"We are extremely pleased with the work from the Dowell's.  They are very professional, the prices are fair, they show up when they say,  they clean up after themselves, their work is meticulous.   We live in a 1920's home and will definitely be using them to renew and repair our first floor plaster ceilings and walls in the next year or so.

"This was the 2nd time, years apart, Nation's has worked at my house. Richard, the owner, was quick to respond & make an appointment to see the requested work. The cost was very reasonable & on target with my budget. Areas of work: drywall 3'x4' hole in bdrm from plumbing repair; same in upstairs btrm; drywall & repair above patio doors; repair/redo btrm ceiling & added swirl; drywall/patch basemt stairwell walls. All finished work is flawless with new & old blending well. Both plaster walls & drywall walls were involved in work. With all work required, it was done quickly(3 days), All paste, dry time & sanding was contained. Once an area was finished, Joe completely cleaned it. Nation's Drywall will do amazing work for you as they did for me - give 'em a call!"

"The guys were great from start to finish the communication and the great estimate from Pete and his son I didn’t need a 2nd opinion from anyone else. I will definitely hire S&S again for other projects plus I referred them to others that desperately needed an honest company BBB accredited plus great references. I give them 5 stars plus 👍"

"I chose Carico Drywall because of his attention to detail, the fact he came out to give me an estimate, and the fact that he uses Union Drywall Installers. He was my 3rd bid in my buildout for my garage, and he was the highest bid by far. But the fact that he came to my house, met with me, explained and asked good genuine questions proved to me that he was the correct person to do the job. My garage is 1500sqft (30 ft deep , 50 ft wide) ceiling height is 18ft. At the peak, its roughly 22ft. I used R21 batting in the walls and 6 to 7 inches of open cell spray foam in the ceiling. The shop was drywalled with 5/16 inch drywall, no real need for anything thicker since the insulation keeps most sound dampened. I didnt tackle the drywall, because I felt like that would have taken me forever. Would i recommend Carico to do more projects? Yes I would."

Customers say: True professional

"First Eric made sure the problem was solved (I had vents installed in the roof), then they removed all the damp plaster and Eric came back numerous time to make sure the walls were dry enough to continue. His crew came back and did a great job and cleaned up all the mess. His office staff always answers the phone and relays questions and we are now ready to paint!"

FAQs for drywall and plastering projects in University City, MO

Load-bearing walls support the weight of your home's structure, including floors, roofs, and other building components. Non-load-bearing walls, on the other hand, serve only as partitions or room dividers. All exterior walls are typically load-bearing, even if they have design features like bump-outs or large glass panels. These walls need precise construction to ensure your home's structural integrity.

Removing a wall costs anywhere from $300 to $10,000 , depending on the size and whether it's load-bearing. Removing load-bearing walls is a more labor-intensive process and typically costs more. To get an accurate estimate for your project, consult a local contractor with the specifics of your wall.

Yes, there are other projects you can tackle at the same time when building a wall. Upgrading to energy-efficient windows or doors can enhance your home’s sustainability and can be integrated into the wall construction process. You might also consider removing existing walls to create an open-concept layout or building a home addition for extra space. Coordinating multiple projects can be cost-effective and streamline your renovation timeline. Discuss your goals with a contractor to help you plan effectively and maximize the benefits of your renovation.

The cost to build a partition wall varies depending on the size and type you choose. Half walls that don't reach the ceiling cost about $10 to $20 per linear foot . Full partition walls made with drywall may cost more due to additional materials and labor. Prices for accordion or panel walls vary widely based on materials and design. Factors like electrical work, insulation, and finishes will also influence your total cost.

Framing is the backbone of wall construction, creating a secure structure that supports everything else. Quality framing ensures that studs, electrical wiring, and plumbing are properly integrated into your home's design. A professional installer uses reliable materials like wood or metal to build a framework that meets building codes and ensures your wall is durable and safe.
