"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!"

"My husband and I are remodeling our living room and dining room and he saw Wilson plastering truck at Lowe s and after calling about 3 other plastering business to get quotes, Wilson plastering was the only one to get back to him and came right out to the house to asses the job and He gave us a fair quote for the job that needed to be done. He was here within a few days with his work crew to start the job. They got the job done in one day and were very neat and clean. They put down paper to protect the floor and covered the walls and such that were not being plastered. My husband and I would highly recommend them. In fact we plan to have them come back to do 2 other rooms in our house."

"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

Choose a drill bit that is the size of the screws of the anchors you will use. You aren’t drilling through metal or concrete—hopefully—so any standard twist, wooden or all-purpose drill bit will work fine. It’s also important to have a screwdriver capable of drilling through the drywall and into the stud. The good news is most available drills, even the older ones, can do this with no issue.

While a normal moisture level for drywall is between 5% and 12%, replacement is recommended if you get consistent readings above 17%. At this level, the drywall is likely too compromised by extensive moisture damage to be considered safe. You can replace either the entire sheet or just the affected section. If you are unsure after a visual inspection, it is best to have a contractor or water restoration provider use a professional moisture meter to get an accurate reading.

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Drywall texture refers to the techniques used on the surface of drywall to create a pleasing visual or tactile effect. Depending on your desired outcome, drywall texture can range from incredibly subtle to a focal point of a room. Textures play a significant role in interior design and are an excellent and relatively cost-effective way to change the feeling of a room.

Plastering lasts for around 15 to 20 years without needing repairs or maintenance in most cases, and with proper upkeep, plastering can last a lifetime—sometimes more than 100 years. Plaster repair costs between $1 and $3 per square foot, and you may need these services once every 15 to 20 years or so unless you have a harsh climate where humidity changes are a constant issue. You can also opt to skim-coat plaster for between $0.90 and $1.30 per square foot, which may serve you better in the long run.
