"We had an unfinished basement needing drywall on the walls and ceiling. After Paul & his team completed the work, the area looked great! If you want high quality work at a fair price, then you should definitely consider them. They were very professional while at our home and punctual coming out every morning until the job was completed. They also did a great job tidying up the work area every day before leaving and at the completion of the project. Overall, I highly recommend!"

"We had our bedroom completely done. There was old wallpaper and old carpet. The wallpaper was removed and the walls were repaired and prepped for painting. There was a lot of prep work done. The carpet was removed and the floor was prepped for vinyl planking. The owner, Brandon, was able to match the floor that had been installed in the hallway two years ago. It was an ordeal, but he accomplished it. The paint job turned out beautiful, as well as the floor. I had no idea who Wall King was, but I am so happy we tried them. Brandon kept us informed of everything that was going on. He always showed up when he said he would. He and his crew were wonderful. Very friendly, professional, and took the time to get things done right. I would highly recommend them. You won’t be sorry."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

If you’re installing new drywall, you may need to skim coat the drywall first for a smooth finish and to allow the primer to adhere to the wall. It’s only necessary if there are imperfections in your drywall due to issues with the studs or improper drywall installation. If you’re refreshing existing walls, you may want to skim coat if there are imperfections across the wall. As an alternative, you can repair your drywall and sand it for a smooth finish before painting.

It doesn’t matter which way you lay drywall, and you can choose to install it horizontally or vertically depending on the size of the wall and how tall the ceiling is. It’s easier to lay drywall sheets vertically if you have a taller ceiling, but laying sheets horizontally makes it easier to apply joint compound.

A utility knife is sharp enough to score the drywall and it may work in a pinch for outlet box holes. However, one of the best tools for drywall when you need to make exact cuts for an outlet box quickly is a drywall saw. This handheld tool has a longer blade than a utility knife, so it penetrates the thickness of the drywall easily. The design of its handle and the teeth in its blade make it easier to control while cutting quicker than you can with a utility knife.

There are six levels of drywall finish, from 0 to 5, that refer to the amount of work performed during the finishing process.

Level 0: Drywall is hung with no finishing work.

Level 1: Tape is placed over the seams between drywall sheets.

Level 2: A thin layer of mud is applied over the tape and screw holes. This level is common for utility rooms or walls that will be covered.

Level 3: A full coat of mud covers the screw holes and tape, but the surface is not sanded. This is often used in garages.

Level 4: This is the most common finish for visible interior walls. It involves applying two coats of mud over seams and screw holes, with sanding between each coat, creating a smooth surface ready for flat paint.

Level 5: This is a high-end finish for luxury homes. It includes full taping, mudding, and sanding, plus a final skim coat over the entire surface before painting.

Installing or repairing plaster on ceilings differs slightly from performing the same motions on a wall. You’ll apply slightly less plaster to lower the overall weight of the ceiling. Wall texturing is common, whereas most ceilings are smooth plaster. Tough coat plaster is strong, meaning you can use less while retaining a solid surface.
