"We had an excellent experience with Leo from A&W Drywall and highly recommend him! We we're contacted very quickly after posting for the project and had an estimate and schedule the same day. His work is meticulous and clean. Leo took great care to prevent any dust outside the work area. When he left, you couldn't tell he had been here!"

"Chris with Friesen Family Renovations, LLC was very professional and thorough in the work he has completed. He installed a new screen door, replaced my tub stem and faucet, repaired my subfloor in the kitchen and installed brand new LVP flooring to replace old and water damaged flooring. He also mounted a television for me, and did some drywall repairs as well. I would recommend this business to anyone looking for quality and dependable work!"

"I do not usually complete surveys or share my experiences, but in this instance I am compelled. Without really knowing where to start, I can say that I was very fortunate to have received the initial call from Franks. My project is an 110 year old building and nothing is straight or level. I was left high and dry without a drywaller and a time frame that would not allow a 4-6 wait period for another company to schedule me. It just so happened that Franks had just finished another project and had a window that they could fit me in. The same day (Sunday) I received John s call, he was there within hours to measure. The next morning they were hoisting drywall thru the upstairs window. John was on site the next day at 7AM and every day thereafter at that time until the job was done. He glued and screws, shims, takes his time and yet works efficiently. His helper has been with him for years and shows near equal ability for detail. They work well together and move along at a persistent pace...each day showing accomplishments. I don t think they stop much for breaks or lunch. The joke was that I was developing separation anxiety because I knew I was going to miss them both. If you allow it, they will leave you as friends. There is no doubt in my mind that the work was quality and the price VERY fair! Nor do I have any doubts that anyone else would experience the same...that is, if you are fortunate enough to receive their call. I move from project to project and hire company after company in all the trades. I do much of the work myself so I know what is involved and can identify hurried sloppy work when I see it. You will not see that with Franks. I am so happy to have met them and so thankful that this old building received their luv of what they do. 👍"

"I hired All-Dun to upgrade the drop ceiling lighting in my business. He installed 46 LED drop ceiling panel lights, he was able to delete 44 lights and I now have brighter lighting than I had with the plain LED tubes. Fair price for excellent work, I would rate 10 stars if I could!"

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

You can plaster over regular drywall, but it's essential to prepare the surface properly. Before plastering, the drywall should be clean, free of dust, and any loose or peeling paint should be removed. Applying a primer specifically designed for plastering can improve adhesion. Some professionals recommend applying a base coat of plaster or joint compound to create a better surface for the plaster to adhere to. Proper preparation ensures a smooth and durable plaster finish over regular drywall.

Plaster ceilings can sag for several reasons. In some cases, the plaster and other building materials shift and come apart over time, which is why you’ll commonly find drooping plaster ceilings in older homes. Improper installation, foot traffic, and water damage—often from a leaky roof or a broken pipe—can also cause plaster ceilings to sag.

The cost to install drywall is between $1.50 and $3 per square foot, while shiplap installation costs between $2 and $7 on average. In most applications, shiplap installations cost more than that of putting in drywall. However, several ways exist to reduce shiplap prices, especially for small locations or accent walls, which can keep the total cost of shiplap competitive with that of drywall.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Although they are used for similar tasks, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum and is primarily used for large-scale projects like taping and finishing seams on new drywall. Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it a thicker compound best suited for small wall repairs like filling nail holes or cracks, as it dries quickly and is easy to sand. For small repairs, either product can be suitable. However, you can use joint compound for small jobs in place of spackle, but you cannot use spackle for large-scale taping and mudding projects.
