"John gave me an estimate over the summer after letting me know his schedule wasn't open until fall. After looking at the sagging plaster ceilings in our 1920s house, he recommended covering with drywall, and he did the work in December. John and his colleague did two ceilings in 4 days (about 700 square feet total) and they are a huge improvement. We're already planning to hire him again!"

"Kyle and his crew did a top notch job plastering my house. They applied very smooth finishes to my ceilings and walls. One of my ceilings was about 18 feet high, cathedral style. They brought in the staging and got it done. They fixed my interior entry way as well and now it looks brand new. They got numerous spots in three different rooms and then a good size of wall in the basement. Then sanded everything out. They were there about 3 and a half days and very reasonably priced. They were also very neat. Kyle also came out to the house to look it over before giving his estimate, If you need a plasterer or somebody who does drywall, do yourself a favor and call Wilson Plastering. This is the company to go with."

"Project: Drywall/Sheetrock Plastering Company: NE Plastering and Painting We hired NE Plastering and Painting to handle drywall and sheetrock plastering work in three separate areas of our home. Overall, we were very pleased with the experience from start to finish. The crew, led by foreman Nelson Hernandez, arrived on time, and they took great care to protect the surrounding areas — floors, furniture, and adjacent walls — before starting work. Their attention to detail during the job was clear, and the finished plastering came out smooth and professionally done across all three areas. We also obtained a few quotes before choosing this company, and their pricing was the most competitive, without sacrificing quality. Based on the professionalism, quality of work, and value, we'd absolutely hire NE Plastering and Painting again for future drywall or plastering projects, and we'd recommend them to anyone in need of this kind of work."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Installing or repairing plaster on ceilings differs slightly from performing the same motions on a wall. You’ll apply slightly less plaster to lower the overall weight of the ceiling. Wall texturing is common, whereas most ceilings are smooth plaster. Tough coat plaster is strong, meaning you can use less while retaining a solid surface.

The easiest way to cut holes in drywall for electrical boxes is to use a spiral saw with a drywall router bit. Hang the drywall without cutting out a hole for the box, but make sure you measure and mark where the box is located on the wall. Once you screw in the drywall sheet, drill a small hole into the box void, insert the spiral saw bit, and move it around the edge of the box using the inside wall as a guide. You can also use an oscillating multi-tool with an electrical box cutout for fast, professional results.

There are a few ways to figure out if your walls are plaster or drywall, but the pushpin method is probably the easiest option. To try it, choose a part of your wall where you can insert a pushpin or thumbtack without leaving an obvious mark. If it goes in easily, you have drywall. But if the wall is tough to penetrate, that’s plaster.

If your premixed drywall mud is dried out or has begun to set in the bucket, you may be able to revive it by adding warm water and stirring. However, the first and most important step is to scrape off any hard, dried bits of drywall that may have accumulated toward the top of the container and throw them away because they will not easily reconstitute back into the drywall mud mix.

Whether you can reuse a drywall anchor depends on its type, material, and how it is removed. Plastic anchors, such as expansion or self-drilling types, are generally considered single-use because they are designed to expand and are likely to break or become deformed upon removal. Metal anchors, like toggle bolts, are more durable and can often be reused if they are not damaged during extraction. However, with toggle bolts, the toggle mechanism can fall inside the wall when the bolt is removed, making it difficult to retrieve. If an anchor is damaged or must be cut for removal, it cannot be reused regardless of its material.
