Choosing the Right Drywall Contractor for Your Project

Correct installation of drywall is very important for finishing walls and ceilings. This is why choosing the right contractor for drywall projects is critical. In today’s blog article, we want to touch on how to choose the right drywall contractor for your projects.

Experience

The first consideration is experience. Is the drywall contractor experienced with projects similar to yours, for example, residential and commercial.

Insurance and Licensing

Before hiring any contractor, you want to be reassured that the contractor has the correct licensing to perform the work you are hiring him or her for and insurance. You want to be sure that contractors are covered by Worker’s Compensation in the event of an accident while working on a project.

Drywall finishing is a red seal trade. So, you may want proof that your drywall contractor has people certified to work on drywall.

Portfolio

Does your drywall contractor have a portfolio so he or she can show you examples of previous work. The last thing you want is a fly-by-night operation that just arrived in town and you are the first client that the company ever had.

Materials

There are different types of drywall for different applications. Your drywall contractor should be able to easily discuss these with you, and how the contractor is choosing a specific type of drywall for your application.
