"I would highly recommend Mil's Painting and Construction. They were very professional and efficient both in communication and execution of the dry wall repair project in my home. I had areas of dry wall (in 2 separate rooms, each with different paint colors) cut out due to water damage/mold and replaced. They showed up on time, were flexible with my schedule and respectful of my home. The walls look beautiful again, good as new and the pricing was not only fair but less than I expected to pay/what other companies quoted. Definitely hire him!"

"Sam the Man did several remodels in my home. I had 2 bathrooms, a full kitchen ( with a wall that was removed) and the basement. Every room was brought down to the studs. Sam is very neat, clean and knew exactly what look I was trying to achieve. He even helped me pick out the kitchen cabinets. Sam goes above and beyond my expectations. 5 stars is just not enough."

"Professionally replaced wood fascia and covered with white siding in Livingston NJ. Excellent workmanship. Carefully removed and reattached gutter and Verizon cable. Professional and courteous owner and team. Pleasant customer service; call back immediately; owner and workers were pleasant; fair and quick estimate; showed up on time; beautiful workmanship; cleaned up. Extremely honest Owner corrected me when I almost overpaid him. Highly recommend team and I will definitely use again, because I can trust them and count on them.

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Damp plaster does dry out, although the drying time depends on several factors, including the type of plaster, the surrounding temperature, moisture content, and the extent of the dampness. Sometimes, it can take weeks or months for wall plaster to dry naturally.

The age of your home can clue you in to whether you have plaster or drywall ceilings. Homes built after the ‘70s are more likely to have drywall ceilings and walls, while older homes have plaster. You can also do the pushpin test: A pushpin will go into drywall, whereas it’s much harder to push one into a plaster wall. If you’re still unsure, ask a drywall professional to let you know which type of ceilings and walls you have.

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

Whether you can reuse a drywall anchor depends on its type, material, and how it is removed. Plastic anchors, such as expansion or self-drilling types, are generally considered single-use because they are designed to expand and are likely to break or become deformed upon removal. Metal anchors, like toggle bolts, are more durable and can often be reused if they are not damaged during extraction. However, with toggle bolts, the toggle mechanism can fall inside the wall when the bolt is removed, making it difficult to retrieve. If an anchor is damaged or must be cut for removal, it cannot be reused regardless of its material.

The amount of drywall you need for a 1,000-square-foot basement depends on the ceiling height, angles, number of doors and windows, and more. To find the wall square footage, multiply the width and height of each wall, minus any gaps from windows or doors, and add the totals together. You’ll also need enough drywood nails or screws to install the drywall correctly.
