"I am blown away by the beautiful job Petar did - he and his assistant Bill removed a large area of plaster from the ceiling and replaced it with drywall, plastered all the multiple cracks and broken plaster on the walls, and sanded everything on the first day. Although we had not arranged for it, Petar insisted on priming and then painting the whole stairwell on day 2; he insisted he would not take any extra money for the extra work he performed........... but I could not agree to that so I told him he could consider the extra payment a Christmas gift!"

"Roger was great! He did some drywall ceiling repair from a roof leak. He kept in touch while awaiting for payment from the roofing company. He arrived when he said he would. Meticulous workmanship and very personable. I will call on Roger next time I need a project completed."

"I had the absolute best experience choosing JRC Improvement for a complete living room ceiling takedown and install. Any drywall work is always messy, however, Jason sealed off my living room so well, it truly contained the expected dust. Jason was prompt, professional and knowledgeable. After completing the entire ceiling, he primed, and painted beautifully. The craftsmanship and attention to detail he used, led to the entire project exceeding expectations. My ceiling is flawless, and he also installed a brand new fan. Extremely easy to work with, Jason, restored my faith in contractors. I would without hesitation, recommend Jason, and JRC Improvement for any home project!"

"David is a true professional. He has installed our sliding patio door, carpets pulled out and laminate floors installed throughout our house and bedroom, kitchenette and cabinets installed downstairs, any many smaller things I asked him to do along the way including fence gate repaired, closet rack repaired, window replaced, and laundry faucet replaced just to name a few. We will definitely call him to update the master bathroom next year. Excellent work and very accommodating!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Drying alone can take 1 to 4 hours to dry to the touch per plaster layer, but some types of plaster take several hours longer to dry. However, this doesn’t mean the job is done because plaster doesn’t fully harden until it cures, which can take a few days to a couple of weeks. It may take even longer if you’re building a new, pretty thick plaster wall. Allow the plaster to cure before painting it.

Yes, professionals often repair minor wall openings made for insulation injection to restore the surface.

Drywall can get wet and dry out without sustaining permanent damage, but only if the water damage is minor. If you have a small leak and are quick to correct the issue and set up blower fans and dehumidifiers, your drywall should dry out. If the leak is persistent, the drywall becomes totally waterlogged, or mold begins forming on the drywall, you should remove and replace it.

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

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.
