair process, to the completion. I always knew what to expect from the day-to-day work and I felt he and I were on the same page. My facia board, gable board, removal of moss on my roof and door replacement was accomplished safely and thoughtfully by his competent crew. I would recommend this company to anyone as I feel they are very trustworthy, and I hope to use them again for my next project"

"We contacted John Devoe to install drywall on a basement ceiling. He came over the same day to look at the job and provided a quote which was very reasonable so we hired him. I have been in the construction industry for 40 years (now retired) and can attest that it is extremely difficult to find an excellent drywall subcontractor. John exceeded my expectations his work was professional and exceptional. John has a young helper who is picking up the trade under the guidance of John as well, this is very important to bring in the younger generation into the trades for the future. I would use John again and would highly recommend him to anyone who needs drywall done."

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

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.

Costs depend on damage size, labor rates, and whether additional services like painting are required.

Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.

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.
