"Garland did an excellent job of repairing the damage to our ceiling caused by a water leak. I could tell by our phone conversation that he was very knowledgeable and knew what he was doing. I will definitely be contacting him again for any future work that needs to be done."

"I cannot speak highly enough of the owner Mr. Williams and the services with Craftsman Homes RVA. Mr. Williams was prompt, courteous and professional. He is committed to high quality, cost competitive work and customer satisfaction. He installed two huge new windows 74 in high x 7ft wide and 74 in high x 10ft wide on the exterior of my home, which required removing most of the existing wall prior to installation. They fit perfectly and look fabulous. He has a sharp eye for detail and great suggestions for design. We are confident in his abilities and work and feel good about being able to recommend a great professional contractor to our friends. We will be hiring him again for additional window installations, remodeling an addition."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The cost to install drywall is between $1.50 and $3 per square foot, while shiplap installation costs between $2 and $7 on average. In most applications, shiplap installations cost more than that of putting in drywall. However, several ways exist to reduce shiplap prices, especially for small locations or accent walls, which can keep the total cost of shiplap competitive with that of drywall.

In some minor cases, you can DIY drywall repair with minimal time and money spent. This method is best when you have a hole made by a singular problem, such as accidental furniture moving, and not a continuous problem, like a rodent infestation. 

Knowing what product to use is crucial. For example, small holes only need spackle, whereas large holes might need a new piece of drywall. You can flex your DIY abilities on this project, but if you’d like a second opinion or have a more significant problem, it’s best to call in a drywall repair pro.

Most drywall used for interior walls of homes is 1/2-inch thick. This size strikes a balance of being easy to handle and hang while being thick enough for the durability needed on interior wall applications.

Yes, you can speed up the time it takes for plaster to dry, but it's important to do so carefully to avoid issues like cracking or crumbling. Proper ventilation is key; open a window or use a fan to circulate air in the room. Heat can also accelerate drying, but be cautious, as too much heat can cause the plaster to dry too quickly and crack. Check the plaster's packaging for the recommended drying temperature and set the room's thermostat accordingly. While managing humidity is important, avoid using a dehumidifier, which can remove moisture too aggressively and result in crumbly plaster.

When doing a DIY paint job, it can be tricky to achieve the perfect, straight line between your wall and ceiling. There are several methods, including lining it with painter’s tape and using the “cut in” brush tactic. Some homeowners choose to apply a thin line of caulk to the wall-ceiling seam to create the appearance of a perfect line.
