"I hired SmoothCoat Painting to repaint/refinish my kitchen cupboards, as well as repaint my kitchen. In addition I had Curtis add a backsplash above my countertops. When he was finished my kitchen looked brand new, up to date and very large. It added such beauty, not only the paint job but the professional touches he recommended. He recommended adding knobs and handles to the cupboards, which added much needed definition and character! The backsplash that was added was a last minute idea that he took care of beautifully. My intention was to just get the kitchen done, but I was so excited by the way it turned out that I rehired Curtis to paint my bathroom as well as do several drywall repairs that were needed as a result of an unfortunate experience with a different previous company. I was very pleased with Curtisâ s drywall work (and clean up). He actually and a true surprise to me was the first one that was able to fix and repair a damaged ceiling that was improperly drywalled years prior. It turned out wonderful! You canâ t even tell that the ceiling drywall wasnâ t done wrong in the first place. He did an amazing job! I will definitely call SmoothCoat Painting again for any future projects that I may have."

Professional, honest, dependable, friendly and really care to get the job right. I've been thrilled with every job they've done for me and have no hesitations to recommend them to anyone. I look forward to having Glenn over to guide me through the next project."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The two most common drywall thicknesses for ceilings are 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch. For most standard residential applications, 1/2-inch drywall is sufficient and widely used. It provides adequate support and is lighter and easier to handle during installation compared to thicker sheets. However, 5/8-inch drywall is often used for specific cases where additional benefits are needed. It is heavier but provides superior sound dampening and fire resistance. You should consider using 5/8-inch drywall for ceilings in commercial buildings, between a garage and a living space, or above a finished basement to meet building codes or for enhanced soundproofing.

The cost to skim coat drywall is $1.15 to $1.35 per square foot. Most of the cost is labor, for the necessary skills to apply the skim coat with precision using high-quality tools. This is a job better left to the professionals for the best outcomes.

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.

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.

Plaster itself has a higher R-value than drywall. However, there are other considerations surrounding plaster and insulation. As a general rule, it's easier to obtain consistency in insulating value and quality when working with drywall rather than plaster. Plaster walls often don't contain any insulation behind the wall covering by design, and careful evaluation is necessary when choosing to add it.
