"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."

"Larry was a very nice person who listened to what I needed, finished off drywall finishes that I couldn't and ran into an unusual issue on my previous painted surface that had bubbled. He stuck with it and made it right. Hard working honest individual. I appreciate all the work he did."

"We couldn’t be happier with the drywall repair after a major water leak in our home. The workmanship was outstanding—the repairs blended seamlessly with the existing walls, Sean and the crew were professional, punctual, and left everything spotless. I highly recommend Barbers Drywall to anyone looking for top-quality drywall work and exceptional service!"

"Dead Level was the first to answer the request for quote. Mr. Trevor was the first to offer coming out to the property to see project prior quoting. He showed up on time, every time. Mr. Trevor kept us informed throughout the project. We explained the level of need and Dead Level was able to work with our schedules and made it happen. The work him and his team completed was above and beyond. The spectrum of the project increased and they were able to adapt. Providing drywall patching to trim work and painting. Would 100% hire Dead Level again. Owner, Mr. Trevor and his team were upfront, honest, timely and hard-working. Much of the project had to be completed as we were out of town. We were well informed the entire time and honestly had less stress because of him and his team."

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

It doesn’t matter which way you lay drywall, and you can choose to install it horizontally or vertically depending on the size of the wall and how tall the ceiling is. It’s easier to lay drywall sheets vertically if you have a taller ceiling, but laying sheets horizontally makes it easier to apply joint compound.

If you’re installing new drywall, you may need to skim coat the drywall first for a smooth finish and to allow the primer to adhere to the wall. It’s only necessary if there are imperfections in your drywall due to issues with the studs or improper drywall installation. If you’re refreshing existing walls, you may want to skim coat if there are imperfections across the wall. As an alternative, you can repair your drywall and sand it for a smooth finish before painting.

Very little. One inch of water can stain walls, warp wood, and create a perfect environment for mold growth. One to two inches of water can do significant damage to drywall, insulation, and electrical systems. Anything over that is considered an extensive flood, often resulting in severe structural damage.

Drywall insulation costs around $1,800, on average, but prices can range from $500 to $4,500, depending on a few different factors. The following things are important considerations to make when pricing out your insulation project:

  • Square footage of insulation

  • Type of insulation 

  • Climate in your area and the insulation R-value required

  • Whether or not your walls are already finished

  • Accessibility of the area 

  • Whether or not you need old insulation removed first

For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors.
