Customers say: True professional

"I had a hole in my ceiling drywall that needed to be patched and painted. Edwin did a tremendous job and even pointed out where the ceiling drywall hadn’t been secured correctly and fixed that too. I can’t speak highly enough about his professionalism and quality of service. We will definitely be hiring him for work in the future."

"We had two rooms painted . The two painters were punctual . They did a great job in the two rooms. They cleaned up as they worked. When they ended day one everything was stored out of sight and the rooms were clean, so it was very easy to stay in the house while they were painting."

"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. It was a difficult job due to power lines, and wood bees flying in their face. Bob S. Livingston N.J."

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Knowing what causes drywall damage can help stop it before it starts. Here are some of the most common causes of drywall damage: 

  • Water damage from roof leaks or leaky pipes. 

  • Small holes caused by doorknobs, minor accidents, and rodent infestations. 

  • Wall dents stemming from moving furniture and minor accidents. 

  • Wall cracks that form from a settling foundation or seismic activity. 

  • Nail pops from nails and screws in the walls. 

  • Large holes that are caused by accidents with heavy objects, children and pets, or sporting equipment.

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.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

A nail in drywall cannot hold very much—usually only a few pounds. A nail in a stud can add support and hold around 20 pounds. If you are trying to hang something heavier, get some help from drywall anchors—toggle bolts are very strong and able to withstand more weight.
