"We hired Herrera's Drywall team to eliminate the popcorn ceiling in our house. Hector was very communicative before the project started and during the project execution phase. The quality of the drywall finish was top notch. He went above and beyond what was being asked to make sure the project was done right. His pricing is fair. The project was completed ahead of schedule. Couldn't be happier!"

"Oscar and his team did an incredible job helping us fix and replace our drywall in our basement, clean up the roofs of our house and detached garage, replace exterior siding that was damaged, and also clean and repair our windows. It was a seamless experience from beginning to end. Oscar was proactive and communicative about the work that was being performed (as well as the work timeline), we knew our home was in great hands. He also has excellent attention to detail, and we are so impressed with the quality of the work on our home. The project was completed efficiently, and as I previously noted, the end results are amazing! I would definitely hire Oscar and his team again for our future renovation projects."

"I had an excellent experience with this drywall company from start to finish. They were professional, punctual, and did outstanding work. The quality of the drywall installation and finishing was flawless ? smooth seams, clean edges, and great attention to detail. They kept the work area clean, communicated clearly throughout the process, and completed everything on time. It?s hard to find contractors who take this much pride in their work. I highly recommend them and would absolutely use them again!"

"Jeramie and his team did impeccable work! They were professional and efficient. Very communicative and knowledgeable skilled workers. Jeramie went above and beyond on our project. He not only fixed our ceiling, but painted the room like new! This was great value for the job which included drywall repair/replacement, insulation install, texture, and painting. We would highly recommend Tile Decor and plan to hire Jeramie again for more projects in the future. Great team and unbeatable value!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

You can skim coat plaster, but it’s better to repair the plaster itself. A skim coat is a thin coat of drywall joint compound spread over the surface of a wall. The result is a flat finish that looks pleasing, but part of the appeal of plaster is its imperfections and aesthetic. Skim coating is best when limited to drywall applications.

You should stagger drywall sheets to help prevent cracking. The joints between drywall sheets are the weak spots, so if you install drywall with seams aligned, you’ll create weak lines that run across the length of the wall and extend from floor to ceiling. But when you stagger drywall, the solid sections of panels will support the joints. This can prevent seams from cracking or separating due to fluctuating temperature and humidity, vibrations from movement inside the home, and gravity.

Textured walls can increase the value of your home if the style is modern and seen as a desirable feature and not something a prospective buyer would need to remedy. A good example of this is popcorn texture versus Venetian plaster. The plaster wall would add value to your home, whereas the popcorn texture may be something a new buyer would want to remove.

If the holes in the plaster are small, you can fill them with layers of patching plaster until they’re filled. After it dries, you can sand the plaster and paint over it. If the hole is much larger, consider using bonding plaster first and then a layer of patching plaster, completing the process with sanding and a layer of paint.

In most cases, no, you won’t need a permit to replace drywall. If you’re changing the floorplan of your home by adding or removing walls during the drywall project, then you might need a permit, but replacement or repairs usually doesn’t require a permit. Your drywall professional should be able to confirm whether or not a permit is required for your project. If it is, it’s likely to add between $50 and $150 to your total cost. Keep in mind that you will need permits if you plan to install new electrical wiring or plumbing lines behind your new drywall.
