"Greg was very accommodating with my schedule, which kept changing due to work.  He arrived on time and started working right away.  He ran into some trouble with our 150 year old construction and worked until 7:00 PM that day.  Unfortunately for him, he didn't finish, but he came back right away the next morning.  I wasn't able to be there, but we felt comfortable leaving him a key.  He let himself in, finished the job, and cleaned up.  The room was in almost perfect condition.  Greg was very creative in wiring the lights so that he didn't' have to create holes in the walls or ceiling.  There are a couple of patches that we will have to spackle and repaint, but that's to be expected given the type of work done and that the deal said that it didn't include drywall repair. I was worried that that meant he would haphazardly put holes in the walls and leave them gaping open, but he certainly didn't do that and he repaired what he did do to my expectations.  
The lights look absolutely amazing - the room is so much more comfortable with the dimmer option and the recessed lights look so good we are considering them for other rooms in the house.  
Another plus - Greg was really good with the dog and friendly to me.  Sometimes it can be uncomfortable to have another person in your home, but Greg was very pleasant.

"The installers of the wallboard were quick and efficient. Did a great job hanging in our new 16 x 32 family room. Even with some of the patch work in other areas of the house they ensured the surrounding wallboard had screws to adequately cover the area before the taper came in. The man that taped and mudded was a true professional. His corners and seams are clean and overall the expertise of the entire crew was exceptional. I would certainly hire this company again."

"Well, the first time the replacement was ordered it was the wrong one, which of course, delayed the installation a week. When it was finally installed I had to pay an additional $850 for code upgrades. This I was not informed of by Home Shield. Then we noticed that there was water on the garage floor and found that the pipe coming in from the wall was leaking at the wall so had to call the plumbing company back out to fix it. They first tried to say it was not their fault but since there wasn't a leak before they installed they did fix it. I have used Home Shield a few times before and never had a problem. Some of the companies they use are not the best so you have to research them before you commit. I have found HS service to be good if you do your homework. At the end of the day I was without hot water for almost 3 weeks but it was do to the plumbing company they sent out."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

While certain types of textured walls can seem dated (looking at you, popcorn), textured walls are a common sight in both older and more modern homes. The main reason textured walls may be here to stay is that they are an excellent way to hide minor imperfections on a wall and give it a finished appearance. Some homeowners think a coat of paint on drywall is a bit industrial-looking. However, that look works perfectly in modern home design

If your premixed drywall mud is dried out or has begun to set in the bucket, you may be able to revive it by adding warm water and stirring. However, the first and most important step is to scrape off any hard, dried bits of drywall that may have accumulated toward the top of the container and throw them away because they will not easily reconstitute back into the drywall mud mix.

When sanding drywall mud, you’re going to create a very fine dust that may contain silica. Silica dust contains crystalline silica, which can cause long-term illnesses for people who inhale it in significant quantities. Wear a mask while sanding drywall. Then dampen a drywall sponge to wipe the dust off the drywall, helping to reduce the amount of dust that may become airborne.

Both plaster and drywall are durable wall finishes, but they differ significantly in installation, cost, performance, and aesthetics.

Installation & Cost: Drywall installation is faster and more affordable, typically costing $1.50 to $3 per square foot. It uses premade sheets, making it a more accessible DIY project. Plastering is a labor-intensive craft that requires specialized skills, pushing costs to $2 to $10 per square foot. It involves applying a wet paste over a lath framework.

Durability & Performance: Plaster is generally more durable, longer-lasting, and provides superior soundproofing. It is also a better insulator, which can help reduce energy costs. Drywall is easier to remove for future renovations.

Aesthetics: Drywall provides a smooth, uniform surface ready for paint or texture. Plaster offers a high-end, naturally textured look that can hide imperfections and is often preferred for achieving a classic or historic aesthetic.

Which is better? The choice depends on your priorities. Drywall is ideal for those prioritizing a lower upfront cost, faster installation, and DIY potential. Plaster is the better option for a higher-end project where durability, soundproofing, and a unique, premium finish are more important than the initial cost.

Knowing what causes drywall damage can help stop it before it starts. Here are some of the most common causes of drywall damage: 

  • Water damage from roof leaks or leaky pipes. 

  • Small holes caused by doorknobs, minor accidents, and rodent infestations. 

  • Wall dents stemming from moving furniture and minor accidents. 

  • Wall cracks that form from a settling foundation or seismic activity. 

  • Nail pops from nails and screws in the walls. 

  • Large holes that are caused by accidents with heavy objects, children and pets, or sporting equipment.
