"Andy does it all. He painted every square foot of our home, including trim and doors. Repaired trim and drywall. Installed appliances. Hung fans and light fixtures. And more! The quality of work is outstanding and his attention to detail is exceptional. We are asking Andy to work on exterior matters this Spring and Summer. Andy cleans up at the end of each day. He is meticulous and being very picky homeowners, we appreciate the quality of his work."

Customers say: True professional

"Our painting work looks great!! Used this company to paint a large section of our home that includes living room, hallway, 2 story foyer, and upstairs hallway. Everyone is very personable and easy to work with! Chris always responds to texts/calls within minutes! Phil did an excellent job with the largest portion of the painting with tons of attention to detail! He even offered to remove the ugly surround sound speakers installed by the previous homeowner and did the drywall repair. There is NO paint anywhere it shouldn t be. We have 2 young kids and Phil and Jessica were beyond friendly and courteous to them also. Very thoughtful and talented people! Can t beat the price either!! We received multiple estimates for the same job and these guys deliver for a significantly better deal and get it done quickly! Before we met them, we were hesitant to hire because they don t have as many reviews on here as other companies and contractors... but they re definitely great! We ve rehired them now to put up and stain a fence for us in fact. Thanks PHIL, Chris, Jessica, and Stacey!"

"Freedom Contracting did a fantastic job on our bathroom remodel! We are so happy with how it looks. It needed remodeling so bad. Brandon and his crew consulted with us every step of the way. Made suggestions along the way that really made the difference. They are very knowledgeable and when they start a job they stay on it till completion. Dependable and trustworthy. We will be recommending them to everyone we know. Ray & Cathi Fiorentino"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The age of your home can clue you in to whether you have plaster or drywall ceilings. Homes built after the ‘70s are more likely to have drywall ceilings and walls, while older homes have plaster. You can also do the pushpin test: A pushpin will go into drywall, whereas it’s much harder to push one into a plaster wall. If you’re still unsure, ask a drywall professional to let you know which type of ceilings and walls you have.

While every home has its own unique needs, ceiling drywall installation typically follows a staggered or stepped pattern to enhance structural integrity and reduce the visibility of seams. Starting from one corner, sheets are placed perpendicular to the ceiling joists, with the ends of adjacent sheets meeting along the center of the joist. The next row begins with a half sheet, ensuring joints don't align vertically. This alternating pattern, combined with proper taping and mudding, creates a seamless appearance and strengthens the ceiling structure, minimizing the risk of cracks over time.

The short answer is yes, a sagging plaster ceiling is dangerous. Sagging plaster on a wall is something you should fix immediately, but it isn’t a major concern. If the same type of sagging occurs on a ceiling, however, you could be in danger of your ceiling falling in large chunks. When plaster sags, it loses its strength and ability to hold itself up. The bonds that hold it together are strong, though, so if a sagging area falls, it will take large pieces down with it.

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.

The amount of drywall you need for a 1,000-square-foot basement depends on the ceiling height, angles, number of doors and windows, and more. To find the wall square footage, multiply the width and height of each wall, minus any gaps from windows or doors, and add the totals together. You’ll also need enough drywood nails or screws to install the drywall correctly.
