"I have house that is rental unit on the 2nd floor that was built in 1896. It needed some plastering done to the kitchen ceiling and the living room ceiling in a few areas. It was plastered before, but needed retouching since it was missing something. I searched for a company who does exceptional work with the proof and years of experience. We prefer wet plaster over dry, so did checking and found ZMartin Plastering on Angi. The company had high ratings and the work looked great, so we scheduled Brian Zmuda to come out and look at what needs to be done. Brian came out me out promptly for an estimate and went over what the issues were with the ceiling in both areas and explained it thoroughly so I could understand and told me what materials as far as the paint, plaster, and more and how he was going to do it, and even showed me this insurance and then quoted me a fair price. I was happy and then scheduled him to come out in three weeks. Brian came out three weeks later on 05/23/23 after we were finishing stucco painting and he began to work. I could tell he knew about doing plaster work for an older house. He started with the two ceilings and did it in order and was clean using the right materials. He plastered it well leaving no mess and with wet plaster, and then once he finished he explained that the plaster dry's in less then a week and told me house spot primer first in the area before applying paint which where are doing for the whole apartment's unit. I was happy and knew he was skilled and explained what materials you are suppose to use and he also does stucco is great to know snice we have some stucco repair on our main house to do. I can highly recommend ZMarting for any paltering work and he seems very honest and did not take long so her reduce the price since it was simple job. We will be working with him in the future. His work is fantastic. Could not be any happier."

"Beyond my expectations. I thought this project would generate tons of dust. The workmen that came here was a veteran of drywalling and wall plaster. The job was done in a very efficient manner and did not generate a ton of dust. I was rather blown away by how excellent job it was. I would recommend these guys to anyone. A lot of people say they can do things and they show up and they're not even close the right. These guys showed up and blew me away they were so good"

"Dorian did an excellent job painting the entire interior of my home. His attention to detail was great, and he really cared for his work. He was able to notice any imperfections in the drywall and fix them. He used quality products and paint. He was very professional, and easy to work with. Overall, I am very satisfied with the work that was done and I would definitely recommend them."

"We had 40 yr old wallpaper to be removed & lots of cracks in the plaster. Another contractor told me he would not even take the job. Yoel & his crew are so experienced they did a beautiful job. My plaster walls now look like new. Victor can handle any challenge. They thoroughly cleaned up. Will be using them again for future projects. So glad Angi recommended them"

"Filmom Abraham acted professionally from start to end. He arrived on time and demonstrated sensitivity to customer concerns. I would recommend Filmon at a heart beat. He was also responsive to inquiries that emerged in the middle of the project. He asked questions when in doubt and proposed solutions about things he knows well. He does pay attention to details and he makes suggestions that he feels would improve your home but with out being pushy. Communication with Filmon is easy which is what you want when your house is messy during the painting process especially if you have teenagers!! and a dog! which our our case:))) . Filmon handled all that with grace. I thanks him."

"Juan the lead was very prompt in communications and clear with the estimated work and what was to be done. The completed job has been very well done - repairing ceiling plaster issues, repairing broken plaster around shower supply pipe and fully repainting bathroom. Carefully taped and completed neatly, including careful clean-up. Highly recommended. Will hire again for future painting work. Thank you!"

FAQs for drywall and plastering projects in Chicago, IL

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.
