"Ty and his team were very friendly and professional! They were available quickly and followed through on every step of the process from coming out for a quote to finishing within the timeframe they promised. I would recommend precision drywall to anyone looking for quality work from a quality business! We already have them lined up for another project!"

"Francisco & I negotiated the correct solution to repairing my dinning room wall, and we decided skimming the wall with a plaster slurry. It looks great, and Francisco was very diligent with the work! He completed it over several days and It looks fantastic! Thank You!"

"Mike and his crew did excellent work, they installed drywall, taped, mudded, primed, and painted a very spacious entryway, with high, vaulted ceilings, and oversized stairs leading down one side, and up the other. They installed new drywall over the walls, on the ceiling, and wrapped drywall around every exposed beam and column. The paint job afterward came out awesome, like a new house. We are extremely pleased with their work, and would recommend them to anyone, home or business, that needs drywall work, or painting. They also took down and rehung our ceiling fan and installed our new chandelier in the vaulted ceiling. This was a very challenging project, and they went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with the job. I'm sure we will find more work for them to do elsewhere in the house in the future as well."

"We are rehabbing an old home. Shane (Dekarated) has been with us through all phases! Pics include our renovated bathroom- gutted, all new tile, drywall and installation of raw edge wood that we wanted to incorporate. Our renovated living/dining room- we raised all the doorways and Shane created a custom archway and built ins. Our entryway tile floor. He is our go-to guy!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Walls should be as smooth as possible before applying peel-and-stick wallpaper. Although you technically can apply wallpaper on textured walls, the peel-and-stick variety won’t last long without a clean, smooth surface for the adhesive to stick to. If you have textured walls, consult a pro about removing the textured finish before moving forward with wallpaper.

Beadboard is a decorative element and lacks the structural integrity of drywall. It cannot hold much weight and is not meant to be used as an insulator or moisture barrier, like drywall is. In almost all cases, beadboard is placed over an existing wall surface which, in modern days, is usually drywall, but decades ago could have been wood paneling.

Plaster ceilings can sag for several reasons. In some cases, the plaster and other building materials shift and come apart over time, which is why you’ll commonly find drooping plaster ceilings in older homes. Improper installation, foot traffic, and water damage—often from a leaky roof or a broken pipe—can also cause plaster ceilings to sag.

There shouldn’t be any gaps between your walls and ceiling. These can be fixed with joint compound but that is only a fix, and it’s much better if your drywall fits correctly in the first place. Sometimes gaps can appear if your foundation shifts significantly but if this is the case, you have a much bigger problem than patching drywall.

While a normal moisture level for drywall is between 5% and 12%, replacement is recommended if you get consistent readings above 17%. At this level, the drywall is likely too compromised by extensive moisture damage to be considered safe. You can replace either the entire sheet or just the affected section. If you are unsure after a visual inspection, it is best to have a contractor or water restoration provider use a professional moisture meter to get an accurate reading.
