Customers say: Super punctual

"I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! I just moved to the Fayetteville area, and though I can hang drywall and put down flooring, I felt overwhelmed, as I had to gut 70% of the house and the hallway. So I got someone’s business card, and they said They could drywall the hall way and my bathroom while I stepped out for a few hours. I came back and I had to let those guys go as it was bad.. I got lucky and found G&G Drywall. In a little over 4 hours they had my hallway ceiling up, and the drywall finished. They did an Amazing job beyond Any and All my expectations!!! They cleaned up and I Never was more happy to pay for a professional service in my life.. If you need a Job done right, and you don’t want to waste your time and aggravation of dealing with someone that may not finish the job, call G&G Drywall.. I Will use their services anytime I want the job done right.. my Only Regret outside of Not finding them first, is the fact I can only give them 5 Stars, because they’re So much better then a 5 star. Thanks guys!!"

"Cliff was able to remodel our front sitting room into a whiskey room. The project included custom bar, shelving, lighting, window treatments as well as focal wall. The shelving was a beautiful combination of stain and torched wood. Cliff was able to adapt to the changing vision as the project was evolving to surpass the original vision. Highly recommend!"

"still waiting for some time to pass to ensure that the problem really is fixed. It does appear to be a good job at the present, but only time will confirm the fact that the leaks have truly been fixed."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Many homeowners choose to install tongue and groove over drywall. The great thing about this type of ceiling is that it hides imperfections. If your drywall is a little bit wonky or has some minor damage, the tongue and groove planks should cover it and give it an even appearance. Installation is simplest if you install battens over the existing framing before installing your tongue and groove planks.

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.

While you can put new drywall over old drywall, it’s not always the best option. In some cases, drywalling over drywall can make it harder to find wires and pipes behind your walls and conceal more serious problems with your walls. It can also make the room smaller. On the plus side, putting drywall over drywall can improve soundproofing and insulation. Plus, it’s often less expensive than tearing down and adding new drywall.

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.

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.
