"During the crazy winter, we had a water pipe burst in our old house, circa 1850. Once the pipes were repaired and water-damaged walls and ceilings were removed, John took care of all the plastering repairs. He was so prompt with his replies, easy to schedule, showed up when he said he would, and did such excellent work. Not only that, he was a pleasure to have around -- so friendly and kind!"

"John gave me an estimate over the summer after letting me know his schedule wasn't open until fall. After looking at the sagging plaster ceilings in our 1920s house, he recommended covering with drywall, and he did the work in December. John and his colleague did two ceilings in 4 days (about 700 square feet total) and they are a huge improvement. We're already planning to hire him again!"

"I called Ferraz to hang new drywall and plaster the walls of bedroom in a rental apartment. Ferraz give me a quick estimate (he actually picks up the phone!) and was cheaper than 2 others that called. He was able to do my job quickly (in and out in one day) and cleaned up after themselves. His workers were very respectful. I will definitely be calling them for my plaster work again!"

"Our family did a huge addition with a family basement(playroom) living room/dining room & master bedroom. Colin McCarthy's plastering was truly excellent!! He even did venetian plastering on my dining room ceiling. My husband & I were SO impressed by his work/work ethic. He was prompt, highly efficient & left the house clean every day. We enthusiastically recommend McCarthy plastering for ANY home remodeling!"

"Mark Marenghi and Frank are exceptional professionals. They worked diligently, were on-time, right on the cost estimate, and delivered a quality work product which exceeded all expectations. They were also very accommodating to an interested, inexperienced homeowner with a number of questions and periodic interruptions. It was an absolute pleasure to trust them with this challenging plastering repair work on a historic house."

"Berty did a fantastic job!  Very knowledgeable, he advised us as to the best options for our project in our budget  and we are glad we listened to him.   Very professional!  He arrived on time, completed the project on time as promised.  Was understanding when we needed to change the date and was able to work around our schedule. Very neat, the kitchen was left clean, did a good job sealing off the room so other rooms would not be affected  by dust. Pleasant to work with and a reasonable price for the quality of work. We will never go to another plasterer for our future renovation needs. The walls and ceiling look amazing!   We had another contractor come in to look at another project and the first thing he said when he saw Berty's work was "Well you got someone who knew what they were doing!"  My husband said he wishes he were around to see how he did it, the walls and ceiling were so uneven to start and when he was done everything was so even. They look beautiful now!  He did an awesome job! Highly recommend!  If you want a job well done, call Berty now!

"Their work was excellent. Only issue we had was the scheduling. I had a ceiling installed in the bathroom. Day one, carpenter did his framing and the 2 workers stated I would be called to set a time. However they were at the door at 8am. They were 45 minutes early the first day (7:15am) and I never even met Marcio for the initial inspection. He came early and my partner let him in. The painters painted the ceiling but went down onto the wall though I told them they didn't need to since it was not in the contract. They apologized and painted all the bathroom walls in return. I like these guys. They are fast, responded right away and did great work. They just need to communicate between themselves and Marcio a little better. Schedule issues were minor for me- I'm retired. If you need good work done quickly--I highly recommend them. The price was very reasonable, response time was fast , they cleaned up nicely and everything finished in 3 days: frame, drywall/plaster and paint. I would hire them again."

"ERG were excellent to work with. They were incredibly responsive and adjusted our quote to meet our exact needs. The finished work is excellent. We had them hang drywall, paint, and install shelving in three of our closets and replace the ceiling in a small office. Their work is top notch and working with them was a breeeze."

"Very pleased with NE Plastering and Painting. From the prompt response to the demolition and removal of water damaged dry wall and insulation , the restoration of new insulation and dry wall and the seamless final plaster finish on the wall. Trash was disposed and the work area was kept clean at all times. Would use NE Plastering again."

FAQs for drywall and plastering projects in Boston, MA

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.
