"David was very professional. A-grade work. He did what he said and blowed us away with an exceptional work. He is a must recruit for drywall. He was on time. Provided every detail before the work started and made sure the place to be clean after he completed. Definitely a 5 star."

"Wes was very quick in his response. Wes and Jay came out and repaired my bathroom ceiling. Drywall was replaced then retextured in the same day. Quick and great service. Now I can put my house on the market next week!"

"Angelo was fantastic, he came same-day to check out my project. He was insightful, curious, and was a huge help! His team came next day to fulfill and complete the drywall project and I could not recommend them more for projects in the Charlotte area. They were extremely friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable answering any questions I had thoughtfully and with patience. As a new home owner, I’ll continue to use Angelo and his team for all future projects!"

"Another great job by Dave from his team Cransten Handyman and Remodeling, we had a ceiling leak that had done some damage in our garage they removed all the molded things, took out the damage, replaced insulation, put up new drywall, and painted and all looks great again. I am very satisfied with their work, a very knowledgeable team. I recommend this company for having a professional worker!"

"Our experience with City Limits Construction was "Outstanding." We explained our issue with our Widows and drywall, that might have had mildew, and Nick knew exactly what it was and repaired our parlor and Dinning room. Very professional, within our budget, and completed the job in almost half the time allotted for the project. When Nick left our Home, the area was spotless, and No construction pieces or parts were left in our house. On-time when we made the appointment and super professional...knows his craft. We definitely will use City Limits Construction for many other project opportunities we might have to complete in the future. Highly Recommend them and their superb professional work. Marvin Love"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

In some minor cases, you can DIY drywall repair with minimal time and money spent. This method is best when you have a hole made by a singular problem, such as accidental furniture moving, and not a continuous problem, like a rodent infestation. 

Knowing what product to use is crucial. For example, small holes only need spackle, whereas large holes might need a new piece of drywall. You can flex your DIY abilities on this project, but if you’d like a second opinion or have a more significant problem, it’s best to call in a drywall repair pro.

The cost to skim coat drywall is $1.15 to $1.35 per square foot. Most of the cost is labor, for the necessary skills to apply the skim coat with precision using high-quality tools. This is a job better left to the professionals for the best outcomes.

How you hang the drywall can affect the finishing process. It's often easier to finish horizontal drywall panels, as the seams run across the wall rather than up and down. Standard drywall panels are 48 inches wide, so the seam is easy to reach without bending down or stretching your arms.

You should leave a gap between drywall sheets because they naturally expand and contract along with the building framing as temperature and humidity change. Most pro drywall installers leave a gap of about ⅛ inch between drywall sheets, allowing the sheets to expand, contract, and shift without cracking or becoming damaged. If you don’t leave enough gaps between slabs, the edges will press against each other when they expand, and the pressure can cause visible cracks.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.
