"Marty and his team did a fantastic job with installing drywall in our finished basement. Great communication, always on time, and the drywall/mudding work quality is excellent. I would recommend Marty to anyone looking to get a big drywall project done in their home."

"Mike helped me with some flooring for me and added baseboards and transitions for a floor I laid but couldn't figure out how to completely finish. He then advised me how to fix a bedframe that had broken. He showed up when he said he would, and when the job took longer than expected, he stuck around later to finish. He was an absolute pleasure to work with! I would absolutely hire him again."

"I hired A2Z for a bathroom remodeling job. He had to take floors out repair damage install floors put in tile. He took out shower and wall dividing shower and whirlpool. He also replaced floor in toilet area. He did all this at budget and did an outstanding job. Now this would be enough for a 5 star he went a step or two further. When I called him to look at job I had another job done a day before my water heater broke and was replaced by someone else. I noticed a gas leak and a water leak the guy that replaced heater couldn't repair his mess up until a day or so. I called Joe and he repaired."

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.

Yes, as drywall mud is going to have some uneven spots and bumps after application. Such imperfections are going to be visible after everything dries and even after you paint the wall, so you want to remove them. Learning how to sand drywall, taking your time, and following drywall sanding tips can help you have the best results.

The best way to make long, straight cuts is to use a utility knife and a T-square to score the sheet, snap along the score, and then finish the cut by cutting through the paper on the opposite side with the utility knife. If you’re making small cuts, curved cuts, or cutouts for electrical boxes or light fixtures, you can use a manual jab saw to keep costs down, but an electric spiral saw or oscillating multi-tool will get the cleanest, fastest cuts possible.

While certain types of textured walls can seem dated (looking at you, popcorn), textured walls are a common sight in both older and more modern homes. The main reason textured walls may be here to stay is that they are an excellent way to hide minor imperfections on a wall and give it a finished appearance. Some homeowners think a coat of paint on drywall is a bit industrial-looking. However, that look works perfectly in modern home design. 

The best tool for cutting a hole in drywall is a drywall saw. Its serrated blade and ergonomic design make it efficient for both straight cuts and more intricate shapes, ensuring clean and precise results in various drywall cutting applications.
