"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!"
"They patched a hole in the drywall due to water damage and replaced the loose fill insulation. The crew was very professional and very careful around our furniture. They matched the drywall texture to the rest of the room perfectly. They even moved some of our furniture back in place that they hadn’t originally moved. The whole job was completed in two days. We’re very happy with H&S Painting!"

"I contacted Greg A. Bailor Drywall & Painting in September 2014 for interior texture and paint for a residential property built in 1911. When I called I was able to speak directly to the owner, Greg Bailor. I explained that I was managing the renovation of the residence from Virginia, 2500 miles away. We discussed my needs at length and he scheduled a date the following week for a complete walkthrough of the house including the basement. He emailed a detailed estimate two days later. That I was not able to be on site to see the progress would be a challenge, but he said it would be no problem and we both agreed good communication would be the key. His team started work three days later. Over the next two weeks Greg and I were in contact almost everyday. He was great about keeping me updated on the progress of his team. He and I also had many consults about the color scheme and texture for the interior of the house. He was very patient and walked me through many of his suggestions. In this case, I really left the creative eye to the professional and trusted his experience to deliver a beautiful result. He did not disappoint. I was able to make a trip to Reno a few weeks later to see the work. As I walked through the front door I couldn?t believe the stunning transformation throughout the whole house. He really made it new again. In February 2015 I contact Greg Bailor again to complete the final touch ups after the installation of new doors, a new kitchen and a new bath. He began work two weeks later and had the project finished in two days. Touch ups took a bit longer because the baseboards needed to be primed and repainted due to overspray of tung oil application by the hardwood floor refinishers. Greg Bailor and his team were great to work with and extremely accommodating. Their professionalism and attention to detail are second to none. I would hire Greg A. Bailor Drywall & Painting again and highly recommend them for any painting needs. They do beautiful work at a fair price. "

White walls are the toughest color to keep clean and maintain, as they’re extremely unforgiving when it comes to dirt, splatters, dust, and smudges. Still, many people look past their high-maintenance requirements because they lighten and modernize a space beautifully. If you’re opting for white walls, it’s especially important to keep up with regular cleanings, so they stay pristine.
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.
This depends on how much plaster is applied and in how many layers, but a decent estimate is around 150 square feet. If you are applying only two coats on a small wall, there is a chance you may only need one or two gallons for the entire project. If you are plastering a large living room wall with high ceilings, using one of the more involved techniques–like Scagliola–that requires several coats, expect the project materials costs to add up quickly.
Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.
If your home’s foundation shifts slightly over time, any seams in the drywall represent the weakest point in the wall, leading to cracks. If your home has significant changes in temperature and humidity, this can cause the drywall to swell and contract slightly, causing a crack at the weak point of the seam. If your drywall installer did a poor job securing the panels to the wall studs, this could cause a weak layout and cracks in the seams.
