"If anyone is looking to finish their garage or detached garage and loft you should consider securing Silas and his team! They are professional, punctual and dedicated to getting the job done RIGHT and most importantly, to your liking! He and his team did our insulation, drywall, paint, baseboards, and flooring! Silas communicates each day his comings, goings, and next steps. He and his team worked long hours to get the job done and we could not be happier with how our project turned out! He even, hung the curtains over the steps as we would not have been able to do it ourselves! I highly recommend Silas C. Drywall!!!"

"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."

Small jobs welcome

"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!"

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.

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.

There are six levels of drywall finish, from 0 to 5, that refer to the amount of work performed during the finishing process.

Level 0: Drywall is hung with no finishing work.

Level 1: Tape is placed over the seams between drywall sheets.

Level 2: A thin layer of mud is applied over the tape and screw holes. This level is common for utility rooms or walls that will be covered.

Level 3: A full coat of mud covers the screw holes and tape, but the surface is not sanded. This is often used in garages.

Level 4: This is the most common finish for visible interior walls. It involves applying two coats of mud over seams and screw holes, with sanding between each coat, creating a smooth surface ready for flat paint.

Level 5: This is a high-end finish for luxury homes. It includes full taping, mudding, and sanding, plus a final skim coat over the entire surface before painting.

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.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.
