"Installed drywall perfectly. Very knowledgeable, and had the ability to create a perfect ceiling texture match. Dealt with two corner sections during replacement, and can't tell a repair happened, looks perfect. Highly recommend this company for repair work."

"...first and foremost, mr gragg is an exceptional person...this was my first time hiring a professional contractor and boy did i hit the jackpot!...i needed a main floor half bath saved (yes, SAVED) in a home i recently purchased...hidden behind the main wall where toilet sat was an aging, damaged sewer line from upstairs...in the process of having that replaced, i became aware of just how much damage had occurred...i had a floor rotted to the point the toilet had sank...i had rotted studs...my walls were original sheetrock with plaster covering it and wire mesh in every corner and they were crumbling from the leak...oh, and the floor joists sloped a half inch...the list goes on and on...i tell you all of this so you can visualize what a daunting task lay ahead!...i don't need to tell you everything mr gragg accomplished to save my half bath, but i will tell you this, i got some new joists, some raised joists (not shimmed for the new floor, new studs with new head and bottom boards, new shored (i think that is the correct word) up edges for new floor, reinforced toilet area, the main wall had all the sheetrock removed and drywall installed, two layers of flooring , then a new waterproof locking vinyl floor and my toilet put back in place...now on to mr gragg's knowledge and skill level: HE KNOCKED IT OUT OF THE PARK!!...need i say more...yes i do, for he is darn near a perfectionist in my book and it shows in the quality of work he puts forth...he gave me options and was straight forward on his recommendations without compromising the intent of the project...on to the cost of this dying bathroom: while i have no prior knowledge of what one considers a "fair" price, i do know this, i got my money's worth!...let's be realistic, we can always get numerous free estimates and base our decision on that or we can accept the fact that we hire a contractor for a reason, we need their expertise and we simply cannot handle the job ourselves...i honestly, truly honestly, believe mr gragg gave me more than what i was expecting at better than expected price...i will never, ever use any other contractor...EVER!!!...finally, you do not want to know how many times i have gone into that bathroom, repeatedly jumped up and down on the floor , just to watch the toilet NOT move"

Drywall questions, answered by experts

It’s highly recommended to use studs for a TV mount. The last thing you want is to be watching your favorite show when the TV falls off the wall. Studs are much stronger than drywall and quite a bit stronger than drywall anchors but, if you can’t find the studs or there simply aren’t any where you need them, you can use drywall anchors. It’s extremely important to make sure the anchors are rated for the load of the TV. We recommend using anchors that are rated far beyond the weight of whatever you’re hanging. Our suggestion is metal drywall toggle anchors. 

There shouldn’t be any gaps between your walls and ceiling. These can be fixed with joint compound but that is only a fix, and it’s much better if your drywall fits correctly in the first place. Sometimes gaps can appear if your foundation shifts significantly but if this is the case, you have a much bigger problem than patching drywall.

You can put certain types of plaster over other types, but doing so isn't always the best idea. For example, putting a coat of gypsum over lime plaster is possible, but doing so will limit the lime plaster's breathability and potentially affect its performance.

Since cement plaster tends to leave a textured surface, no matter how much you smooth it, some people prefer to use gypsum plaster as a topcoat over cement plaster, creating a smoother surface.

Beadboard is a decorative element and lacks the structural integrity of drywall. It cannot hold much weight and is not meant to be used as an insulator or moisture barrier, like drywall is. In almost all cases, beadboard is placed over an existing wall surface which, in modern days, is usually drywall, but decades ago could have been wood paneling.

You should leave a gap between drywall sheets because they naturally expand and contract along with the building framing as temperature and humidity change. Most pro drywall installers leave a gap of about ⅛ inch between drywall sheets, allowing the sheets to expand, contract, and shift without cracking or becoming damaged. If you don’t leave enough gaps between slabs, the edges will press against each other when they expand, and the pressure can cause visible cracks.
