New business looking to build a brand. For all your construction or home improvement needs. No job to big or small!

"Project took longer than expected even with a team of 4-5 guys in and out a day. Everything that went wrong or caused them delay was somehow our houses fault or the items we bought to be replaced. We bought sticky floor plastic to put down on our floors/stairs after 2 days because the floor covering they were using were useless and was causing our carpet to get stains. At times we could hear team members complaining about the job which was very unprofessional since we were paying them. When the shower head and handle were installed it was not attached to anything so the wall would just bend in if lightly pushed. This was fixed after my husband brought it up. Early on we expressed our concerned for the drywall finishing on one side of the shower but we’ were assured it would be fixed and smoothed out but was not the case and was just painted over and left. Paid 200$ for trim/ install and some was left scratched up and unfinished. The sanding/ painting is very sloppy and left unfinished in my opinion. After they claimed complete went to take a shower and had no hot water. Informed them and was told I they thought it was our hot water heater when actually it was because the plumber didn’t check the setting of the handle befor leaving. He had to come back to adjust. Not even 24hours after they “completed” our bathroom the transition strips came off and we had to attach them ourselves. The bathroom door wouldn’t shut and needed to be trimmed we let them know but there was no response. Do not pay until you are 100% happy with their work or you may be ghosted."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Drywall does not necessarily need to be glued to the ceiling, especially when it is properly screwed or nailed into place. Drywall is typically attached to the ceiling joists using screws or nails, ensuring a secure and stable drywall installation

However, in certain situations where additional adhesion is required, construction adhesive can be applied in combination with screws or nails. This is often done for ceilings with specific acoustic or insulation requirements. It's essential to follow local building codes and best practices to determine if adhesive use is necessary for your specific project.

Yes, 1/2-inch thick drywall is commonly used for ceilings in residential construction. It provides adequate support and is easier to handle and install compared to thicker drywall sheets. Thicker drywall, such as 5/8-inch, is typically used for ceilings in commercial buildings or areas requiring additional fire resistance or soundproofing. However, for most standard residential applications, 1/2-inch drywall is sufficient and widely accepted.

Level 4 is the most commonly used drywall finish for visible interior walls. Finishing the drywall to Level 4 rovides a smooth surface ready to be painted with flat paint. 

Level 2 and 3 finishing are also common, particularly on walls that will get covered.

Yes, it’s possible to hang drywall by yourself, but it can be challenging (and more expensive). Without an extra set of hands, you’ll need to invest in a drywall lift to position the heavy drywall sheets on the wall. You can buy one of these drywall tools for a few hundred dollars at your nearest home improvement store.

Many ceiling ideas can serve as alternatives to installing a drop ceiling. Rooms suited to drop ceilings can also accommodate a painted drywall ceiling, taking on any color you want. You may also be able to install wood beams or paneling, tin or copper tile, or decorative elements like a tray ceiling or coffered ceiling.
