Do I need drywall corners?

• <div><p>It’s a pretty good idea to have drywall corners, also called drywall beading. Drywall is a pretty brittle material and corners tend to be rubbed up against it often. Rather quickly, the edges will start crumbling and you’ll need to replace the entire panel, or add beads on top and repaint the wall. Drywall beads—which are inexpensive—provide long-term support for the drywall and protect your investment.</p></div>

Do I really need drywall anchors?

• <div><p>It depends on the specifics of your project. If you’re using a stud to secure your object to the drywall, you won’t need the extra support of drywall anchors. But if there aren’t any studs in the area where you plan to hang the object, you should use drywall anchors. </p></div>

Q: Do I need drywall corners?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s a pretty good idea to have drywall corners, also called drywall beading. Drywall is a pretty brittle material and corners tend to be rubbed up against it often. Rather quickly, the edges will start crumbling and you&rsquo;ll need to replace the entire panel, or add beads on top and repaint the wall. Drywall beads&mdash;which are inexpensive&mdash;provide long-term support for the drywall and protect your investment.</p></div>

Q: Is drywall finishing a DIY project?

• <div><p>If you're comfortable hanging drywall yourself, you may be comfortable finishing it. But it's worth noting that finishing drywall adds several steps to the process and a lot of waiting time. Hiring a drywall installer may be the way to go if you'd rather spend your time doing other things or are nervous about leaving a rough surface.</p></div>

But if there aren&rsquo;t any studs in the area where you plan to hang the object, you should use drywall anchors. </p></div>

Q: How much weight can a nail in drywall hold?

• <div><p>A nail in drywall cannot hold very much&mdash;usually only a few pounds. A nail in a stud can add support and hold around 20 pounds. If you are trying to hang something heavier, get some help from drywall anchors&mdash;toggle bolts are very strong and able to withstand more weight. </p></div>

Q: Can drywall mudding be done in one day?

• <div><p>Drywall mudding can be done in one day if the project is small and the desired effect isn&rsquo;t too complex. If you need multiple layers of mud, one day may not be realistic. But a single room that requires little more than joint compound on the seams and screws can be done in a day or two.</p></div>

Everything on this project has progressed smoothly from start to the current stage. There were no real hiccups that weren't easily dealt with. A wall was moved, which put a heater vent from inside to outside the bathroom. They simply cut a new hole inside the bathroom, and covered over the old...

Brett did great. He was very good about cleaning up and making sure he didn't get dust everywhere. He worked with me to make decision and took the time to explain the the different options. If we ever needed someone to drywall again we would use him.
