"Our original project was to finish up drywall work, painting and trim for two bathroom remodels. We decided to get quotes for inside doors along with it. Seeing that LM Coatings also does exterior painting and pressure washing, we decided to also get an outdoor quote for numerous pressure washing and painting of exterior doors and foundation. We were thinking of just doing the interior first and the exterior down the road, but decided to do all of it due to the fair price. Luis is very professional and knowledgeable. He was able to assess all of our projects quickly and give a thorough detailed quote. He and his crew are very polite and hardworking; even working all weekend in some cases. Although this project is named interior home paint, it obviously included drywall work, pressure washing many different things (including a metal roof) and exterior painting as well. We were pleased with everything, but he makes certain that you are satisfied before leaving. We were very impressed with his work ethic and willingness to please us. We will hire him again for sure and refer him to others too. Excellent on all!"

"Francisco and his crew showed up promptly at 8 AM on the first day and the following days of the project. They were polite, worked hard and were careful to clean up after themselves while working inside my house. The drywall work, wood paneling and some carpentry was nicely done plus a few extras projects. They cleaned up and removed all the construction trash at the end of the job."

"After submitting my drywall & painting project needs to Homeadvisor, I was contacted by several contractors who expressed eagerness to submit an estimate. I scheduled appointments with 3 contractors. Only one showed up: A+ Maintenance. I was impressed with Austin's professionalism. I accepted his estimate. The project was completed in a timely manner and I was satisfied with the quality of the work. I will use A+ Maintenance for future drywall and painting projects."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Applying plaster to a wall will usually cost between $2 and $10 per square foot for both the material and labor. The cost will vary based on the quality of the plaster you’re using and whether or not prep work is required before the work begins. Wall prep can add up to about 10% to your total costs. Plastering exterior walls can be more expensive in many cases because they are taller and require scaffolding and safety equipment.

Whether you need a drywall anchor depends on the specifics of your project, particularly what you're hanging and where. You do not need a drywall anchor if you can screw or nail the object directly into a wooden stud, as the wood provides sufficient support and stability. However, if there are no studs in the location where you plan to hang the item, you should use drywall anchors to ensure it is securely supported. For very lightweight objects, like small pictures, adhesive picture hanging strips can be a suitable alternative to anchors.

Both plaster and drywall are durable wall finishes, but they differ significantly in installation, cost, performance, and aesthetics.

Installation & Cost: Drywall installation is faster and more affordable, typically costing $1.50 to $3 per square foot. It uses premade sheets, making it a more accessible DIY project. Plastering is a labor-intensive craft that requires specialized skills, pushing costs to $2 to $10 per square foot. It involves applying a wet paste over a lath framework.

Durability & Performance: Plaster is generally more durable, longer-lasting, and provides superior soundproofing. It is also a better insulator, which can help reduce energy costs. Drywall is easier to remove for future renovations.

Aesthetics: Drywall provides a smooth, uniform surface ready for paint or texture. Plaster offers a high-end, naturally textured look that can hide imperfections and is often preferred for achieving a classic or historic aesthetic.

Which is better? The choice depends on your priorities. Drywall is ideal for those prioritizing a lower upfront cost, faster installation, and DIY potential. Plaster is the better option for a higher-end project where durability, soundproofing, and a unique, premium finish are more important than the initial cost.

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.

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.
