Drywall Information:
Standard drywall comes in 4' by 8' sheets although 4' by 12' drywall sheets are also available. The 4' by 8' drywall sheets are preferred by most due to the
more manageable size.The 4' by 12' sheets are simply "beasts" to move around!
The common thickness of drywall is 1/2" or 5/8". 1/2" is usually used on walls and 5/8" is used on ceilings for 24 inch on center studs. Always check your
local building codes!
There is standard drywall, and what is commonly called "green board". The "green" drywall is more moisture resistant and should be used in bathrooms and
areas of moisture. There is also a brand new mold-resistant drywall that will hit the market soon.
For bathtub areas don't use drywall! Instead use a concrete-based "rock board" with ceramic tile installed over. The same goes for kitchen sink areas. You
may, however, apply tile to primed drywall in non-moisture areas.
Sheetrock repairs
Many older homes have cracked and damaged sheetrock walls or ceilings due to water intrusion and movement from settling. We offer drywall repairs using
the best available products and procedures.
Upgrade to Plaster-The Superior wall surface...beautiful, durable, affordable!
Sheetrock requires several applications of soft, easily damaged joint compount, with each layer needing sanding before it is ready to paint. Why not
plaster? One coat of veneer plaster can be troweled over sheetrock, it sets hard and smooth, and requires no sanding. In addition, the skilled application of
plaster can make the remodel blend seamlessly into the existing structure.
Tinted Plaster
Plaster can be tinted any color to offer a cost effective and beautiful alternative to paint. Finely honed trowel techniques give subtle variations in color and
texture to your wall surfaces; paint looks flat and dull by comparison. Beautiful new plastered walls without the cost, hassle and fumes of paint - it's an easy
choice!
Venetian plaster
Venetian plaster is made from aged lime and ground marble. The final application is burnished to a lustrous sheen transforming walls into works of art. It has
the look and feel of polished marble.
Note: Various paint manufacturers offer products called Venetian plaster. They contain polymers and additives and are in no way comparable to the real
thing. True Venetian plaster is pure, organic, and has no VOC's.
