"After speaking with several contractors we decided to have David Bochniak replace our old windows. He did an outstanding job with the window replacements. He was meticulous about the woodwork framing the windows, also. His craftsmanship is very impressive. He was timely and very neat (always cleaned up after a day's work). He was very easy to work with, more than kept his word (replaced a few pieces of woodwork from a former window replacement done by someone else), and did not skimp on any part of the job. We are thrilled with his work, price, and our new windows!!!"

"Wow what a great team of hard working guys ! They came by and did everything perfectly and very professionally. Didn't ask for a penny until all the work was done . Now days it's hard to trust people in this business because they take half of the money and take off without doing the job so it's great to finally find someone professional who does what they say. From drywall to the electrical everything was done professionally with skill. I will be calling them back for more home renovations for sure . Thank you Ryan for taking such good care of my home ."

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.

Regular inspections, repainting, and avoiding moisture exposure help maintain integrity.

Which style of corner bead you choose—whether metal or paper-faced—depends on your preference and if you’re comfortable using metal-cutting tools and a hammer. Metal bead offers superior strength and durability but its installation is slightly more involved. We’d say for most cases, it’s better to use metal bead but if you’re not comfortable working with metal, paper-faced bead will work just fine. 

New plaster must be fully dry and cured before painting. The drying time for plaster ranges from 1 to 4 hours, but the curing process can take more than five days, depending on various factors, including humidity levels, temperature, the amount of plaster used, and airflow in the area. You should always apply primer before painting plaster.

There are six levels of drywall finish, from 0 to 5, that refer to the amount of work performed during the finishing process.

Level 0: Drywall is hung with no finishing work.

Level 1: Tape is placed over the seams between drywall sheets.

Level 2: A thin layer of mud is applied over the tape and screw holes. This level is common for utility rooms or walls that will be covered.

Level 3: A full coat of mud covers the screw holes and tape, but the surface is not sanded. This is often used in garages.

Level 4: This is the most common finish for visible interior walls. It involves applying two coats of mud over seams and screw holes, with sanding between each coat, creating a smooth surface ready for flat paint.

Level 5: This is a high-end finish for luxury homes. It includes full taping, mudding, and sanding, plus a final skim coat over the entire surface before painting.
