"We needed to have the ceiling drywall in our garage replaced (after almost 50 years of baking in the Carolina sun it had become crumbly and started to pull loose from the drywall nails, and a section of it fell). They arrived right on time to give us a very reasonable and competitive quote, and were able to fit us in the following day. They arrived promptly, and by 5:30 PM the work was all done. Very neat job and we are super happy with the work."

"Walter and his crew were amazing and do so much more than framing and drywall. They created a beautiful master suite for us from scratch - including full bath, 2 closets, flooring, painting, etc. They even added on a smaller kitchen project for me too in the midst of the bedroom suite creation. Everyone was professional, timely, and the work is excellent. I've already scheduled them for another project."

"We hired Keen Precision Drywall to finish our shed that will be used as a s/he shed, complete with electric. The shed is now ready for paint and decor and their work was impressive. They were always on time, communicating any issues that they ran into that were inevitably the fault of the builder. From the very beginning they were transparent with pricing and responsive to any questions we had even prior to being hired for the job. I would not hesitate to hire Kevin again for any other work at our home and we would happily refer them to others."

"They showed up early the first day, but waited until our agreed-upon time to ring the doorbell. They were friendly, neat, and very professional. My house looks great and look forward to hiring them again for my next project!"

"Ignacio and his team were awesome. The work they did was high quality. We needed extensive drywall repairs after taking down chair rail in several rooms. The walls now looks great! They are professional and courteous. I will definitely call them the next time I need help."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.

The cost to install drywall is between $1.50 and $3 per square foot, while shiplap installation costs between $2 and $7 on average. In most applications, shiplap installations cost more than that of putting in drywall. However, several ways exist to reduce shiplap prices, especially for small locations or accent walls, which can keep the total cost of shiplap competitive with that of drywall.

There are several things you should not do when installing drywall. Common mistakes include: adding too many screws, over-sanding, not adding backing support, and installing drywall unevenly. You also should avoid screwing into the same place twice, installing Sheetrock with tapered edges on the outside, and making too many joints.

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