"Bill fixed all the corners in my bedroom where the the drywall tape was messed up and cracks were seen. See the pictures below. I also had some electrical work done in my pool house which required cutting out the bottom half of the drywall all around the room. He hung new drywall and taped everything. He made both rooms look like new! And did it in a timely manner and left no clean up for me! Highly recommend!! He shows up when you call and gets a really good job done in such a reasonable about of time."

"We recently hired Family Paint and Drywall to complete some painting and drywall work in our basement. Kevin, the owner, was easy to communicate with and provided pricing quickly after our first meeting. The crew was friendly, tidy and professional. They completed the job a day early and left our house as clean as they found it. We are so happy with the finished product and we will be using them again!"

"Highly recommend Zzeo's Home Restorations. Extremely satisfied with the project work. Has water leakage into the house above the living room double windows. At first thought that the source was a roof overhang above the window. Angel gave an estimate for the work assuming it was the source. However, he warned that source could be from cracks in to mortar of the rock façade and would not know until some of the interior dry wall above the window and the roofing on the overhang was removed. Unfortunately the overhang was not the source of water intrusion. Thus had to remove the rock façade to find the source. Anel gave me a revised estimate for the work needed. So the damaged exterior wood was replace and interior drywall section replaced. The outside section where the rocks were removed was properly waterproofed. Instead of rock had this section replace with bricks. Also since the second floor window just above the leak and the double living room room window were in need of repair or replacement, had these windows replaced. Angel kept us informed as work progressed. His crew were very respectful and knowledgeable. The project results were extremely satisfying. As the project was being completed, my neighbors were very much impressed with workmanship and beauty of the work. Again highly recommend Zzeo's Home Restorations. I anticipate that I will use them for future projects."

"I found David and Trav Construction on Thumbtack, and I’m so glad I did. Finding honest and reliable contractors can be difficult, but David exceeded my expectations from the start. He sent a team of professional workers who completed the job efficiently and with great attention to detail. The project was expected to take two days, but they actually finished everything in just one day without sacrificing quality. There was one small detail regarding the wall texture that wasn’t completed exactly as I had envisioned. However, it’s located at the very bottom of the wall and is hardly noticeable, so it did not impact my overall satisfaction with the work. Communication throughout the project was excellent. David was professional, responsive, and kept me updated every step of the way. His team was knowledgeable, helpful, and clearly experienced in what they do. In fact, I’ve already hired Trav Construction for another project and am just waiting for my materials to arrive before they"

"Tom did more than just drywall for us, we used him for numerous home repairs. I cannot express it enough how honest and friendly Tom is. The level of comfort instantly really made hiring him stress free. He was always on time, he kept in touch about projects, and even followed up after a few days to make sure we were still happy with everything. That's above and beyond in my book. I would easily recommend Tom over any other handyman I have ever used. My family will only be using him in the future. It's wonderful to find someone so honest and reliable. Excellent work. We couldn't be happier Molly and Joe"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.

The two most common drywall thicknesses for ceilings are 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch. For most standard residential applications, 1/2-inch drywall is sufficient and widely used. It provides adequate support and is lighter and easier to handle during installation compared to thicker sheets. However, 5/8-inch drywall is often used for specific cases where additional benefits are needed. It is heavier but provides superior sound dampening and fire resistance. You should consider using 5/8-inch drywall for ceilings in commercial buildings, between a garage and a living space, or above a finished basement to meet building codes or for enhanced soundproofing.

In most cases, plaster repair will improve your home’s energy efficiency because a solid barrier of the insulative material helps keep conditioned air inside your home. Major plaster repair jobs like repairing large cracks or crumbling sections of plaster or applying a skim coat might make a noticeable difference in your heating and cooling bills. Not only can plaster repairs improve efficiency, but they can also reduce strain on your HVAC equipment, potentially saving you money on maintenance and repairs.

Yes, you can use drywall repair techniques for some types of plaster damage. Tiny holes and small cracks in plaster can be patched in similar ways to drywall. You apply the necessary compound to fill the hole, wait for it to dry, then sand it down. For larger damage, like water damage or mold, you need to use plaster-specific techniques and materials.

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.
