"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

Plaster ceilings can sag for several reasons. In some cases, the plaster and other building materials shift and come apart over time, which is why you’ll commonly find drooping plaster ceilings in older homes. Improper installation, foot traffic, and water damage—often from a leaky roof or a broken pipe—can also cause plaster ceilings to sag.

On average, drywall installation costs around $2,000, with a typical range of $400 to $6,000, including materials and labor. The final price depends on several factors. The most significant is the size of the area, as many contractors charge per square foot. Other cost factors include the complexity of the job (e.g., cutting around multiple windows and doors, corners, or curved walls), accessibility, location, the thickness of the drywall, the height of the room, and the desired level of finish. The level of finish can range from simply hanging the drywall to taping and mudding the seams and painting the walls.

Plaster that sags or bulges, shows extensive deep cracks, or is crumbling from water damage or simply time may need replacement. Plaster walls can look a little “worn” for a long time before they need replacing. The only real way to know if it needs a replacement is to hire a professional to assess the condition of the plaster.

You can drywall an unheated garage because the material handles cold temperatures perfectly well. There are no risks or downsides to installing drywall in a garage that is not heated, and the material stands up to moisture and other elements quite well. Drywall will protect your unheated garage's electric wires and cables and add fire protection. However, for effective bonding, you should install drywall at a temperature of 55 degrees Fahrenheit or higher.

Popular wall textures include orange peel, knockdown, spray sand, and smooth finishes. Orange peel and knockdown are particularly common choices for drywall as they are simple and cost-effective. Orange peel texture has a lightly bumpy surface resembling the skin of an orange, while knockdown (sometimes called knockout) looks like a stucco finish with flattened high spots. In contrast, popcorn texture has fallen out of fashion, partly due to its past association with asbestos and a shift toward more restrained interior design styles.
