Common questions

Is there a difference between drywall and sheetrock?

You might hear 'drywall' and 'Sheetrock' used interchangeably, but Sheetrock is actually a brand name for drywall panels. Think of it like 'Kleenex' for tissues. Both refer to the gypsum panels used to create interior walls and ceilings, offering a smooth surface for finishing and painting. We work with all types to achieve your desired look.

Can I do drywall sanding myself in New Mexico?

While you can attempt drywall sanding yourself, achieving a perfectly smooth, dust-free finish can be challenging, especially with New Mexico's dry air causing rapid drying. Professional sanding requires specialized tools and techniques to ensure an even surface and minimize airborne dust, crucial for a flawless paint job in your Las Cruces home.
