We have come across a lot of mold  in drywall in our time. How does mold grow or where does it come from?

Mold grows in moist environments and is very common is homes that have experienced flood damage.

A  weird color starts to show on your walls from the mold and even a foul odor. Eliminating mold from drywall, carpets and all other surfaces should be a top priority.

Sheetrock installation isn't for the casual homeowner. Sheetrock can be messy and will  take a big piece of your living space while it is being installed. Hiring a drywall contractor will ensure the work gets completed within a  timely fashion.

A good contractor will require multiple coats for the best result. Like a lot if home improvement projects, a drywall contractor will be able to put a professional touch to the end result. They are in their own way wall artist.

Sometimes we can find the most interesting visitors in a construction site.

In this case we encountered some orbs. Wow, was my first reaction. I  can honestly say in this case I have no idea why there was so many of them. 

Maybe it was a sign saying spray orange peel texture. Sometimes we get to see one or two orbs, but this defenitely got out of hand.

Well whatever the reason was, those orbs left as soon as they finished.

Did you know that San Diego is known for the drywall professionals. As a drywall specialist we recommend that you make sure that the person or company you hire for drywall installation has the experience in the sheetrock install, taping and texturing process. Texturing is the final process to your finished product. Texture may seem to be easy to do, but if not applied correctly may expose your patch or work when the pain is applied. Always make sure the working area is clean before they start, this is to ensure the work to be completed in a timely manner. It says a lot that when the work is finished that the drywall person or drywall contractor doing the work cleans the working area.

This is a question that many people ask and here is the answer. If your drywall repair has a large area to match or if you want a perfect job you can re-texture the entire wall ( that depends on the experience of drywaller). If it's been a while since the wall was painted it should be prepared as you would for painting. The reason for that is to have a clean area of work and to make sure that the over spray is equal through the area that is worked on. So that when you paint the repair after it dries you can also paint the entire wall to have a more even finish.
