"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!"

"Tamer is a very nice guy and did an amazing job helping us with drywall in our kitchen. Him and his associate showed up right on time & worked very well together. They even went the extra mile and smoothed over some rough patches of wall that were done by somebody else. Highly recommend & will absolutely be hiring him again in the future!"

Drywall questions, 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.

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.

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.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

This depends on how much plaster is applied and in how many layers, but a decent estimate is around 150 square feet. If you are applying only two coats on a small wall, there is a chance you may only need one or two gallons for the entire project. If you are plastering a large living room wall with high ceilings, using one of the more involved techniques–like Scagliola–that requires several coats, expect the project materials costs to add up quickly.
