"So quick! Thankful to work with Drywall Home Repairs - they helped us pick up where we left off in our basement DIY finishing project. They put up all of our drywall in an afternoon and made my worries of the project disappear. Professional, easy to work with and schedule."

"We had a moisture issue with our skylights in our vaulted ceiling.  After talking over several options, decided that a tear down and closed cell spray foam application was the most permanent solution to this problem.  We met with several companies about the job and ran into an issue getting a comfortable feeling with each contractor until we met Paul.  The job required a tear-down of the ceiling, the batt and cellulose insulation, spray foam application, some shims on the rafter for the new drywall to replace the thickness by some previous foam board, drywall, texture, and then multiple coats of paint and primer.  There were a lot of angles around the skylights as well to top it off.
When we met with Paul he went through the steps he would take to complete the job.  He talked a lot about the prep work and what that process entailed (an important step for us since we just repainted the walls, installed some bookcases, and put in new hardwood floors) and most importantly, instilled in us a sense of confidence that he could and would get the job done.  The job was not scheduled to start right away due to the cold weather so our confidence in Paul was demonstrated by his follow-up and follow-through when we were ready.  It was a good feeling for us, as in the past we've had contractors bail out after waiting a period of time and also change their quotes.  Paul was true to his word.
We are thankful for the diligent prep work.  The house was closed off in that section and it was like bomb had gone off inside of it.  The blown-in cellulose was everywhere and then when the drywall dust came, you had to wonder if the finished product would ever look like it used to!  The crew was very respectful and they really busted their backs getting the job done.  My wife felt very comfortable with them in the house with our two little kids and we even felt comfortable leaving the house to them while they worked.
When the process was finished, my wife remarked at how it looked as if nothing had ever happened!  We were very appreciative to Paul and his crew for the work that they did.  They showed great accountability and service and we got a good sense of their integrity.  We are very thankful to have found him and we will be using him for future projects.

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Plaster walls typically last between 30 and 70 years, but depending on the quality of the materials and the moisture levels in the building, they can last for over 100 years. With expert application and consistent maintenance, plaster can even last for centuries. To extend its lifespan, it is important to have the plaster professionally installed, address any water damage promptly, and repair small cracks as they appear. Regular inspections by a professional can help identify and address concerning cracks before they become significant issues.

Most repairs take 1-3 days, depending on drying times for joint compound and paint touch-ups.

You may need to replace drywall because of smoke damage. If the drywall is covered in soot, you may be able to clean it, but it will require a lot of time and effort. You could spend hours cleaning the drywall only to find there is more damage and it needs to be replaced anyway. It’s usually easier and safer to remove the smoke-damaged drywall and replace it.

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.

Mudding drywall is a DIY-friendly project, but patience and practice are required for perfection. If you’re working in a highly visible area and want the best possible finish, hiring a professional drywaller is worth the cost. Pros have the tools and know-how to ensure a smooth surface with fewer sanding sessions and less cleanup.
