Whether you choose drywall or plaster for your home, have the professionals at Mario Brothers Home Improvement take care of the job for you.

Drywall:

  • Advantages – Less expensive while also providing options for insulation making drywall the more energy efficient option. While labor intensive it takes less time to hang than plaster.
  • Disadvantages – Drywall isn’t a very good sound barrier and is more labor intensive.

Plaster:

  • Advantages – Plaster is the more high-end option and can add more personality to the home. It is more sound-resistant which can be very beneficial with children.
  • Disadvantages – The process for hanging plaster is labor intensive and may not afford the opportunity for insulation making the utility bills a little higher. Whereas drywall has sheets to hang, plaster requires special training and skills.
