"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

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.

A nail in drywall cannot hold very much—usually only a few pounds. A nail in a stud can add support and hold around 20 pounds. If you are trying to hang something heavier, get some help from drywall anchors—toggle bolts are very strong and able to withstand more weight.

Textured walls can increase the value of your home if the style is modern and seen as a desirable feature and not something a prospective buyer would need to remedy. A good example of this is popcorn texture versus Venetian plaster. The plaster wall would add value to your home, whereas the popcorn texture may be something a new buyer would want to remove.

Professionals mount TVs using specialized tools and knowledge of different wall materials, ensuring safe support.

A utility knife is sharp enough to score the drywall and it may work in a pinch for outlet box holes. However, one of the best tools for drywall when you need to make exact cuts for an outlet box quickly is a drywall saw. This handheld tool has a longer blade than a utility knife, so it penetrates the thickness of the drywall easily. The design of its handle and the teeth in its blade make it easier to control while cutting quicker than you can with a utility knife.
