"Indigo at Perfect Patch Pros did an outstanding job with our ceiling drywall repairs! He responded to my inquiry almost immediately, offered competitive pricing, and got me on the schedule right away. The quality of the repair was top-notch, with the texture perfectly matched to the surrounding drywall. Thanks!"

"It was drywall job, garage ceiling project. I would have preferred a more clean up effort. It would have made it quicker for them and less dust for us if used more tarp ping. They did clean when everything was done in the end. I was pleased with the turn around . I do plan on using them again on other projects ."

"I just used Marshall Painting, after getting bids from 4 contractors and Marshall was in the mid range. Will Marshall was very personable and his availability fit our needs. Our kitchen and great room have a vaulted ceiling and I wasn’t going to tackle that. Will arrived when stated and stayed until that section was done. It was a 3 day project and completed on time. Will is very neat and meticulous, a pleasure to work with."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

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.

The age of your home can clue you in to whether you have plaster or drywall ceilings. Homes built after the ‘70s are more likely to have drywall ceilings and walls, while older homes have plaster. You can also do the pushpin test: A pushpin will go into drywall, whereas it’s much harder to push one into a plaster wall. If you’re still unsure, ask a drywall professional to let you know which type of ceilings and walls you have.

Drywall repair is typically completed within a day, depending on damage extent.

Furring strips, thin strips of wood or metal, are not always required for ceiling drywall installation. If the ceiling surface is even and in good condition, drywall can be directly attached to the ceiling joists using screws. However, furring strips become essential when dealing with irregular surfaces or when additional insulation or soundproofing is needed. They create a level substrate for attaching the drywall. Ultimately, the decision to use furring strips depends on the condition of the existing ceiling and the specific requirements of the project.

Yes, wainscoting is installed directly over drywall. However, ensure the drywall is in good shape since it will support the wainscoting. If the drywall has issues, such as holes, mold, or mildew, repair them before installing the wainscoting. Alternatively, you can install a plywood substrate before attaching the trim.
