Can textured walls be smoothed?

• <div><p>Certain drywall textures, like sand and sometimes popcorn, can be smoothed by applying skim coats, sanding the walls, or chipping away the texture. However, it’s worth considering removing the texture and starting with a blank canvas. Smoothing textured walls requires a lot of sandpaper and elbow grease and can take longer than just outright removing the texture. </p></div>

What are two common mistakes made during drywalling?

• <div><p>Two of the biggest mistakes with drywalling are not measuring (and therefore buying the wrong amount of drywall) and trying to install drywall yourself. A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-a-sheet-of-drywall-weigh.htm">sheet of drywall can weigh</a> around 50 pounds, so it can be difficult to install without a pro or at least some experienced friends willing to help with a DIY installation. It can also get expensive if you don’t measure at least twice before buying the drywall sheets. </p></div>

Q: Do grab bars need to be installed in studs?

• <div><p>For maximum stability, install grab bars on wall studs, as this will adequately support the weight. However, if you don't have access to studs, you can get by with wall anchors. If opting for the latter, choose specialty hollow wall anchors. </p></div>

Q: What factors affect wall installation costs?

• <div><p>Costs depend on material type, labor rates, and additional features like decorative finishes or reinforcement.</p></div>

Q: Do you have to replace drywall after water damage?

• <div><p>Drywall can get wet and dry out without sustaining permanent damage, but only if the water damage is minor. If you have a small leak and are quick to correct the issue and set up blower fans and dehumidifiers, your drywall should dry out. If the leak is persistent, the drywall becomes totally waterlogged, or mold begins forming on the drywall, you should remove and replace it.</p></div>
