"The drywall repair in the ceiling turned out great. Mike did a great job of matching the texture. He also insulated a duct that was causing the condensation problem. He is very conscientious about his work."

"I highly recommend Donald of Cantrell Painting for your painting and drywall needs. He always shows up on time and is a man of his word. I really liked how he explained how he would do the job and the way he communicated throughout the project. He has great attention to detail and is a stickler for cleaning up after his work. I will be hiring Donald again for future projects including solid wood door staining, inside and outside painting, and refinishing kitchen cabinets. Excellent, excellent work."

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

New plaster must be fully dry and cured before painting. The drying time for plaster ranges from 1 to 4 hours, but the curing process can take more than five days, depending on various factors, including humidity levels, temperature, the amount of plaster used, and airflow in the area. You should always apply primer before painting plaster.

Most load-bearing walls are exterior, though they can also be interior.

The cost to skim coat drywall is $1.15 to $1.35 per square foot. Most of the cost is labor, for the necessary skills to apply the skim coat with precision using high-quality tools. This is a job better left to the professionals for the best outcomes.

Yes, you can hammer a nail into a wall stud. But before you do, it’s important to confirm that you’re actually nailing into a stud—and not wiring, pipes, or ductwork. To check, find a few more studs in the wall, then measure to make sure they’re either 16 or 24 inches apart.
