"I had a couple of holes in my drywall, one small and one large. Zoran made it look like it had never happened! Even though I don't know much about drywall, I could easily tell that Zoran had a lot of experience just by seeing him work. He was prompt, communicative reasonably priced, and just seems like a really nice guy."

"Eric from Eric Garcia Contractor did an EXCELLENT job in fixing the tear in our ceilings drywall. Placed protection on our floor an wall to protect it from any mess. Eric kept us informed in what he was doing and when he needed let the ceiling dry before doing the next part of project Eric’s quote was very reasonable. Keeping his number for any future project we have."

"We were so impressed with Wilder Construction and the crew. They replaced hardie siding sheets on 2 sides of our house, as well as replaced all the rotted trim wood around all the windows and around the exterior where needed. They also power washed all the exterior, caulked and painted the exterior. Will recommend them for any projects anyone may need done. I will be using them for any other future projects that we may need in the future."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can install drywall over plaster, but there are important factors to consider. While it can create a smooth, flat surface, it is often not the best approach. Installing drywall over plaster will increase the wall's thickness, which can cause issues with existing window and door frames that may no longer fit. You might also need to adjust power outlets to keep them accessible. A better, though more expensive, option is to remove the old plaster and lath entirely before installing new drywall. Drywalling directly over plaster seals in the old material, and if any problems arise later, you will need to remove both layers down to the structural beams for repairs. Given the potential complications, this job is best handled by professionals.

The best tool for skim coating drywall is a skim coating blade, which can smooth out joint compound in wide stretches. While you could use a smaller drywall knife for skim coating, the smaller size means it’ll take longer to smooth out each section. Instead, consider investing in a skim coating blade for the quickest application.

If you suspect black mold is inside your walls, do not punch a hole in the drywall yourself to look. Call a mold inspection expert to help you. Some signs of a potential black mold infestation inside the wall include an unexplained musty, damp smell. Some people liken it to rotting vegetables. You may smell it most strongly through a wall outlet. If you and your family are experiencing constant coughing or symptoms that feel like an unexplained allergy, it could indicate black mold behind a wall.

The easiest way to remove texture from walls is the soak-and-scrape method. You’ll need to spray a section of the wall with water and let the water soak in and soften the texture. Then, you need to scrape the texture off using a drywall taping knife. This method works best with unpainted walls since paint prevents water from saturating the textured joint compound.

While it’s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.
