"I recently hired Mark Paulos Painting LLC to paint my condo, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the results! From start to finish, Mark was professional, detail-oriented, and truly went above and beyond what was expected. In addition to the painting, he handled drywall repairs that came out flawlessly — you would never know there was any damage. The finished product looks absolutely beautiful, and the quality of his work exceeded my expectations. Mark was reliable, easy to communicate with, and clearly takes great pride in his craftsmanship. My condo looks like a brand-new space, and I have him to thank for that. I would not hesitate to hire Mark Paulos Painting LLC again and will absolutely be recommending him to friends and family. If you’re looking for a painter who does the job right and then some, look no further!"

"Clint Wallace completed a full master bathroom renovation at our house. He did a great job and was a pleasure to work with. There were a few unanticipated complications as the bathroom had not been touched for 40 years. Clint dealt with all of them with a great attitude and professionalism. We are happy with the finiahed work every day and will use Clint for future work."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

It’s always better to follow proven drywall repair tips and fix the seams that look bad. However, if you simply want to make them less noticeable until you have time to fix them, you can use paint. A darker color of paint makes bad drywall tape seams less noticeable than light-colored paint. Matte paint hides bad seams better than glossy paint does, too.

The two most common drywall thicknesses for ceilings are 1/2-inch and 5/8-inch. For most standard residential applications, 1/2-inch drywall is sufficient and widely used. It provides adequate support and is lighter and easier to handle during installation compared to thicker sheets. However, 5/8-inch drywall is often used for specific cases where additional benefits are needed. It is heavier but provides superior sound dampening and fire resistance. You should consider using 5/8-inch drywall for ceilings in commercial buildings, between a garage and a living space, or above a finished basement to meet building codes or for enhanced soundproofing.

Drywall can get wet and dry out without sustaining permanent damage, but only if the water damage is minor. If you have a small leak and are quick to correct the issue and set up blower fans and dehumidifiers, your drywall should dry out. If the leak is persistent, the drywall becomes totally waterlogged, or mold begins forming on the drywall, you should remove and replace it.

Many homeowners choose to install tongue and groove over drywall. The great thing about this type of ceiling is that it hides imperfections. If your drywall is a little bit wonky or has some minor damage, the tongue and groove planks should cover it and give it an even appearance. Installation is simplest if you install battens over the existing framing before installing your tongue and groove planks.

There shouldn’t be any gaps between your walls and ceiling. These can be fixed with joint compound but that is only a fix, and it’s much better if your drywall fits correctly in the first place. Sometimes gaps can appear if your foundation shifts significantly but if this is the case, you have a much bigger problem than patching drywall.
