"I enjoyed working with Steve on my basement finish project. He was very flexible with our schedule. Even though it was a smaller project, he made us feel like it was important to him to do a good job. I would recommend Ceplecha Drywall and will definitely try and work with Steve in the future if I have more drywall needs."

"Si Fuentes/Pancho are great. Fast call back to bid the project. They showed up a few days later and finished the job inside of 2 weeks. This was drywalling a new room and blending in a room where I knocked down a wall. They went the extra mile in prepping the drywall all of the little imperfections from me hanging the drywall myself. Cleaned up the project site nicely. I would recommend for sure."

"Since we bought our house in March, we have dealt with many contractors. Jose & Angela are by far the most professional and honest among all of them. They took care of a drywall+door installation and a bathroom fan replacement. Among the 4 contractors we contacted for this, they were the only ones showing up in person to provide a quote. The others only asked for pictures to provide quotes. The quote from Jose & Angela was very reasonable. A couple of times, the project required some extra costs due to the specifics of the door and the fan we purchased. Jose was very transparent in motivating the additional costs and quickly updated our contract both times. At each step, we knew what we were paying for and why. The final job was absolutely high quality. Moreover, Jose and his team did all they could to minimize the impact of dust, etc, on the rest of the house. They will certainly be our first choice for any future work on the house that falls within their expertise."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Water-damaged drywall should almost always be replaced. Not only does it look bad, it’s a breeding ground for toxic mold. Even if you think the area is dry and there’s no active leak, the only way to be sure is to cut out the damaged area and see for yourself.

You can paint over drywall mud about 24 hours after application, but the exact timing depends on factors like humidity, temperature, and the thickness of the mud. For the best results, ensure the mud is completely dry to the touch and has changed from a darker gray to a lighter, chalky white. Don’t forget to sand and prime the drywall surface before you paint to create a smooth, even finish.

Plaster is a pretty tough surface, but it can still sustain damage from things like bumping against it, water issues, dampness, extreme humidity changes, and plain old age. Most plaster walls last hundreds of years and will only be taken down to the base layer when major repairs are required. Being cautious around the wall, not placing furniture against it, and ensuring stable humidity are all great ways to reduce possible damage.

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.

Plaster is denser, harder, and more porous than drywall, so it absorbs moisture differently. This means you’ll often need more prep work, such as thorough sanding, patching, and priming with a high-quality bonding primer. Additionally, you may need more coats of paint to achieve even coverage. While the process takes more time, it helps ensure a durable and professional-looking result.
