When should I not use drywall anchors?

• <div><p>Drywall anchors aren’t necessary if there’s a stud behind the wall where you’ll be working. Studs are strong enough to support screws on their own, but they don’t run throughout the wall. If you’re doing a project that involves the entire wall and not just one part (like hanging a small painting or photo), odds are you’ll need drywall anchors at some point in the process. </p></div>

Is it less expensive to install drywall or a drop ceiling?

• <div><p>It is less expensive to install a drywall ceiling. Drop ceilings are generally more costly to install than drywall, but they're also easier to install. Drywall sheets are heavier than drop ceilings—weighing in at about 60 pounds each—so if you hire a pro, they may charge a little more for labor. You should also factor in paint costs for a drywall ceiling. The least expensive drywall ceiling option is the standard, smooth variety.</p></div>

Q: What is the typical lifespan of a drywall installation?

• <div><p>The average life span for drywall is between 40 and 60 years, although panels can last significantly longer in many cases if it&rsquo;s well-maintained. Of course, many things can reduce the life span of your drywall, including fire, smoke damage, water, moisture, and physical damage, like dents and holes. Thankfully, you&rsquo;re likely to get around 50 years of value out of professionally-installed drywall, making the $2,000 you&rsquo;ll spend on the job well worth it in the long run.</p></div>

Q: Is drywall finishing a DIY project?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: What are the most common drywall issues seen by professionals?

• <div><p>Cracks, water damage, and holes from fixtures or impact.</p></div>

It turned out great. The workers were on time and very polite and the work was top notch. After repainting you can not tell there was any work done at all. I would hire them again in a heartbeat.

They came when they said they would, pulled the required permits, and did a very nice job. They are a little pricier than other companies, but they do quality work and you can count on the fact that they will do the work they say they will.

I had gotten three estimates. Jay's was not necessarily the least expensive, but we felt that he was more willing to work with what we had. Jay was very willing to work within our budget. He offered suggestions to reduce costs. The basement remodel turned out better than I had imagined it could....
