The Difference Between Drywall and Plastering

Drywall doesn't crack when properly installed. It is made out of softer material called gypsum. Drywall is installed in sheets that are nailed into the wood studs of a house. Plaster dries much harder than drywall. It is more labor-intensive and expensive to install, but it does have its advantages.

The Benefits of Installing Plaster

if you are questioning whether to apply plaster or drywall to your walls or ceiling, the professionals at Two Cousins Painting Company Inc. can help choose the best materials for your interior. Plaster is inherently more durable than drywall. Plaster provides better insulation, which results in lower heating and cooling expenses. It also outperforms drywall in terms of safety. It has better fireproofing and soundproofing properties. Finally, it inhibits mold growth. If any of these properties are important to you, choosing to pay a bit more to have Two Cousins Painting Company Inc. install plaster will be money well spent.

Two Cousins Painting Company Inc.'s Plaster Process

Both an art and a science, plastering requires a master tradesman to perfect. Two Cousins Painting Company Inc.'s talented plaster application specialists are skilled in the installation of conventional plaster. The process of plastering interior walls and ceilings often begins with a lath coat, where wooden laths are tacked into the studs. Next, a brown coat of wet plaster is applied fine sand is added to provide a gripping surface that is ready to accept the final coat. The white coat or lime coat is the final coat of the project.  The finish coat provides a smooth and shiny finish that can then be painted.
