"Extremely professional. Very clean, drywall can be very messy, and they were careful to cleanup each day. Wonderful crew, no foul language and very polite. Work was topnotch. My house was in ruins from a flood, and they made it better than new!"

"Jesus with SEG Drywall went above and beyond my expectations! They were one of three vendors who helped me get my home back after my contractor had accepted my deposit and all but ghosted me. I heard from him within minutes of submitting a request for a quote, and he was out the next day to assess the damage. I had a fair quote the following day that included (separately at my request) pricing for just the drywall and insulation, and a price that included painting. He helped me match the paint color in my rooms better than I could have done on my own, and made helpful suggestions that helped me in the improvement projects I’d chosen to take on myself. While I hope to never need SEG’s drywall services again, I will definitely be saving their number for future painting and to pass on to my friends. Thank you, Jesus, and the entire team at SEG Drywall for your kindness, respect, and follow through. I’m not sure I would have made it back home this year if I hadn’t reached out to you!"

"We called Walter at American Acoustics to take over a job from another drywall company that wasnâ t doing a very good job hanging the drywall. Walter organized a new hanging crew within days and within a week our house was textured and completed! What impressed me the most was Walterâ s extensive knowledge of the drywall process and drywall business which he openly shared. He has outstanding communication skills and communicated the plan every step along the way. I highly recommend you contact Walter at American Acoustics for your drywall project!"

"Hired Humberto to strip a ton of old wallpaper and repaint our place in Tahoe. Two full floors, probably 2000 sq ft worth of walls. Wallpaper was everywhere and honestly I wasn’t sure what we were going to find underneath it, but his crew handled the whole thing: removal, sealing, knockdown texture, primer, two coats of paint by hand. Communication was great from the start. He called me the same day he sent the estimate and walked through his whole process which I appreciated since we were managing the project remotely. Humberto sent photos every single day as they went which was huge since we couldn’t be there during the work. Him and his crew were there every day and they finished right when they said they would. House looked great when we showed up for memorial day weekend. Clean work, no mess left behind. I would absolutely use Humberto again. He's my go-to paint guy in Tahoe now."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.

Yes, you can hammer a nail into a wall stud. But before you do, it’s important to confirm that you’re actually nailing into a stud—and not wiring, pipes, or ductwork. To check, find a few more studs in the wall, then measure to make sure they’re either 16 or 24 inches apart.

Knowing what causes drywall damage can help stop it before it starts. Here are some of the most common causes of drywall damage: 

  • Water damage from roof leaks or leaky pipes. 

  • Small holes caused by doorknobs, minor accidents, and rodent infestations. 

  • Wall dents stemming from moving furniture and minor accidents. 

  • Wall cracks that form from a settling foundation or seismic activity. 

  • Nail pops from nails and screws in the walls. 

  • Large holes that are caused by accidents with heavy objects, children and pets, or sporting equipment.

Popular wall textures include orange peel, knockdown, spray sand, and smooth finishes. Orange peel and knockdown are particularly common choices for drywall as they are simple and cost-effective. Orange peel texture has a lightly bumpy surface resembling the skin of an orange, while knockdown (sometimes called knockout) looks like a stucco finish with flattened high spots. In contrast, popcorn texture has fallen out of fashion, partly due to its past association with asbestos and a shift toward more restrained interior design styles.

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.
