"We had a leaky roof and needed drywall repair. Our roof was repaired, but as soon as the Patch Boys installer (Ty) removed the old drywall, he noticed the roof was still leaking. Ty could ve easily kept working and let us waste our money. Instead, he let us know so we could get the roof taken care of (again.) Patch Boys could ve taken our money and with the leaky roof, we would ve had to have the drywall repaired again. We appreciate the honesty of Jerry (owner) and Ty. Both were polite and professional. Ty takes great pride in his work and cleans up when he s done. We would use Patch Boys again and recommend them to family and friends."

"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."

"Our powder room walls had some damage underneath wallpaper. We needed the drywall removed, replaced and spackled as well as two medicine cabinet holes filled in. They did such an amazing job! And I am picky with work."

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.

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.

While it’s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.

You should leave a gap between drywall sheets because they naturally expand and contract along with the building framing as temperature and humidity change. Most pro drywall installers leave a gap of about ⅛ inch between drywall sheets, allowing the sheets to expand, contract, and shift without cracking or becoming damaged. If you don’t leave enough gaps between slabs, the edges will press against each other when they expand, and the pressure can cause visible cracks.

It’s not a good idea to plaster over broken plaster (unless by broken you’re referring to cracked, in which case that’s perfectly fine). However, broken plaster can be a sign of a larger underlying issue like foundation damage or severe damage to the lath holding up the plaster, so it’s worth investigating before you simply plaster on top of the damage.
