"George was very friendly, and we had a good chat. He was very experienced. He not only installed the 2x2 foot drywall in the ceiling but also guided me through buying the right paint, whose colour matched very well with the surrounding ceiling. Furthermore, he painted the drywall area with the paint I bought, and everything looks great. The charge was very reasonable. Before him, I was told by another professional that the whole ceiling needed to be painted to match the color, and that would have cost me a lot more money."

"We hired Paul to do a kitchen remodel, which included removing 2 walls, converting from an electric to gas range, modifying windows, and adding a large island. The work was done well and we were impressed with his team’s attention to detail. Our new kitchen is beautiful!"

"Professionals thru and thru. I was most impressed on their review and recommendation of the best way to refinish my dining room table and my grandfather's dresser. At first I thought their prices seemed a little bit higher than I expected but after listening to their explanation why and seeing the outstanding attention to detail and high quality, I would have paid more. Finding someone to do this kind of work right is hard enough, but being lucky enough to find a detailed oriented professional was special!"

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

You should always hang drywall from the top down. Starting at the top makes it easier to create a straight, tight line between the ceiling and the wall. Any gaps that occur will be at the bottom, where they are easier to manage. You can either cut the bottom piece of drywall to fit the remaining space or cover the gap with baseboard trim. Additionally, starting at the top is physically easier, as you won't have to fit the top sheet into a tight space between the lower sheet and the ceiling, or try to balance the upper sheets on the lower ones while securing them.

You may need to replace drywall because of smoke damage. If the drywall is covered in soot, you may be able to clean it, but it will require a lot of time and effort. You could spend hours cleaning the drywall only to find there is more damage and it needs to be replaced anyway. It’s usually easier and safer to remove the smoke-damaged drywall and replace it.

To maintain plaster walls, inspect them regularly for cracks and seal them early. Clean the walls by dusting regularly or using a gentle, damp cloth. It's also important to avoid moisture exposure. Repainting as needed will help maintain the wall's appearance and longevity.

Costs depend on damage extent of damage, labor, finishing, and whether mold remediation is needed.
