"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."

"NE plastering restored my kitchen ceiling with a beautiful plaster ceiling. A pipe freeze destroyed the old ceiling, and I am extremely happy with Mr. Hernandez' work. There was further damage in the upstairs bath and now the new plaster walls are smooth and ready for paint and paper. I highly recommend this expert plasterer. Gérald Crôteau"

"This was my first experience ever using home advisor. I signed up and was contacted within 5 minutes by Mike of AA ceilings, this was the only person who contacted me out of the 3 companies I picked from . He was very Knowledgable on the phone and came out to check out the job within days. He was very detailed when explaining everything in person and seemed like the right person so I went thru with him for the install . He assured me the ceiling would be commercial grade and came the next week for the install. Mikes team showed up half hour before schedule which was great and got to work right away. They exceeded my expectations and cuts were perfect arounds pipes and ceiling was a 10 out of 10. One of the most important things for me was when they were done they cleaned up and swept and you would not even know they were there. Would highly recommend them and look forward to working with them again in the future. Thanks again AA ceilings to Mike and his crew!!!"

"Nestaly and Edwin did a great job replacing an exterior wooden staircase and metal railing system with a Trex solution that is both beautiful and solid as a rock. They were here at 8 AM both days and cleaned the debris up afterward. Wonderful people and company to have working with me on this project. Fair pricing for this project and I was so pleased with the result that I already booked them to replace a couple of windows and exterior door. I will certainly use them in the future and can"t recommend them enough."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Fixing ceiling nail pops involves similar steps to wall repair, with the major difference being the orientation of the work. Ceiling nail pops can be more challenging because you may need to work overhead, which can be physically demanding and require additional safety precautions. Additionally, the ceiling may have different materials or finishes, such as textured surfaces, which can affect the repair process. Otherwise, the fundamental steps are the same.

How you hang the drywall can affect the finishing process. It's often easier to finish horizontal drywall panels, as the seams run across the wall rather than up and down. Standard drywall panels are 48 inches wide, so the seam is easy to reach without bending down or stretching your arms.

You should stagger drywall sheets to help prevent cracking. The joints between drywall sheets are the weak spots, so if you install drywall with seams aligned, you’ll create weak lines that run across the length of the wall and extend from floor to ceiling. But when you stagger drywall, the solid sections of panels will support the joints. This can prevent seams from cracking or separating due to fluctuating temperature and humidity, vibrations from movement inside the home, and gravity.

You can put drywall mud over paint to even out the surface or entirely resurface it. Sand the surface with 280-grit sandpaper, vacuum the debris and dust with a shop vac, and clean it with a slightly damp cloth. Allow the surface to dry. Apply drywall primer, especially if you’re skim-coating an entire wall. Apply the right type of drywall mud over the surface and smooth it with a trowel. Allow the layer to cure fully, then sand it before applying another layer or painting it.

When you are learning how to tape and mud drywall, waiting for things to dry requires a lot of patience. So how long does drywall mud take to dry? On average, it takes about 24 hours. However, it depends on things like the thickness of the mud, as well as the room’s temperature, humidity, and ventilation. Using thin layers of mud in a warm, low-humidity room with good airflow reduces average drying time. You also could speed up drying time by making use of hot drywall mud, which consists of a powder that you mix with water, instead of using pre-mixed mud.
