Q: What are the disadvantages of using plaster?

• <div><p>Plaster is a beautiful finish but is labor-intensive to install and remove. It&rsquo;s vulnerable to cracking and more sensitive to moisture variance than drywall. Installing plaster on a new wall is an expensive process that can take days to weeks, depending on the scope. Removing a plaster wall can also be quite expensive and time-consuming.</p></div>

Q: What is standard drywall thickness?

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

Q: Will drywall need to be replaced if it gets wet?

• <div><p>Yes, any parts of drywall that are wet or overly moist will need to be replaced. Drywall is intended to be dry (it&rsquo;s in the name, after all.), as excess moisture can lead to mold and mildew and eventually corrode your home&rsquo;s foundational building pieces. Do regular inspections in your home to make sure all your plumbing is intact and in good condition&mdash;this will go a long way toward preventing leaks.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain textured walls?

• <div><p>Regular dusting, occasional repainting, and avoiding harsh scrubbing preserve the finish.</p></div>

Q: Why hire a professional for drywall repair?

• <div><p>Pros ensure smooth finishes and lasting repairs, avoiding visible patches.</p></div>

"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."
