"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!"

"I hired Andy and First West Construction in January 2020 to fix a poor start to a complete basement renovation by a previous contractor. I pointed out everything wrong that I knew and Andy and his main carpenter, Julio, found many more things wrong. We listed them all and Andy quoted me a very fair price to finish the entire project within five weeks which included concrete floor leveling, fixing wood framing, insulation, drywall, painting, trim, cabinet installation and flooring installation. The schedule of workers was Monday through Friday 9-5 but that didn't always happen. Sometimes they needed their workers on their other projects but also waiting for subcontractors caused slight delays. The project took about 11 weeks in all. I appreciated all the advice Andy and Julio provided. They are very professional and adaptable. They want the customer to be happy and pleased with the work and that causes less stress. They won't charge you extra for every little thing. They bought most supplies and I reimbursed them. Twice I generated long lists of little items that needed to be resolved with the project and they got them done within days. It wasn't great that a pile of the project's garbage was left outside our back door for a month; they didn't have a place to dump it, I guess. It was a small price to pay for a great finished product...a beautiful finished basement. Rodrigo, Douglas, Juan and their other workers were courteous, professional and usually highly skilled. I highly recommend this company for a home remodel, renovation or construction. Their work is very high quality."

Drywall questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is possible to rewire a house without removing the drywall, but this doesn’t work in all homes. You can pull out old wires and insert new ones if you have access to the wiring system via the ceiling or through a crawl space. Some pros can also use a magnetic kit to fish the old wire out of the wall through a hole cavity and install the new wires. Just keep in mind that doing this is less stable than removing drywall, as you won’t be able to staple the wires into the framing.

Drywall texture refers to the techniques used on the surface of drywall to create a pleasing visual or tactile effect. Depending on your desired outcome, drywall texture can range from incredibly subtle to a focal point of a room. Textures play a significant role in interior design and are an excellent and relatively cost-effective way to change the feeling of a room.

If you already have plaster walls and ceilings, adding new plaster costs $2 to $10 per square foot. For an average-sized room, that would come out to $1,200 to $10,000. However, the cost to replace plaster with drywall is higher—running between $720 and $1,250 for a 10-by-8-foot wall or ceiling (not including drywall finishing).

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. 

Applying spackle is a simple DIY project that most people can complete in just a few hours. Even homeowners who have little DIY experience can complete this project in an afternoon. However, if you're uncomfortable with the project or don't have the time, you can always hire a pro to help.
