"Fantastic craftsmanship and customer service. Mr. Guzman showed up for the quote as scheduled. Our kitchen was taken down to the studs and new drywall was I stalled. We also had a smaller project in two of our BR closets that needed a bit of attention. One closet was half poorly dry walled and the other was a small plaster repair. Also Guzman Drywall started and finished my project on time as quoted with no extra costs. Friendly, courteous and professional. This is hard to find these days."

"It was a very challenging room to drywall, with lots of angles, small walls creating lots of seams, and studs were not consistently 16" on-center either. But the work was completed well and charged as estimated, at a very reasonable price. Very professional work!"

"Main job was removal of whole house fan, install drywall and insulation, and paint ceiling. Also replaced old smoke and CO detectors and patched as needed. Job was completed within the week of initial contact. Estimate for job was reasonable, especially compared wih other estimates received. I especially appreciated that John provided thorough explanation of everything to be done. Will definitely hire this contractor for future jobs!"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Although they have similar applications, spackle and joint compound are not the same. Their primary differences lie in their composition, consistency, and ideal use cases.

Spackle is composed of gypsum and binding agents, making it thicker than joint compound. It dries quickly and is easy to sand, which makes it ideal for small wall repair projects like filling nail holes or patching minor damage.

Joint compound, also known as drywall mud, consists of limestone and gypsum. It is primarily used for large-scale projects, such as taping and finishing the seams on newly installed drywall. It tends to shrink more than spackle and can be more difficult to spread.

While both products can be used to fill small depressions and cracks, spackle cannot replace joint compound for taping and mudding new drywall. Conversely, you can often use joint compound for small patching jobs typically done with spackle.

Plaster itself has a higher R-value than drywall. However, there are other considerations surrounding plaster and insulation. As a general rule, it's easier to obtain consistency in insulating value and quality when working with drywall rather than plaster. Plaster walls often don't contain any insulation behind the wall covering by design, and careful evaluation is necessary when choosing to add it.

Yes, drywall can hold a 50-pound TV. However, when mounting a TV, you’ll either need to attach it to wall studs or use drywall anchors. If you use anchors, make sure to buy a type that can hold at least 50 pounds. Molly bolts, threaded anchors, and toggle bolts are all good options. For extra support, you can also install a wall mounting plate with the anchors.

Drywall is safe to cut as long as you follow proper procedures, such as wearing personal protective equipment and using the right tools to score and cut the drywall. When cutting new drywall, it can release dust with silica and other compounds that could pose health risks. Leave cutting drywall to the pros, or wear a high-quality respiratory mask, goggles, and other PPE when handling drywall.

If your home was built before the 1940s and was not remodeled in the past 50 or so years, you probably have plaster walls. Aside from assuming, there are some practical ways to tell if you have plaster walls, including the following: If you knock on the wall and it feels solid, not hollow, if you can’t insert a thumbtack easily, if there are cracks that look like spiderwebs, or if your home has curved, arched, or swirled walls, doorways, or window openings.

If you have an unfinished basement or attic, you could examine the backs of any finished walls to check, too.
