"I couldn?t recommend Kyle enough to anyone who needs a contractor. Not only did he help me? to save money before I even signed with him. He?s just the type of person you?d actually want in your home, the honest kind. Heck I?d leave my dog with him and wouldn?t worry. Seriously though, every step of the way he was there to help and at what I felt was a fair price in today?s world. About my project. I needed a bathroom redone, and some drywall work. Kyle gave me the options and worked with me guided me along the way so I made the best decisions for myself. I chose my own materials, paint color. Did my own painting and the easy stuff. He gave such great input to help me do that. The bathroom turned out amazing. The floors, dry wall, vanity, mirror, toilet reset, new trim, are all new. The tub was not replaced. Literally blown away at the dry wall work and texturing? magical blending ability and he hand shaped a corner that required custom work. Came out perfect 10/10 will hire again"

"I talked to many people to get quotes and to inquire about the service of getting my house painted. It was hard to find somebody that I felt I could trust. When I found D&N I knew right away that I could trust them. The job got done quickly and in the estimated time. Communication was clear and effective. I would 100% recommend them to paint your house!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

Drywall can be installed directly on ceiling joists. In fact, this method is common in many construction projects. Drywall sheets are attached to the joists using screws, ensuring a secure and stable installation. Before attaching the drywall, it's important to mark the joist locations on the ceiling, allowing for accurate screw placement. Proper spacing between screws and careful taping and mudding of joints are crucial to creating a smooth and flawless ceiling surface. If the joists are in good condition and level, installing drywall directly on them is a practical and efficient approach.

In most cases, no, you won’t need a permit to replace drywall. If you’re changing the floorplan of your home by adding or removing walls during the drywall project, then you might need a permit, but replacement or repairs usually doesn’t require a permit. Your drywall professional should be able to confirm whether or not a permit is required for your project. If it is, it’s likely to add between $50 and $150 to your total cost. Keep in mind that you will need permits if you plan to install new electrical wiring or plumbing lines behind your new drywall.

The cost to texture drywall depends on whether you want to do the work yourself or hire a professional. The cost of the drywall mud is far lower than labor costs for applying it. The labor cost to spray drywall compound onto a wall is between $0.80 and $1.50 per square foot, while you’ll pay between $1.50 and $2 per square foot for the labor to apply the texture by hand.

If you plan on heating your garage, you must install a vapor barrier when drywalling the garage. A vapor barrier protects your garage from frost and mold that can occur through condensation. If your garage is unheated, you don't need to install a vapor barrier. The only exception is if you regularly crank the heat in your car before getting in it. In this case, you may still want to install a vapor barrier, as your car can heat your garage.
