        "text": "Yes, bare drywall must be primed before painting to seal the porous paper and joint compound. If you apply finish paint directly to bare sheetrock, the porous surface absorbs the binder unevenly, leading to a patchy, dull finish and peeling over time. As a full-scope remodeling contractor, HH Remodeling LLC uses specialized PVA or stain-blocking primers to establish an even foundation. This step ensures that subsequent coats of durable interior latex paint adhere properly and produce a uniform, long-lasting appearance across your garage walls and ceiling.",
