"I contacted G&G Drywall to give me an estimate on repairing the ceiling in my family room. He came out the next day to give me the estimate for doing the room. The price was reasonable, so I added the living room ceiling. They arrived at 8:00 a.m. and proceeded to move and cover everything. By 2:00 p.m. they were in the process of cleaning up. I have never seen a contractor get on his knees to vacuum up every bit of insulation and dust they could see. I am so so very pleased with the work performed by Guy Graham and his crew. Polite, professional and I would recommend them to anyone looking for drywall service. They are definitely a cut above the rest!"

"Kevin with Local Handyman Pros recently remodeled my bathroom and I can’t recommend him enough. They replaced my vanity, toilet, lights, painted the walls, and did the flooring. I have used them for many projects over the years and have referred the company to others. From the start of the project, they were fast to respond, transparent, about pricing, and showed up on time. Best experience I have had with a service professional!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.

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.

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.

You’ll want to inspect your plaster walls for signs of damage before painting. If you notice soft spots, deep cracks, bubbling, or areas where the plaster is crumbling or pulling away from the wall, it likely needs repair. While small hairline cracks are common and likely cosmetic, you should address larger issues before painting to ensure a quality, smooth finish.

When used correctly, drywall patch kits can work well. However, there are limitations. Specifically, these kits can only cover holes up to 5 inches in diameter. For anything larger than that, you’ll need to cut out the affected section of drywall and replace it with a new piece. That’s a far more complicated process that involves buying the right type of drywall, finding the wall studs, cutting into your wall, and screwing the replacement drywall in place.
