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>

Is it cheaper to shiplap or drywall a fireplace?

• <div><p>It’s less costly to drywall a fireplace than shiplapping it since material costs are higher for shiplap. However, if you’re DIYing the project, shiplap is less expensive since you won’t have to pay for labor. With drywall, getting a smooth finish is difficult unless you’re a pro. Shiplap is ideal for an accent wall or unique space, such as around a fireplace, since it adds texture and gives off a cozy vibe. </p></div>

Q: Are there benefits to choosing eco-friendly drywall materials?

• <div><p>Eco-friendly options reduce environmental impact and often improve indoor air quality.</p></div>

Q: Do walls have to be removed to rewire a house?

• <div><p>In most cases, walls don&rsquo;t have to be removed to rewire a house. Much of the new wiring can be run through attics and crawlspaces, and then electricians often use a tool called fish tape to pull the cables through the walls via cut access points that can be easily patched up without requiring any major demo work.</p></div>

Q: How do you cut drywall without making dust?

• <div><p>There is no way to cut drywall without making dust, but you can reduce the amount of dust and especially the dangerous airborne particles by using manual cutting tools. Using a utility knife to score and snap your drywall will minimize dust production, and a jab saw for cutting cutouts for boxes and fixtures will generate almost no airborne dust. Even if you use these methods, you should still wear a respirator and safety goggles to avoid damage to your lungs and eyes.</p></div>
