"Gary contacted me within an hour of placing a request for a quote. He quickly gave a fairly priced quote and explained what the quote covered. The statement of work was clear and included everything we talked about. The floors he put in were beautifully done. While installing the floor he promptly gave status updates with pictures and calling. He built outside front stairs that were sound and perfectly match the house, he even painted the door. The power washing cleaned the house well and quickly. All in all GS Construction does exemplary work and you can see the pride in his work. It is difficult to find a contractor who can give you a better value for your money. I definitely recommend GS Construction for your repair and building needs."

"Terry and Nola were great to work with. They were honest, professional, reliable, and we would definitely use their service again. They made some extensive drywall repairs for us that others would not tackle and repainted our entire house. We could not be happier with the end result and we are so glad Terry replied to our ad. If you are in need of honest, hard working people to work for you, Scott Property Service is the company you want on your job."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You should do a little bit of sanding between adding coats of mud. Knock down any ridges or significantly imperfect areas through sanding, which should help you apply the next coat of mud smoothly. If your first coat of mud is pretty smooth after it dries, a quick sanding is all you’ll need. Don’t forget to wipe away any dust after each sanding process.

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. 

In some minor cases, you can DIY drywall repair with minimal time and money spent. This method is best when you have a hole made by a singular problem, such as accidental furniture moving, and not a continuous problem, like a rodent infestation. 

Knowing what product to use is crucial. For example, small holes only need spackle, whereas large holes might need a new piece of drywall. You can flex your DIY abilities on this project, but if you’d like a second opinion or have a more significant problem, it’s best to call in a drywall repair pro.

While every home has its own unique needs, ceiling drywall installation typically follows a staggered or stepped pattern to enhance structural integrity and reduce the visibility of seams. Starting from one corner, sheets are placed perpendicular to the ceiling joists, with the ends of adjacent sheets meeting along the center of the joist. The next row begins with a half sheet, ensuring joints don't align vertically. This alternating pattern, combined with proper taping and mudding, creates a seamless appearance and strengthens the ceiling structure, minimizing the risk of cracks over time.

The cost to skim coat drywall is $1.15 to $1.35 per square foot. Most of the cost is labor, for the necessary skills to apply the skim coat with precision using high-quality tools. This is a job better left to the professionals for the best outcomes.
