"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!"

"Family owned business. Dave (father) and Kyle (son) were prompt, professional, and easy to work with. Working on a small bathroom remodel and they came thru with the drywall. Installed, taped, coated, finished, and sanded to perfection. Now I’m all set to prime and paint myself. Very kind people and great communication. Price was fair and very pleased with the entire process. Would hire again without thinking twice."

"We hired Brushstrokes by Kenn for drywall repairs and touch up painting. He was the only Drywall Repair Pro that would provide an estimate for touch-up painting vs complete wall and ceiling painting post drywall repair. He is a really nice guy, doing professional quality work, and doing exactly what we wanted done. He also has a friendly and personable manner that we all enjoyed... great communication skills."

"I had a great experience with Uncle D Painting. They pulled down paneling, prepared the walls nicely before painting, made repairs, and hung/painted drywall going down and into my basement. They showed up when they said they would and worked hard. I plan to use them again. And I don't feel as though they overcharged me for the work they did."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

There are six levels of drywall finish, from 0 to 5, that refer to the amount of work performed during the finishing process.

Level 0: Drywall is hung with no finishing work.

Level 1: Tape is placed over the seams between drywall sheets.

Level 2: A thin layer of mud is applied over the tape and screw holes. This level is common for utility rooms or walls that will be covered.

Level 3: A full coat of mud covers the screw holes and tape, but the surface is not sanded. This is often used in garages.

Level 4: This is the most common finish for visible interior walls. It involves applying two coats of mud over seams and screw holes, with sanding between each coat, creating a smooth surface ready for flat paint.

Level 5: This is a high-end finish for luxury homes. It includes full taping, mudding, and sanding, plus a final skim coat over the entire surface before painting.

It's generally recommended to hang drywall on the ceiling first before moving on to the walls. This sequence allows the ceiling sheets to provide support for the vertical wall sheets. By attaching the ceiling drywall initially, you establish a solid framework to align and attach the wall panels accurately. This method ensures a seamless and sturdy connection between the ceiling and walls, resulting in a more professional finish.

You do not need to drywall over most types of garage insulation. However, doing so can increase noise reduction, make the space more attractive, and keep children and pets from touching harmful fiberglass insulation. If you’re using cellulose or some other type of blown-in insulation (fiberglass and mineral wool are common), you will need drywall to contain the insulation material.

The tool you use to sand plaster will depend on the size of the project. If you’re just working on a small section of your wall to get rid of an uneven spot on the surface, hand-sanding might work. However, for larger projects, a drywall sander can make a huge difference when it comes to both time and elbow grease—and an orbital sander can help for detailed areas such as around ceiling fans.

Yes, as drywall mud is going to have some uneven spots and bumps after application. Such imperfections are going to be visible after everything dries and even after you paint the wall, so you want to remove them. Learning how to sand drywall, taking your time, and following drywall sanding tips can help you have the best results.
