"Next Phase Drywall just completed a full house popcorn ceiling removal. We have never had such a positive experience in remodeling. Bryant, the project manager is so knowledgeable, has great communication, and gave us an itemization of the process along with a timeline. The entire team was exemplary and we couldn’t be more pleased. We would highly recommend Next Phase Drywall for any of your drywall needs, they also paint as well. Cannot thank you enough Team Bryant!!!"

He’s done 2 flooring projects, a drywall project and a ceiling project for me and all came out amazing. Very fair pricing and gave me tons of advice and tips along the way. Highly recommend him and all of his helpers."

"Mike and Crystal were very professional from the first phone contact through the completion of the work. They showed up on time, their work was neat and they worked very efficiently. My windows were in pretty bad shape. They really took their time and prepped them very well which showed in the finished product. When asked to redo or touch up anything it was done without question. In the end we received a very good paint job on a timely basis and at a competitive price. I have already recommended Mike's Painting to others in my neighborhood and would use him again for future painting needs.

"Omar of Omar Drywall, came to our house and quickly measured, then assessed the problem and gave a solid quote for the job, which we accepted. Omar set up a time to return to patch the large hole which was created by drywall having been removed because of mold from a leak behind our washer. Omar worked quietly and steadily until the job was completed. The results were excellent! Throughout the job, Omar communicated clearly and answered all the questions we had. We would definite recommend Omar for any, large and small, drywall projects you have."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Look for flaking paint or air bubbles that burst and then flake away. Paint will begin to flake after being exposed to minimal moisture or water, so it’s a good indicator of any water damage. If you notice your paint starting to flake, feel the plaster underneath to see if it is soft or damp.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

You can paint over drywall mud about 24 hours after application, but the exact timing depends on factors like humidity, temperature, and the thickness of the mud. For the best results, ensure the mud is completely dry to the touch and has changed from a darker gray to a lighter, chalky white. Don’t forget to sand and prime the drywall surface before you paint to create a smooth, even finish.

Whether it’s better to screw or glue drywall depends on your specific budget and project timeline. Professional drywall installers are more likely to use screws and fasteners than adhesives, but it takes longer. But if you are DIYing your drywall installation, glue is a perfectly fine choice if you’re willing to pay extra for adhesive.

Some painters will repair minor drywall damage. For repair work of any kind, it’s a good idea to hire the professional required for the job. Many painters will have the materials on hand and can add them to the total cost. While you may save some money, there is a chance the work will be subpar compared to a professional who specializes in drywall.
