"Oscar did an excellent job on our drywall project. He was professional and very efficient. The work was neat and clean, and he finished everything in about 2 hours. The price was fair and the result looks great. Highly recommend Oscar!"

"Extremely pleased with immediate response on Home Advisior request for Pro. Ron called immediately right about our need. Ron gave fair quote and offered several dates right away to work with our schedule. We picked a time so I could get to work. He arrived 10 minutes early which really helped my work schedule. He and his step-daughter were very friendly, caring, professional, clean an quick. Worked really well together. He mentioned in initial call he would fix hole in drywall so we would never know there was a hole. Both did the deliver. Painted wall section as well and blended so we can’t tell anything ever happened to wall. Very respectful of our property. Absolutely impressed with their work and highly recommend Ron C. Drywall, LLC for your repair. Ron even confirmed and and was easy to reach when I called him back. So professional!! Thank you Ron C. Drywall, LLC from a most satisfied customer in Mukilteo."

"Rick is a craftsman. With 35 years experience, he has skills! He took a badly remodeled room with holes and patched-in drywall, and made it look like new construction. He also redid an archway and made it look like it had been professionally done in the first place. I will be having him do other projects. He’s pleasant and communicates well, then does what he promised. What a find. Thank you."

"We originally had Brandon and his crew drywall an unfinished storage area and were very pleased with the work. We hired him again to repair a bedroom ceiling when we replaced all the track lighting with recessed lighting. When they finished you would never know it had been patched in so many places. Excellent work, reasonable price and great service!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

The easiest way to tell if a wall is load bearing is to check if it’s an exterior wall or if it runs perpendicular to the joists above and below it (or parallel to beams). Exterior walls are almost always load-bearing, and walls that run under beams or parallel to them are also usually load-bearing. There are exceptions to these rules, and walls that don’t fit into these categories can still be load-bearing. If you’re unsure, hire a structural engineer to look at your home to assess whether or not the wall is structural.

Both plaster and drywall are durable wall finishes, but they differ significantly in installation, cost, performance, and aesthetics.

Installation & Cost: Drywall installation is faster and more affordable, typically costing $1.50 to $3 per square foot. It uses premade sheets, making it a more accessible DIY project. Plastering is a labor-intensive craft that requires specialized skills, pushing costs to $2 to $10 per square foot. It involves applying a wet paste over a lath framework.

Durability & Performance: Plaster is generally more durable, longer-lasting, and provides superior soundproofing. It is also a better insulator, which can help reduce energy costs. Drywall is easier to remove for future renovations.

Aesthetics: Drywall provides a smooth, uniform surface ready for paint or texture. Plaster offers a high-end, naturally textured look that can hide imperfections and is often preferred for achieving a classic or historic aesthetic.

Which is better? The choice depends on your priorities. Drywall is ideal for those prioritizing a lower upfront cost, faster installation, and DIY potential. Plaster is the better option for a higher-end project where durability, soundproofing, and a unique, premium finish are more important than the initial cost.

The easiest way to cut holes in drywall for electrical boxes is to use a spiral saw with a drywall router bit. Hang the drywall without cutting out a hole for the box, but make sure you measure and mark where the box is located on the wall. Once you screw in the drywall sheet, drill a small hole into the box void, insert the spiral saw bit, and move it around the edge of the box using the inside wall as a guide. You can also use an oscillating multi-tool with an electrical box cutout for fast, professional results.

Common causes include water leaks, settling, and impact. Address underlying issues to prevent recurring damage.

Applying spackle is a simple DIY project that most people can complete in just a few hours. Even homeowners who have little DIY experience can complete this project in an afternoon. However, if you're uncomfortable with the project or don't have the time, you can always hire a pro to help.
