"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.

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

Plaster is denser, harder, and more porous than drywall, so it absorbs moisture differently. This means you’ll often need more prep work, such as thorough sanding, patching, and priming with a high-quality bonding primer. Additionally, you may need more coats of paint to achieve even coverage. While the process takes more time, it helps ensure a durable and professional-looking result.

Yes, even if you’re being careful, removing tile can damage your drywall to some degree. However, you can minimize the damage done to it by eliminating a majority of the grout and taking your time prying each tile off. Also, it's worth noting that you might have more drywall damages to deal with if your tile is set into the mortar.

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.

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.

Plaster is a pretty tough surface, but it can still sustain damage from things like bumping against it, water issues, dampness, extreme humidity changes, and plain old age. Most plaster walls last hundreds of years and will only be taken down to the base layer when major repairs are required. Being cautious around the wall, not placing furniture against it, and ensuring stable humidity are all great ways to reduce possible damage.
