"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

Most drywall used for interior walls of homes is 1/2-inch thick. This size strikes a balance of being easy to handle and hang while being thick enough for the durability needed on interior wall applications.

Drywall tape is made of paper, while drywall mesh is made of fiberglass or metal. Drywall mesh patches are suitable for repairing small holes in drywall, while paper drywall tape holds a crease better for corners. You need joint compound to adhere drywall tape to the wall, while mesh patches may be self-adhesive.

Wall anchors are suitable for drywall and plaster walls, which are common in most homes. However, different wall materials may require specialized anchors. For concrete or masonry walls, you'd typically use concrete anchors. When dealing with other wall types, such as brick or tile, specific anchors designed for those materials may be necessary. Always consult with a hardware specialist or check the manufacturer's recommendations to ensure you select the appropriate anchors for your specific wall type.

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.

If you’re installing new drywall, you may need to skim coat the drywall first for a smooth finish and to allow the primer to adhere to the wall. It’s only necessary if there are imperfections in your drywall due to issues with the studs or improper drywall installation. If you’re refreshing existing walls, you may want to skim coat if there are imperfections across the wall. As an alternative, you can repair your drywall and sand it for a smooth finish before painting.
