Q: Is a drywall ceiling or drop ceiling more affordable?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-cost-install-drywall.htm">Installing drywall will cost</a> between <b>$1.50 and $3 per square foot</b> for materials, labor, and finishing, which is quite a bit lower than the average of <b>$9 to $13 per square foot</b> for a drop-tile ceiling. So, while drop ceilings allow more design flexibility, provide easy access to utility lines above them, and are often much easier and less expensive to repair, they do cost more upfront. You can minimize your drop ceiling cost by opting for more affordable fiberboard panels, although some homeowners don&rsquo;t like the look of this material.</p></div>

Q: Can I use wall anchors on any type of wall?

• <div><p>Wall anchors are suitable for drywall and plaster walls, which are common in most homes. However, different wall materials may require specialized anchors. For concrete or masonry walls, you'd typically use concrete anchors. When dealing with other wall types, such as brick or tile, specific anchors designed for those materials may be necessary. Always consult with a hardware specialist or check the manufacturer's recommendations to ensure you select the appropriate anchors for your specific wall type.</p></div>

Q: Can you install tongue and groove over drywall?

• <div><p>Many homeowners choose to install tongue and groove over drywall. The great thing about this type of ceiling is that it hides imperfections. If your drywall is a little bit wonky or has some minor damage, the tongue and groove planks should cover it and give it an even appearance. Installation is simplest if you install battens over the existing framing before installing your tongue and groove planks.</p></div>

Q: How long does thinset take to dry?

• <div><p>The time it takes for thinset to dry is determined by your room&rsquo;s ambient temperature and humidity levels. Assuming the average humidity level is around 40% with an average temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit, thinset can dry within 48 hours. Lower temperatures and higher humidity can extend the curing process beyond 72 hours, while high heat and zero humidity can shorten the curing process. However, thinset can crack if it dries too fast. </p></div>

Q: Should there be a gap between a drywall wall and the ceiling?

• <div><p>There shouldn&rsquo;t be any gaps between your walls and ceiling. These can be fixed with joint compound but that is only a fix, and it&rsquo;s much better if your drywall fits correctly in the first place. Sometimes gaps can appear if your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/8-signs-homes-foundation-trouble.htm">foundation shifts significantly</a> but if this is the case, you have a much bigger problem than patching drywall.</p></div>
