"I was totally impressed. They first came several days ago and look at my issues, then repaired my drywall. I had three companies from Angie's List and I contacted them, but on two of them get back to me then I pick Paul's Drywall. My contact with them was total satisfactory."

"Absolutely phenomenal work. In and out faster than I would have thought. I got my drywall replaced in one room and patched in the living room. I couldn’t even tell there was ever a hole in the wall. They did not disappoint."

"VERY well!!!!! This was an extremely difficult painting job and required days and days of prep, multiple coats of paint, and then days of touch up. This company is AMAZING!!! Christian and Diego are the best! They worked long hard days and finished on time and on budget. Their attention to detail was just perfect! I would hire them again in an instant. Cannot recommend highly enough!!!!!!!"

"He and the other worker are inconsistent on the days and times that they were even here and working. One worker took a very long lunch break and appeared to have fallen asleep in his truck when we were gone. Then he said had no materials and could not continue to work. He left at 3pm. He would leave to do another job, when there was still work to be done for us. Since the 2nd payment, he has not shown up again. He wanted $500 of the last payment before work was completed, but we wouldn?t pay more without finishing the job. He will not return our calls. (Graded F for overall, C for price, C for quality, F for responsiveness, F for punctuality, F for professionalism, and that I would not use them again) UPDATE AS OF 2/17/16: The contractor has completed the job and we reached an agreement with the service provider. We no longer are seeking a complaint through Angie's List against Antonio Drywall Repair & Texture. We also updated the grades for this provider."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.

There are several things you should not do when installing drywall. Common mistakes include: adding too many screws, over-sanding, not adding backing support, and installing drywall unevenly. You also should avoid screwing into the same place twice, installing Sheetrock with tapered edges on the outside, and making too many joints.

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.

It is more difficult to drywall a ceiling than it is to drywall a wall, but not so hard that DIYers can’t tackle it. One of the main issues with hanging drywall on your ceiling is getting it into place. Drywall isn’t light so, if you are hanging full drywall panels, you will need at least two (it’s better with more) people to hold the panel while you drill it into the ceiling as a single piece can weigh between 40 and 60 pounds and will need to be held in place for up to 10 minutes.

You should leave a gap between drywall sheets because they naturally expand and contract along with the building framing as temperature and humidity change. Most pro drywall installers leave a gap of about ⅛ inch between drywall sheets, allowing the sheets to expand, contract, and shift without cracking or becoming damaged. If you don’t leave enough gaps between slabs, the edges will press against each other when they expand, and the pressure can cause visible cracks.
