"Golden Key Drywall did an excellent job at my home for my two projects. They were small areas but they were extremely professional. They communicated with me during the process and are extremely knowledgeable and experienced. Archie and his brother Hector were excellent! I would hire them again to do any project. I highly recommend them for anybody who needs drywall projects completed."

"We had a great experience with this drywall repair company. The owner, Trent, and Alan were both extremely professional and took the time to explain the entire process and what to expect. What really stood out was how much care they took to protect our home—they covered everything to keep the space clean while they worked. The finished result was incredible. You honestly can’t tell there was ever any damage there in the first place. The wall looks completely seamless, like the repair never even happened. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing drywall work."

"Five Stars - Highly Recommend D-R Drywall Construction of Arlington, TX We recently hired D-R Drywall Construction to handle a big job in our garage: removing and replacing the entire ceiling, along with necessary repairs and finishing work on all the walls. We are absolutely thrilled with the results. Geo and his crew did a genuinely excellent job. The quality of the work is top-notch; everything is seamless and looks professionally finished. Beyond the great craftsmanship, we were highly impressed by two key things: they completed the work promptly and provided their service at a very reasonable price. It's rare to find such high quality combined with efficiency and fair pricing. If you are looking for a reliable, professional, and skilled drywall contractor in the Arlington area, we strongly recommend Geo and the team at D-R Drywall Construction."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.

In framing, studs are placed at 16-inch intervals to coincide with the typical spacing of wall materials such as drywall or plywood. This spacing is called "on-center" and is necessary for maintaining structural stability and efficient use of materials. The 16-inch spacing also helps to distribute the weight evenly across the building's structure. For those looking to cut material costs and improve energy efficiency, 24-inch stud spacing can be employed through a method called "advanced framing". This requires careful planning and adherence to local building codes to ensure structural integrity.

Plastering and skimming are two different techniques for finishing walls. Plastering involves applying a thick layer of a plaster mixture—typically containing gypsum, lime, cement, sand, and water—to create a new surface. This process often requires multiple coats and is used for repairing significant damage or creating decorative textures. Skimming, on the other hand, is a technique that involves applying a thin layer of drywall compound or joint compound over an existing surface to smooth it out, covering minor imperfections, small cracks, or uneven textures for a polished look. Plastering is generally more costly and labor-intensive than skimming. Although some people use the terms interchangeably, they refer to different processes and materials.

The amount of drywall you need for a 1,000-square-foot basement depends on the ceiling height, angles, number of doors and windows, and more. To find the wall square footage, multiply the width and height of each wall, minus any gaps from windows or doors, and add the totals together. You’ll also need enough drywood nails or screws to install the drywall correctly.

If you’re installing new drywall, you may need to skim coat the drywall first for a smooth finish and to allow the primer to adhere to the wall. It’s only necessary if there are imperfections in your drywall due to issues with the studs or improper drywall installation. If you’re refreshing existing walls, you may want to skim coat if there are imperfections across the wall. As an alternative, you can repair your drywall and sand it for a smooth finish before painting.
