"Micah and his helpers are THE BEST and the most HONEST workers one can hire. Not only are they REALLY good and true experts in their carpentry, painting, flooring, remodeling in their inside and outside work, they are the cleanest workers we have ever had. Each day at the end of their work, they clean up and make neat their equipment. Even when they did our remodeling on the outside siding, not a nail was left on the ground that anyone or animal could get hurt with. On that big outside siding job, they showed amazing creativity and expertise. No where could be found siding to match our house, so they made the siding themselves and painted them to match exactly the other sides of the house. They are the nicest people to have around as they work--friendly, kind, and thoughtful. Their price is very fair too. They begin on the expected day and they arrive always on time. They work consistently until the job is done, which is always accomplished with customer's satisfaction . We cannot say enough praise for Micah and his crew. We have now used them for years because no matter the size of the project ( we have used them for the above tasks), they have ALWAYS done a TRULY great job. They are a blessing to anyone who is hires them."

Drywall installations FAQs
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.
