"The project was to hang 5/8 drywall on the ceiling and 1/2 drywall on the walls and finish in two rooms of 1955 built home. One room is 12x 16 and the other is 5x7 Daniel schedule a time to come out to draw up a material list and coordinated the material delivery time. I was impressed with the schedule. When Daniel schedule an event, they were on time. The work was done in a timely manner with a friendly professional attitude. Since my wife and I were going to do the painting, Daniel instructed us on the steps to take to achieve a pro looking finished walls. After applying the PVA paint we noticed a few minor imperfections and Daniel came out fixed them right away. These type of minor imperfections are expected on new drywall installs and are handled most of the time by a professional painter. To sum up my experience with The Mud Studs, they are on time, friendly, professional and do a great job with minimum impact on the rest of the house. Great guys great job. I highly recommend them if you want a drywall job done right."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Drywall repair is typically completed within a day, depending on damage extent.

Only use spackle on plaster walls when the imperfection is small. It’s best used for nail holes or small dings in the plaster. Spackle dries quickly, allowing you to continue the repair process shortly after using it. Plaster can be tricky to repair, though, so if you run into issues, call a pro so that you don’t risk further damage.

Yes, applying a texture can hide minor imperfections and irregularities in drywall, but it will not cover significant damage like nail marks or screw holes. The best texture depends on the size of the flaws. For minor imperfections, popular choices like orange peel, sand, or popcorn texture are effective. For larger imperfections, you may need a more prominent style, such as a knockdown or trowel finish, to conceal them effectively.

You can paint over plaster, but repair any damage to the plaster first, or the paint will crack and bubble. You should also prepare the surface of the plaster to accept paint, which gives your paint job the best chance of looking good and lasting a long time. Before applying the color you want, apply a coat or two of primer. Additionally, use latex paint, and choose a latex paint with a satin finish for areas with dampness, like bathrooms.

You should wait at least 24 hours for drywall mud to dry before sanding or applying another coat. However, the exact drying time depends on several factors, including the thickness of the application, room temperature, humidity, and the type of compound used. Thicker layers, or projects in high humidity, may require 48 hours or more. Lightweight compounds tend to dry faster than heavier, all-purpose ones. You'll know the mud is ready when it feels completely dry and firm to the touch and has changed to a consistent light color. Sanding too early can cause smudging or gouges, so patience is essential for a smooth finish.
