"After I gutted my bathroom and installed a new tub/shower, I hired Dave to put up and finish new drywall. He takes great pride in his craft, and it shows. His work was impeccable. His attention to detail was very impressive. He showed up exactly when he said he would each day, worked constantly, and left nothing to clean up. He kept me up to date every step of the way, always explaining his technique. When he encountered that would improperly fastened the insulation on the studs, he graciously pointed out my error, corrected it, and explained how I was to properly do it next time. Dave is very personable, respectful, and took great care to leave very little trace that he'd been in the house. I will go to Dave for every drywall project. Simply excellent. Thank you, sir!"

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

White walls are the toughest color to keep clean and maintain, as they’re extremely unforgiving when it comes to dirt, splatters, dust, and smudges. Still, many people look past their high-maintenance requirements because they lighten and modernize a space beautifully. If you’re opting for white walls, it’s especially important to keep up with regular cleanings, so they stay pristine.

Costs depend on damage extent of damage, labor, finishing, and whether mold remediation is needed.

While a normal moisture level for drywall is between 5% and 12%, replacement is recommended if you get consistent readings above 17%. At this level, the drywall is likely too compromised by extensive moisture damage to be considered safe. You can replace either the entire sheet or just the affected section. If you are unsure after a visual inspection, it is best to have a contractor or water restoration provider use a professional moisture meter to get an accurate reading.

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.

The age of your home can clue you in to whether you have plaster or drywall ceilings. Homes built after the ‘70s are more likely to have drywall ceilings and walls, while older homes have plaster. You can also do the pushpin test: A pushpin will go into drywall, whereas it’s much harder to push one into a plaster wall. If you’re still unsure, ask a drywall professional to let you know which type of ceilings and walls you have.
