"Troy took wallpaper off master bedroom and painted walls and trim. He also painted trim and cabinets in master bath. A helper of did pressure washing we asked for. The wallpaper job was a nightmare--3 layers of old wallpaper. He also patched an area of drywall where we'd had old light swtches removed. He stuck with this hard job and did excellent work. He provides a contact before work is done. We were very pleased with the job he did."

"Erskine does a fantastic job! He has divided a room into two for me, replaced windows and doors, built railings and installed grab bars, put in a beautiful kitchen backsplash, installed bathroom mirror/light fixtures, and repaired drywall and trim. Painting is next on the list! He is extremely professional and responsive and I feel like I have a true partner in my home renovations. As a bonus, he is also reasonably priced! Highly recommend!!"

"I’m a fellow contractor and hired F&G Construction to help me complete a project. There were all types of different wood that needed to be matched up, drywall repair, and some painting and staining. He did an amazing job and the finished work was truly breathtaking!! I have been through many local contractors for drywall work, and I have never been so impressed. I look forward to working with Frank on future projects!"

"This is a great company. These people are very professional and very experienced in their craft. I needed a house cleaner and Maria came quickly and did a wonderful job cleaning my house. I have hired her to do my house cleaning. Her husband was able to fix my back French doors, the frames were rotting and needing to be replaced. He did this and painted the frame and the doors. He also painted several doors in the upstairs leading to closets. Everything was done with care and looks brand new. I would recommend them for any project you are thinking about having done. They are honest and reliable!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can paint over plaster, but repair any damage to the plaster first, or the paint will crack and bubble. You should also prepare the surface of the plaster to accept paint, which gives your paint job the best chance of looking good and lasting a long time. Before applying the color you want, apply a coat or two of primer. Additionally, use latex paint, and choose a latex paint with a satin finish for areas with dampness, like bathrooms.

If you already have plaster walls and ceilings, adding new plaster costs $2 to $10 per square foot. For an average-sized room, that would come out to $1,200 to $10,000. However, the cost to replace plaster with drywall is higher—running between $720 and $1,250 for a 10-by-8-foot wall or ceiling (not including drywall finishing).

While every home has its own unique needs, ceiling drywall installation typically follows a staggered or stepped pattern to enhance structural integrity and reduce the visibility of seams. Starting from one corner, sheets are placed perpendicular to the ceiling joists, with the ends of adjacent sheets meeting along the center of the joist. The next row begins with a half sheet, ensuring joints don't align vertically. This alternating pattern, combined with proper taping and mudding, creates a seamless appearance and strengthens the ceiling structure, minimizing the risk of cracks over time.

Drying alone can take 1 to 4 hours to dry to the touch per plaster layer, but some types of plaster take several hours longer to dry. However, this doesn’t mean the job is done because plaster doesn’t fully harden until it cures, which can take a few days to a couple of weeks. It may take even longer if you’re building a new, pretty thick plaster wall. Allow the plaster to cure before painting it.

Yes, a fan can help drywall mud dry faster by improving air circulation and reducing humidity in the room. Drywall mud dries through evaporation, so increasing airflow speeds up this process. However, you should position the fan to blow across the room rather than directly on the wet mud. This helps prevent drying too quickly, which can cause cracking. You should also use a dehumidifier if high humidity is an issue.
