"Surface pro really are pros! From their initial visit for an estimate to the last Dab of touch up paint on the final walk through I couldn’t be happier with the quality and professionalism exhibited by these two craftsmen. The drywall portion of the job is flawless and the tile was laid with much skill and looks great! I would recommend Surface Pros whole heartedly! Nice guys that show up when they say they will and top notch quality is a combo that can’t be beat!"

"Jean came out to do an estimate for our garage drywall. We have an area around the faucet that needs replaced. Things have been crazy busy and Jean was amazing and worked with my schedule. She was prompt and courteous and quickly had my estimate ready. Highly recommend."

"I highly recommend PatchitUp of Lansdale for drywall installation and painting. Lou provides valuable customer care, informing of steps of the project and detailed estimates. Technician Kameryn Stevens is very professional, courteous, and helpful. He worked on installing drywall and painting of my laundry room, garage wall, and bathroom. The work quality is excellent. and the work area is left clean every day of the project. Also recommend the Home Guard service which provides valuable discounts."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

It’s less costly to drywall a fireplace than shiplapping it since material costs are higher for shiplap. However, if you’re DIYing the project, shiplap is less expensive since you won’t have to pay for labor. With drywall, getting a smooth finish is difficult unless you’re a pro. Shiplap is ideal for an accent wall or unique space, such as around a fireplace, since it adds texture and gives off a cozy vibe.

You can paint over plaster, but repair any damage to the plaster first, or the paint will crack and bubble. You should also prepare the surface of the plaster to accept paint, which gives your paint job the best chance of looking good and lasting a long time. Before applying the color you want, apply a coat or two of primer. Additionally, use latex paint, and choose a latex paint with a satin finish for areas with dampness, like bathrooms.

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.

Popular wall textures include orange peel, knockdown, spray sand, and smooth finishes. Orange peel and knockdown are particularly common choices for drywall as they are simple and cost-effective. Orange peel texture has a lightly bumpy surface resembling the skin of an orange, while knockdown (sometimes called knockout) looks like a stucco finish with flattened high spots. In contrast, popcorn texture has fallen out of fashion, partly due to its past association with asbestos and a shift toward more restrained interior design styles.

While you can put new drywall over old drywall, it’s not always the best option. In some cases, drywalling over drywall can make it harder to find wires and pipes behind your walls and conceal more serious problems with your walls. It can also make the room smaller. On the plus side, putting drywall over drywall can improve soundproofing and insulation. Plus, it’s often less expensive than tearing down and adding new drywall.
