Q: Do you have to replace drywall after water damage?

• <div><p>Drywall can get wet and dry out without sustaining permanent damage, but only if the water damage is minor. If you have a small leak and are quick to correct the issue and set up blower fans and dehumidifiers, your drywall should dry out. If the leak is persistent, the drywall becomes totally waterlogged, or mold begins forming on the drywall, you should remove and replace it.</p></div>

Q: How soon can you paint after drywall mud?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;t forget to sand and prime the drywall surface before you paint to create a smooth, even finish.</p></div>

Q: How much does plastering a wall cost?

• <div><p>Applying plaster to a wall will usually cost between <b>$2 and $10</b> <b>per square foot</b> for both the material and labor. The cost will vary based on the quality of the plaster you&rsquo;re using and whether or not prep work is required before the work begins. Wall prep can add up to about 10% to your total costs. Plastering exterior walls can be more expensive in many cases because they are taller and require scaffolding and safety equipment.</p></div>

Q: Can you plaster over broken plaster?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you&rsquo;re referring to cracked, in which case that&rsquo;s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it&rsquo;s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage. </p></div>

Q: What if I miscut the outlet hole in the drywall?

• <div><p>Depending on the place where the cutting error occurred, you may be able to fix it. Learning <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/patch-drywall-hole-6-simple-steps.htm">how to patch a hole in drywall</a> is challenging, but if you can tape and mud drywall, you can do it. Having said that, patching is time consuming. Early in the installation process, you may find that it&rsquo;s easier and far less time consuming to just start over with a new sheet of drywall, cutting a new hole in the right spot. You may be able to use part of the incorrectly cut piece elsewhere, so it&rsquo;s not completely wasted.</p></div>

I am a Christian family man, I just started this business about a month ago, though I have been doing this work on and off for years. I offer drywall installation and repair, wall covering, laminate floor installation, basic plumbing, and basic electrical as applies to drywalling adding outlets and moving switches etc. I do not drink or do drugs, and I show up if I say I will. And if the job is something I can't do, I am not too prideful to admit it, I will also try to put you in touch with someone who can. God Bless, and I hope to hear from you.
