"Mark is a very talented multi skilled craftsman. My sunroom flooded from a major rainstorm. Mark and his crew removed all of the sheetrock from the walls and ceiling and then replaced the sheetrock at a very reasonable price. All of the damaged material was hauled away. They very carefully removed all of the molding and reinstalled it, saving me a lot of money. He floated the sheetrock and then painted, matching the original colors. The crew was very careful to seal off the doors which prevented project dust from entering the rest of the house. They show up every morning on time and work all day. He communicated with me as the project progressed and finished on time. I would hire Mark for any home repair or remodeling project."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Drywall can be toxic to the environment and to humans in some cases. As drywall breaks down in a landfill and comes in contact with other organic chemicals, it can create hydrogen sulfide gas or leach into the groundwater. Additionally, the CDC recommends methods for controlling the inhalation of drywall dust when handled. While the common ingredients of drywall—gypsum, silica, and mica—are naturally occurring, they can cause irritation in some humans.

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

If your home’s foundation shifts slightly over time, any seams in the drywall represent the weakest point in the wall, leading to cracks. If your home has significant changes in temperature and humidity, this can cause the drywall to swell and contract slightly, causing a crack at the weak point of the seam. If your drywall installer did a poor job securing the panels to the wall studs, this could cause a weak layout and cracks in the seams.

Certain drywall textures, like sand and sometimes popcorn, can be smoothed by applying skim coats, sanding the walls, or chipping away the texture. However, it’s worth considering removing the texture and starting with a blank canvas. Smoothing textured walls requires a lot of sandpaper and elbow grease and can take longer than just outright removing the texture.

Regularly in areas prone to moisture or high traffic to catch issues early.
