"Very happy I went with shoreline drywall for my basement rec room project. Adan runs a smooth operation and was very easy to work with. They hung the drywall quickly and did a great job with the finishing and texture. They do clean work. I will use them in the future and definitely recommend them!"

"Joel R at OCS Contracting was courteous, kind, helpful, knowledgeable, and great to talk to! He helped answer my questions and give great advice. One of the reasons I am so excited about working at Lowes is because the people are so positive, helpful, and supportive. They genuinely love what they do and are passionate about helping others with their home improvement projects. For me, the ad I saw on IG captured this: positivity & commitment to completing a project and doing it well. Thank you again, for a fantastic first impression of OCS Contracting!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Ryan gave me a quote AND he COMMITTED TO A DATE & TIME over the phone. I asked him to text me at work so I could come home, and be there when he started the work, which he did. HE WAS THERE ON TIME and finished the work in the quoted time. I have added him to my FAVORITES and will use him again. If you are looking for someone dependable, that values YOUR time as much as he does his time, you might want to give Ryan a call."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

All plaster walls will crack over time due to normal house settling and expansion and contraction from temperature and moisture changes. Small, thin hairline cracks are generally not serious and are mostly a cosmetic issue. However, larger or more significant cracks can indicate structural problems.

Here's how to tell the difference:

  • Cosmetic Cracks: Cracks that are 0.5 cm (0.2 inches) or thinner are typically cosmetic.

  • Structural Cracks: Cracks wider than 0.5 cm, excessive or deep cracks, multiple cracks in the same area, or cracks that span around corners can signify a structural or foundation issue. Cracks along the joints where walls meet the ceiling also warrant attention.

For cracks wider than 0.5 cm, structural repair is needed. If a crack is 2.5 cm (1 inch) or wider, or if you notice any signs of a structural problem, it is best to contact a plaster repair professional to assess the damage.

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.

You can repair plaster ceilings yourself after the cause of the ceiling damage has been addressed. However, the repair can easily take 5 hours and can be slightly challenging for those without previous experience. If you do decide to flex your DIY muscle, have a helper to help hold the ladder and pass you the tools for safety purposes.

The average cost to apply a skip-trowel drywall texture to walls is $1.25 to $2.00 per square foot. Ceilings cost slightly more because of the increased difficulty of working overhead. Additional cost factors include any drywall repairs and removal of existing textures or wallpaper.

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.
