"Our basement had concrete floors, bare ceiling beams, walls with some insulation covered with plastic, and a few spindly columns.  It also contained the furnace, water heater, and so forth.   Opposite there was a sliding patio door.  VAP contracting worked with us to develop the concept of the space; we did not use an architect.  They also were familiar with building code, and worked successfully with our local inspector and the inspection process from start to finish.  As the project began, further insulation was added, then drywall.  The drywall made a separate "back" room for the furnace area, which was left unfinished, but with a finished door large enough to accommodate installation of a new oil storage tank or anything else that might need doing in the future.  VAP had the idea of making a hallway in one area giving access to a tiny sauna which the previous owner had built in the otherwise unfinished basement.  The partial hallway added to the architectural interest of the space, again making it less like a casually finished basement.  The ceiling was installed with a substantial number of down lights on a rheostat, and two electric heating elements were installed along the floor on opposite sides of the room.  The spindly columns were faced with drywall and trim at the bottom, matching the trim around the base of the floors finished with Pergola composite flooring.  Access to the basement was with wood steps in good condition, and we continued the look of that wood with flooring of similar wood appearance.  For whatever reason, the unfinished basement had concrete ledges around most of the room, and once the drywall was installed we placed wood to run along the top of those ledges that matched the stairs and flooring.  The color scheme echoed the upstairs, basically off-white with a few accent areas.  The staircase was repainted the same off-white.  And so now, when walking down the stairway, it becomes a kind of entrance to the finished room.  I used to joke that contractors had their own clocks and schedules in a parallel universe separate and apart from mine. Not the case with VAP.  When we worked out a schedule, they stuck to it in every phase.  Further, the quality of the work was perfect--which gives a great sense of joy when using the room. The overall budget was less than we originally anticipated, and so the price was fair--and, no cost overruns.   For the electrical work, I mentioned to VAP that I had been using an electrician for some years.  VAP said they could do the electrical work or could work with our electrician.  They did work with our electrician, very cooperatively.  Finally, I should note that I had used VAP for some previous, less complex projects, such as exterior house painting and wood floor refinishing.  Because that work was executed so well, on time, and within budget, we wanted to use them for the more complex basement project.  We are glad that we did!

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Which style of corner bead you choose—whether metal or paper-faced—depends on your preference and if you’re comfortable using metal-cutting tools and a hammer. Metal bead offers superior strength and durability but its installation is slightly more involved. We’d say for most cases, it’s better to use metal bead but if you’re not comfortable working with metal, paper-faced bead will work just fine. 

Wall anchors are suitable for drywall and plaster walls, which are common in most homes. However, different wall materials may require specialized anchors. For concrete or masonry walls, you'd typically use concrete anchors. When dealing with other wall types, such as brick or tile, specific anchors designed for those materials may be necessary. Always consult with a hardware specialist or check the manufacturer's recommendations to ensure you select the appropriate anchors for your specific wall type.

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.

Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.

While not always necessary, you can glue a drywall ceiling in addition to using screws or nails. Drywall is typically secured to ceiling joists with fasteners, which is often sufficient. However, adding construction adhesive can offer benefits like preventing sagging, bridging gaps, and reducing air leaks for better energy efficiency. It may also be used for specific acoustic or insulation needs. On the other hand, many professionals advise against it because properly placed screws make the drywall structural, glue doesn't add strength, and it makes future repairs or replacements significantly more difficult. Ultimately, it's best to follow local building codes and project-specific requirements to decide if adhesive is right for your ceiling.
