"Mr. Mills showed up on time after i had 2 other co tractors no show. Not only was his work outstanding but his price was unbeatable. He and his coworker were friendly and efficient, completing the job in about 2 hours start to finish. I would highly recommend Mr. Mills and his crew to anyone who needs drywall work done."

"I highly recommend E&D Plastering. I had a very large hole (~30"x42") in my hallway ceiling, another very large hole in a closet ceiling from removing an old air handler, and a huge sagging area in my son's bedroom ceiling. Eddie repaired all the holes, including some areas in the closet wall that were just missing drywall. He cut out all the sagging areas of ceiling. He repaired everything and finished it all so that it matches the existing textures. He was careful to cover the walk through the house and all the furniture in my son's room with paper and plastic. He swept up and mopped when the job was done. His price was more than fair. His communication about the job was excellent. He came when he said he would. I will definitely hire him again in the future."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

Pros ensure smooth finishes and lasting repairs, avoiding visible patches.

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.

Plaster ceilings can sag for several reasons. In some cases, the plaster and other building materials shift and come apart over time, which is why you’ll commonly find drooping plaster ceilings in older homes. Improper installation, foot traffic, and water damage—often from a leaky roof or a broken pipe—can also cause plaster ceilings to sag.

Beadboard is a decorative element and lacks the structural integrity of drywall. It cannot hold much weight and is not meant to be used as an insulator or moisture barrier, like drywall is. In almost all cases, beadboard is placed over an existing wall surface which, in modern days, is usually drywall, but decades ago could have been wood paneling.
