"I was in the middle of a master  bathroom renovation that I did not finish (for years!) along with a second bathroom bump-out into the first bathroom's master bedroom. Part of the master bathroom problems was a door I moved and poorly hung. Victor did a walk through stated he needed to buy supplies and that they would be in addition to the $Deal. He went, he came back with a sheet of drywall, corner beading and a sack of mud and handed me the receipt. Victor swung into action REHUNG the master bathroom door, closed up SIX wall openings with drywall, installed the corner beading and did the rough mud work on the walls. His work is AMAZING. I knew when I bought the $Deal that there was no way the he could complete all the wall work in one day...but he came close. We negotiated the price to finish the job and again he was reasonable and I reimbursed him for the supplies he bought. He also gave me  an estimate on repairing the ceiling in the master bedroom. I wish I had known about Victor sooner. He lives in Henderson and he will be back working on my home many, many times.

"This is a very professional company. Victor was prompt and fair. He helped me choose the best colors for the job. Ivoneth in the office was very helpful answering all my emails. When I accidentally spilled leftover paint in the back yard, Victor power washed the cool decking and concrete at no extra charge. I recommend Diesel Painting & Drywall without hesitation."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. 

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

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.

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.

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.
