"Jerry showed up on time. He started telling me about putting screws in the drywall. I did not know what he was talking about at first and then he explained it to me. I always just saw the drywall put on with nails not screws. It is great that they use all screws now. Moisture corrodes on the top of the nail head and it makes a bulge in the surface, then falls off and looks like a hole is in the drywall. Screws also lessen the chance of cracks later on because they hold the drywall tighter to the studs. Jerry was very patience with me when I asked him to put more screws in and fix some more cracks that I found when he was working. His initial price was a lot at first and he agreed to do it at my lower price. After I found the other cracks, I told him that I would give him his initial price. It was more involved and took more time than I thought it would take. Jerry was nice, worked very hard and paid attention to detail. I would highly recommend him."

"David was very active in completing,informing me of status of project and addressing issue during the project. Great job in remodeling home.Strengths: Drywall repair, flooring, painting, cabinetry, plumbing Weakness: Electrical, tiling, response after completionHis crew installed ceiling fans and the functionality was no longer consistent. If you turned on/off switch one room it controlled the fan and the other it controlled the light requiring you to manually turn off/on the unaffected at the fan. Electrical outlets on back wall of a room became inoperable. According to contractors, it was already that way. As I lived there before and had tenants in home for 3 yrs-it was not likely. David said he would have someone come look at it. As of Nov 19, he still has not sent anyone and has stop responding to me. Bathrooms were updated nicely from aged 1968 setting. The tilling in showers mediocre. Caulking was not neatly done and began to crack and fall apart in less than 2 months. After two attempts to correct the issues, it still is not corrected as of today. The big issue was a question, asked by my wife, if home needed to be leveled prior to remodeling due to a crack noticed in wall. It was answered no as the crack was due to home settling. Remodeled was done, house continued to degrade and broke some of the work they had done. David assured he was going to take care of it-but there has been no response until now. I have moved to find others to fix the deficiencies. I would suggest ensuring David is not stretched to thin in trying to do too many jobs. That has been his reason before in delays to return."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.

Textured walls are a great way to hide imperfections left over by drywall installation, but many homeowners feel like it’s an outdated look, despite there being so many types of drywall texture. And while the textured walls of today are a far cry from the popcorn ceilings and faux stucco of our grandmother’s homes, if you want a more modern look or you want to install wallpaper, it’s time to smooth out your walls.

If you don’t have studs in the area where you want to install your TV mount, you may still be able to install a TV mount on drywall. The easiest way to install a mount on drywall is by using drywall anchors—but not just any plastic anchors. Choose molly bolts or toggle anchors, which have a weight capacity of around 50 pounds. For added support, consider pairing drywall anchors with a wall mounting plate. Extra heavy TVs may need to be mounted via the ceiling joists or beams.

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.

A utility knife is sharp enough to score the drywall and it may work in a pinch for outlet box holes. However, one of the best tools for drywall when you need to make exact cuts for an outlet box quickly is a drywall saw. This handheld tool has a longer blade than a utility knife, so it penetrates the thickness of the drywall easily. The design of its handle and the teeth in its blade make it easier to control while cutting quicker than you can with a utility knife.
