"We did a remodel on both of our bathrooms. One was a removal of an outside door and installing a glass block window. The other was removing a shower/bathtub and a small window. Installing a large glass block window and replacing sheetrock where needed. The contractor said he could not match the existing texture. Alan came by and gave us a reasonable bid and great timeframe. He completed the job and we are very happy with the finish. We have another project coming up and will definitely call Alan."

"Hector Ortega and his associates did an outstanding installation of new sheetrock and then taped and filled all seams and blemishes to make a final wall rooms ready to be painted rooms. Hector and his father were a team of experienced drywall specialists and it showed in our final finished rooms. They were punctual, hard-working and made efficient use of their time over the four days of processing my small drywall job. WE as homeowners couldn't be more pleased and we are very happy with the end result of their carefull attention to detail and courteous workmanship. As in all projects which have different stages of construction, we as homeowners were fortunate to encounter Hector Ortega , and he was concerned about his tasks in getting the important drywall completed in a timely manner for us to prepare for the next sequence of construction installation with wall painting, flooring and new cabinets. If anyone performing home improvement or new home construction wants a qualified and consciencious drywall pro, contact this business and be made happy. Our general contractor was needing to find a more than satisfactory drywall installer, and we discovered Mr. Ortega. We as homeowner,s have been feeling fortunate that there are still some honest contractors that do what they say they can do for a reasonable price and exhibit quality workmanship with the right attitude of concern about the finished project. Therefore, my contractor Brent Wright Home Builders, and Hector Ortega made a great team in completing this phase of our small home improvement project. We believe strongly in good communication of when workers will be showing up to perform their tasks. Both have been good about keeping us informed of daily and weekly work activities. For those persons doing home improvements in Central Oregon, you do well to consider these two outstanding construction professionals. This is our fourth home improvement project in 4 years and we were glad that we partnered with both of these contractors. We strongly recommend Hector Ortega as you go-to drywall installation guy and know that he will live up to your project expectations. I intend to introduce him at our local Jefferson County/Madras Chamber of Commerce meeting and speak well of him, so that others can make the right investment with Mr. Ortega and his skills set. Thank you for the opportunity to express my gratitude for a job well done. by two local contractors who exhibited what I call the "Give a Damn" attitude."

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Plastering lasts for around 15 to 20 years without needing repairs or maintenance in most cases, and with proper upkeep, plastering can last a lifetime—sometimes more than 100 years. Plaster repair costs between $1 and $3 per square foot, and you may need these services once every 15 to 20 years or so unless you have a harsh climate where humidity changes are a constant issue. You can also opt to skim-coat plaster for between $0.90 and $1.30 per square foot, which may serve you better in the long run.

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.

There are some instances when you can use extra drywall in your garden. Ideally, unused scraps of new drywall are best for amending soil without the concern of additional chemicals or mold. However, drywall with paint, mold, or potential asbestos requires specialized disposal by a professional and should be kept out of your garden.

Both plaster and drywall are durable wall finishes, but they differ significantly in installation, cost, performance, and aesthetics.

Installation & Cost: Drywall installation is faster and more affordable, typically costing $1.50 to $3 per square foot. It uses premade sheets, making it a more accessible DIY project. Plastering is a labor-intensive craft that requires specialized skills, pushing costs to $2 to $10 per square foot. It involves applying a wet paste over a lath framework.

Durability & Performance: Plaster is generally more durable, longer-lasting, and provides superior soundproofing. It is also a better insulator, which can help reduce energy costs. Drywall is easier to remove for future renovations.

Aesthetics: Drywall provides a smooth, uniform surface ready for paint or texture. Plaster offers a high-end, naturally textured look that can hide imperfections and is often preferred for achieving a classic or historic aesthetic.

Which is better? The choice depends on your priorities. Drywall is ideal for those prioritizing a lower upfront cost, faster installation, and DIY potential. Plaster is the better option for a higher-end project where durability, soundproofing, and a unique, premium finish are more important than the initial cost.
