How do I find a reliable drywall installer?

• <div><p>You should start looking for a drywall installer by choosing a local company with positive online reviews and ratings with the Better Business Bureau (BBB). Next, confirm that the professional is properly licensed using Angi’s <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">contractor licensing tool</a>, and ask the installer if they are fully insured. It’s a good idea to ask for recent customer references and call them to get their honest opinion about the contractor and their work. You can also ask the installer if they guarantee their work or provide a workmanship warranty.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to install drywall?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-cost-install-drywall.htm">Drywall installation costs</a> around <b>$2,000</b> on average, but some projects cost as low as <b>$400</b>, while larger or more complicated installations can cost <b>$6,000 or more</b>. The most important cost factor is the size of the room or area, as many contractors charge on a per-square-foot basis. You should also consider the complexity of the installation. If you have large, flat walls with few wall openings, you&rsquo;ll pay less than if you have multiple windows and doors to cut around, corners, or curved walls. </p></div>

Q: Should there be a gap between a drywall wall and the ceiling?

• <div><p>There shouldn&rsquo;t be any gaps between your walls and ceiling. These can be fixed with joint compound but that is only a fix, and it&rsquo;s much better if your drywall fits correctly in the first place. Sometimes gaps can appear if your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/8-signs-homes-foundation-trouble.htm">foundation shifts significantly</a> but if this is the case, you have a much bigger problem than patching drywall.</p></div>

Q: Does it matter which side of drywall you use?

• <div><p>Yes, it matters which side of drywall you use. One side is smooth, and the other is rough. The smooth side should be facing outward, toward the room, while the rough side should be hidden and facing the studs and framing of the house. The smooth side will be easier to apply tape, joint compound, and, later, paint to.</p></div>

Q: Can you do a bump out for a closet installation?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-a-bump-out-addition.htm">Bump-out additions</a> can add some space to a closet without requiring any significant structural work. This entails pushing back the existing rear or side of the closet, simply moving the wall into either an adjacent room or unused space. For ground-floor closets, this could even be extended to the exterior of the home, but that has its own complications. Bump-outs are a good discussion to have with your contractor if you&rsquo;re just looking to increase the space a little&mdash;not renovate the entire closet space. </p></div>

I would not recommend this painter. The owner does not keep track of his team who are inexperienced at best. 4.5 weeks they worked on painting my house and complained to me that I had an *eagle eye* because I constantly found places where they missed or where they rolled too heavy and left...
