I have been servicing the building industry since 1980. I can help with most home improvements. With over 30 years of personal experience of sales and installations of Ceramic Tile and Natural Stone Tile, many other phases of home improvements were either included or supervised by me. My expertise lies in the finished product, yet no finished product can look good for long without all of the sub-structures being constructed properly. I study and follow current building codes that will make the finished product look great and last for many years. With over 30 years experience in home improvements, I can take care of every phase of your project. I know the building business and am good at what I do, where you are good at what you do. I will guide you through the entire home improvement project from drawing up the plans to the final cleaning of the project. If other sub-contractors are needed (major plumbing, major electrical, etc.) I will contact, contract, supervise and be personally responsible for their work on your project. My normal billing procedure is to ask for 1/2 down with any major credit card, check or cash with progress payments until the end of the project. The 1/2 down is to cover materials specifically required for your project and to secure a firm commitment in blocking out the time on my schedule required to get the job done. A majority of my projects involve owners or property management who can not readily visit the property being worked on. To keep people informed and involved. I use the internet to send send proposals, invoices, receive payments, upload CAD drawings and upload progress pictures via email or to a secure website. If there are any questions, concerns or comments about any phase of the project, I try to make it easy to communicate and document my customer's needs. All uploaded photos can have comments on them, and online conversation threads can be created to document everything that is discussed about the project. All of these online interactions are secure and only available to me, my design/quality control staff and you. These interactions can be easily shared by my customer to anyone they wish, anywhere in the world to help guide them through the home improvement process or even boast to the world of the work they are doing to their home. All online sharing permissions are approved by the customer and will not be used by PM Home Improvements for any other reason not previously approved.

While it might be tempting to tackle drywall installation yourself, it's a challenging job best left to the pros. Drywall panels are heavy—each one weighs between 50 and 70 pounds—and handling them safely usually requires at least two people. Professional installers have the experience and equipment to align and secure the panels properly, ensuring a smooth, long-lasting finish that meets all code requirements.
Drywall and plaster are two different materials used for walls and ceilings, each with its own advantages. Drywall consists of manufactured panels that can be installed quickly and offer good insulation. It's generally more cost-effective and is great for straight walls and ceilings.
Plaster is applied in layers over a supportive framework called lath. While it requires more labor, plaster provides a unique, smooth finish that's ideal for curved surfaces and decorative details. Your choice between drywall and plaster will depend on your desired look, durability needs, and budget.
Lightweight drywall panels are about 25% lighter than standard ones, making them easier to handle during installation. This can be helpful if you're doing a DIY project or working in tight spaces. However, they might not offer the same level of durability, fire resistance, or soundproofing as regular drywall. If you're looking for superior protection and a finish that lasts, standard drywall may be the better option for your walls and ceilings.
Professionally installed drywall lasts between 40 and 60 years. Drywall longevity depends on installation quality, maintenance practices, and environmental conditions. High-quality work combined with proper care ensures that drywall performs reliably for decades. Factors such as moisture, fire exposure, and physical damage can affect its lifespan, so regular inspections and timely repairs are essential for extending durability.
You don't need a permit to replace drywall if you're just swapping out old panels without making any structural changes. If you're keeping the wall positions the same and not moving any electrical or plumbing, you can go ahead without a permit. However, if your project involves adding or removing walls or altering the home's infrastructure, you'll likely need to get a permit, which can add $50 to $150 to your costs. It's always a good idea to check with your local building department to make sure you're following the rules.
