"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."

"Had a few patches in drywall that needed repairing due to a leak in my house. Heard from them almost immediately after putting in a request. Communication back-and-forth was fantastic. The work was done and completed neatly in a timely fashion. Everything done as I needed it to be. I would recommend 10 times out of 10 to anybody that needs some drywall work done."

"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!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Beadboard is a decorative element and lacks the structural integrity of drywall. It cannot hold much weight and is not meant to be used as an insulator or moisture barrier, like drywall is. In almost all cases, beadboard is placed over an existing wall surface which, in modern days, is usually drywall, but decades ago could have been wood paneling.

Metal corners, often referred to as corner beads for square corners, are used on drywall installations to provide structural reinforcement to vulnerable outside corners. Their usage safeguards against chipping, denting, or other forms of damage, enhancing the overall durability of the wall. Metal corners also offer a precise and straight edge that facilitates sharp and clean lines, crucial for achieving a polished and professional finish.

You can technically just paint over hairline cracks in plaster since these cracks are often harmless, but this will mostly be a waste of paint. Paint will only hide the hairline crack for a few months before it shows up again. The best solution is to repair the crack with flexible filler or joint compound before repainting.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.
