Customers say: Quality work

"Jimmy's team did an outstanding job in finishing our basement. They were very flexible with the scope of work, allowing us to complete certain phases of the project on our own. They did framing and drywall while we did all electrical, flooring and painting. The drywall finishing was outstanding making it very easy to paint. His crew worked very hard each and every day and finished the project ahead of our expectations. I highly recommend Jimmy and JMK"

"Alfredo and his team are professionals every step of the way! Alfredo came in with a favorable offer to repair and paint a ceiling and two walls damaged by a water leak. The repairs are done perfectly! No visible seams in the drywall, and the repainted areas blend flawlessly with the undamaged part of the walls and ceiling. Beautiful work. Bravo! I would definitely recommend A&J Painting to anyone who wants work done in their home."

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

Only use spackle on plaster walls when the imperfection is small. It’s best used for nail holes or small dings in the plaster. Spackle dries quickly, allowing you to continue the repair process shortly after using it. Plaster can be tricky to repair, though, so if you run into issues, call a pro so that you don’t risk further damage.

A post-drywall inspection could uncover many problems that weren’t present during the pre-drywall inspection, including insufficient insulation, missing weather stripping, improperly installed plumbing and lighting fixtures, flooring damage, drywall damage, plumbing leaks, aesthetic issues, and more. Structural problems, which are often expensive to fix and are common reasons to walk away after a home inspection, are easier to see before the drywall goes up, but a post-drywall inspection may highlight minor issues with house settling and foundation problems.

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.

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

You should leave a gap between drywall sheets because they naturally expand and contract along with the building framing as temperature and humidity change. Most pro drywall installers leave a gap of about ⅛ inch between drywall sheets, allowing the sheets to expand, contract, and shift without cracking or becoming damaged. If you don’t leave enough gaps between slabs, the edges will press against each other when they expand, and the pressure can cause visible cracks.
