"Garret and his crew do great work. Very courteous and conscientious. Garret is a "jack of all trades". He did drywall, drywall repair, baseboard, door trim, painting, vanity install to include marble countertop, hung the bathroom mirrors and other items. He finished work ahead of schedule and performed a lot of out of scope at a reasonable price. He has no problem working late if needed to get the job done. Keeps work area clean. Highly recommended."

"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!"

"Walter installed stamped, metal panels on my kitchen ceiling. The installation method stated by the manufacturer (by nailing) proved not to be practical, so Walter found painted screws that matched the panel color for the install. Panel lines are not perfect, but overall I am pleased with the work that he did considering that this was his first time installing these metal panels. I would hire him again for any drywall work that I may have in the future."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can put drywall mud over paint to even out the surface or entirely resurface it. Sand the surface with 280-grit sandpaper, vacuum the debris and dust with a shop vac, and clean it with a slightly damp cloth. Allow the surface to dry. Apply drywall primer, especially if you’re skim-coating an entire wall. Apply the right type of drywall mud over the surface and smooth it with a trowel. Allow the layer to cure fully, then sand it before applying another layer or painting it.

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.

There are several benefits to wet-sanding drywall, but the main perk is that it produces far less dust than dry-sanding. As a result, wet-sanding poses fewer health risks and makes less of a mess in your home. Plus, damp sponges are less abrasive than sandpaper, so there’s a smaller chance of scratching or damaging the drywall paper. Wet-sanding also creates a smoother finish than dry-sanding.

To maintain plaster walls, inspect them regularly for cracks and seal them early. Clean the walls by dusting regularly or using a gentle, damp cloth. It's also important to avoid moisture exposure. Repainting as needed will help maintain the wall's appearance and longevity.

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.
