"My home was in need of major drywall repair due to poor patchwork and DIY projects by the previous owners. I also had Robert remove one tall popcorn ceiling and paint it white for me. Robert will do everything he can to get the job done right, in a timely manner, and at fair prices. Throughout my entire experience, I felt that Robert was there to help me as his customer and that he was on my side. He was very courteous toward my home and needs and made my walls and ceilings look better, 20-fold."

"They did an excellent job! They ended up painting our whole house including some ceilings. There was paint designs they had to cover up and you can’t even tell anything was ever there. They had to fix holes in the wall,etc. they did so well that we asked them to remodel a room for us. They combined two rooms into one and it looks awesome! I keep sending them requests for other things I’d like done!"

"When I posted my repair job on Angi, I received a response right away from Pivot Anesthetics. Jason rearranged his schedule to meet my schedule and came out the same day to assess my job. I hired Jason right away because of this mannerism and professionalism. We set up a date for the repairs,Jason was right on time. I also ask Jason if he could also repair & re-grout my front patio he did'nt hesitate to take on that job too. Jason's work ethics were great. He got all repairs done in one day! I was so impressed with the great job he did, my drywall job and patio looks great, the patio looks brand new. His work was excellent! I will definitely hire Jason & his team again. I highly recommend Pivot Anesthetics! Thank you Jason for as job very well done!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Yes, drywall nail pops are a common occurrence in homes, both new and old, resulting from the settling and shifting of the structure over time. Though not present in every room or on every wall, encountering nail pops in different sections of a home is not unusual, particularly if the temperature, humidity, or foundation has experienced changes.

To hide drywall edges, you need to properly apply drywall tape and multiple layers of joint compound. These materials hide the seams between drywall sheets and fill the holes from drywall screws, leaving behind a smooth, flat finish to paint over. Apply joint compound smoothly, and finish the job by sanding the walls to make sure you fully hide drywall edges and other imperfections.

You can usually tell if you have plaster or drywall by touch (plaster is harder, colder, and smoother than drywall) or by tapping on it (drywall sounds hollow, plaster does not). If you still cannot tell, peek under an outlet cover and check the cut edges. The rough edges show the composition of the wall. You will see either drywall (two paper sheets sandwiching gypsum material) or only plaster material (no paper sheets).

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.

Both plaster and drywall are durable wall finishes, but they differ significantly in installation, cost, performance, and aesthetics.

Installation & Cost: Drywall installation is faster and more affordable, typically costing $1.50 to $3 per square foot. It uses premade sheets, making it a more accessible DIY project. Plastering is a labor-intensive craft that requires specialized skills, pushing costs to $2 to $10 per square foot. It involves applying a wet paste over a lath framework.

Durability & Performance: Plaster is generally more durable, longer-lasting, and provides superior soundproofing. It is also a better insulator, which can help reduce energy costs. Drywall is easier to remove for future renovations.

Aesthetics: Drywall provides a smooth, uniform surface ready for paint or texture. Plaster offers a high-end, naturally textured look that can hide imperfections and is often preferred for achieving a classic or historic aesthetic.

Which is better? The choice depends on your priorities. Drywall is ideal for those prioritizing a lower upfront cost, faster installation, and DIY potential. Plaster is the better option for a higher-end project where durability, soundproofing, and a unique, premium finish are more important than the initial cost.
