What affects the price

Drywall projects vary based on a few main factors. The total square footage, the height of your ceilings, and the level of finish required—like smooth wall versus textured—are the biggest drivers. If your walls have significant water damage or require mold remediation, that adds complexity. Accessibility also matters; tight corners or areas requiring scaffolding take more time than open rooms. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Frequently asked in Aurora

What's the best way to spackle small holes in drywall?

For small nail holes or minor dents, spackle is a go-to solution. Apply a small amount of spackle with a putty knife, pressing it into the hole and smoothing it flat with the wall. Once it's completely dry, lightly sand the area until it's smooth. For larger holes, a drywall patch might be needed. The specialist can advise on the best method.

How do you properly sand drywall?

Proper drywall sanding involves using a sanding pole or block with medium-grit sandpaper. You'll sand after each coat of joint compound has dried. The goal is to smooth out any ridges or bumps without oversanding the paper. Light, even pressure is key. After sanding, wipe away all dust with a damp cloth. This prepares the surface for the next step.

What kind of drywall nails are used?

While screws are more common for hanging drywall today, nails were historically used. These are specifically called drywall nails. They have a thin shank and a large, flat head designed to sink into the drywall surface without tearing the paper. The crew that comes out will likely use screws for their superior holding power and to prevent popping.

What are the considerations for drywall on ceilings?

Drywall ceilings require careful installation due to gravity. Thicker drywall, like 5/8 inch, is often used for ceilings to prevent sagging. Proper support from ceiling joists is crucial. The specialist will ensure the sheets are securely attached and feathered correctly at the joints. This prevents visible seams and ensures a smooth, flat ceiling finish.

How is mudding done on drywall?

Mudding involves applying joint compound (mud) over drywall seams, corners, and screw or nail indentations. Multiple thin coats are applied, allowing drying and sanding between each. The first coat fills the gaps, subsequent coats feather the compound wider to create a smooth transition. The specialist aims for an invisible seam once painted.

What is a good drywall patch for a small hole?

For small holes, a self-adhesive mesh patch is often effective. You center the patch over the hole and then apply joint compound over it, feathering the edges. Multiple coats are usually needed to blend the patch seamlessly with the surrounding wall. The specialist will ensure the patch is undetectable after finishing.

What are essential drywall repair tools?

Essential tools include a utility knife for cutting drywall, a drywall saw for precise cuts, and a variety of putty knives and drywall knives for applying compound. A sanding pole or block is needed for smoothing. For larger jobs, a drywall screw gun and a mud pan are also very useful. The crew that comes out has all the necessary equipment.
