"If anyone is looking to finish their garage or detached garage and loft you should consider securing Silas and his team! They are professional, punctual and dedicated to getting the job done RIGHT and most importantly, to your liking! He and his team did our insulation, drywall, paint, baseboards, and flooring! Silas communicates each day his comings, goings, and next steps. He and his team worked long hours to get the job done and we could not be happier with how our project turned out! He even, hung the curtains over the steps as we would not have been able to do it ourselves! I highly recommend Silas C. Drywall!!!"

"Fred was extremely knowledgeable about and did a great job installing the faucets as well as fixing the drywall in my garage, patching a hole in the siding and cleaning my dryer vent. He will be installing a fan in my porch soon. His rates are very fair and he is personable and on time. I highly recommend Fred Buckles!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Many homeowners choose to install tongue and groove over drywall. The great thing about this type of ceiling is that it hides imperfections. If your drywall is a little bit wonky or has some minor damage, the tongue and groove planks should cover it and give it an even appearance. Installation is simplest if you install battens over the existing framing before installing your tongue and groove planks.

Drywall anchors won’t work on plaster. Instead, they will more than likely cause more damage and pull out the plaster. The best type of anchors to use on plaster walls are the ones that will bite into the surrounding area, such as molly bolts and toggle bolts. Masonry anchors with expanders on the sides also work for lighter pictures.

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.

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.

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.
