Customers say: Quality work

"We hired Jeff to replace drywall that was removed due to recent water damage as well as a portion of ceiling that had old water damage. He did a fabulous job. The new portion of the walls now look seamless with the older portions. When doing the ceiling, he discovered a bit of a mess there, but after he informed us about it and we approved the extra cost, he was able to reinforce an area and properly brace that section before replacing the drywall, painting and texturing the ceiling to match the rest of it. He also removed two old room intercoms, replaced drywall, and painted those areas, too. Jeff did a lot of work and, even with the unforseen repair work, he was able to finish on schedule, staying a bit later a couple of the days. All in all, Jeff was professional, nice, thorough, and a pleasure in all of our conversations. Our laundry room (and parts of other rooms) is now renewed and looks amazing. We greatly appreciate all of his hard work and will certainly be contacting him again for future projects. Thanks Jeff!"

"Meyer Drywall, is a two man team, Eric and Tyler. They are skilled at their trade of drywall install and finishing. They have the trade equipment and experience to effectively get your job done. My project consisted of replacing drywall in two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Eric and Tyler effectively removed and disposed of the old drywall. They then hung the new drywall sheeting. The finishing process was performed very efficiently to achieve the desired results. My project was completed in six working days. The job included primer painting of all new product and complete work area cleanup. The finished results are outstanding. I recommend Meyer Drywall for your next drywall project. Happy home improvement!"

"I can't recommend Mr. Malone highly enough! He's very professional, is very knowledgeable and does great work. I had recurring drywall issues including large wall cracks from settling and drywall tape lifting in a 35-year old home. Both painters and handymen had done quick repairs with spackling and tape, but it never worked for long. Mr. Malone actually understood what was causing the problems and what was needed to prevent or minimize the chances of issues recurring. He explained all of the steps of my project well and worked very efficiently. I'm extremely satisfied with his work. Very highly recommended!"

"Manny was easy and great to work with on my project which included drywalling two complete bedrooms, fixing and refinishing a bathroom ceiling, and an outlet hole in the wall of a bedroom. The finishing work was excellent. I was impressed with his fairness…..When the job was complete he deducted some of the cost off the original estimate and returned the excess materials for us. He is easy to work with and for scheduling. I am going to hire him again for another project."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Drywall mudding can be done in one day if the project is small and the desired effect isn’t too complex. If you need multiple layers of mud, one day may not be realistic. But a single room that requires little more than joint compound on the seams and screws can be done in a day or two.

It’s less costly to drywall a fireplace than shiplapping it since material costs are higher for shiplap. However, if you’re DIYing the project, shiplap is less expensive since you won’t have to pay for labor. With drywall, getting a smooth finish is difficult unless you’re a pro. Shiplap is ideal for an accent wall or unique space, such as around a fireplace, since it adds texture and gives off a cozy vibe.

A utility knife is sharp enough to score the drywall and it may work in a pinch for outlet box holes. However, one of the best tools for drywall when you need to make exact cuts for an outlet box quickly is a drywall saw. This handheld tool has a longer blade than a utility knife, so it penetrates the thickness of the drywall easily. The design of its handle and the teeth in its blade make it easier to control while cutting quicker than you can with a utility knife.

The person’s skill will affect how many drywall sheets they can hang in one day. Some people can hang 10 or more sheets in a day, while others may only hang six or seven sheets. It also depends on the framing complexity since custom cutting and fitting the drywall can prolong the process.

Yes, taping inside corners is a critical step in the drywall installation process.  Properly taping inside corners is essential for achieving a professional look, and an installation that resists cracking and maintains its integrity over time. Taping the corners involves the application of a joint compound along the seam where two drywall pieces meet. This process provides reinforcement, conceals the seam, and prevents future gaps or cracks from developing.
