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>

Are plaster walls better than drywall?

• <div><p>Drywall installation is considerably faster and more affordable than plastering. Because plastering involves applying a wet material, it’s more time-consuming, takes longer to dry, and is more prone to cracking. It doesn’t tend to be as insulative either. If you need resurfacing work done on the walls, it's not unusual for the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-plaster-walls.htm">cost of plastering</a> to hit $10 per square foot, which is much higher than the drywall installation costs of $1.50 to $3 per square foot.</p><p>If you’re looking for good soundproofing and want a high-end look in a historic home, though, plastering may be the better option.</p></div>

How can I save money on drywall installation?

• <div><p>You can take a few steps to save money on drywall installation, even when hiring a professional to do the bulk of the work for you. These ideas include the following:</p><ul><li><p>Buy the drywall and other materials yourself to avoid product markup and delivery fees</p></li><li><p>Ask about discounts if you use the same company to tape, spackle, and paint</p></li><li><p>Hire drywall professionals in the winter when demand is the lowest</p></li><li><p>DIY as many parts of the project as possible, like replacing insulation and painting</p></li></ul><p></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: 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>

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>

Joel did a wonderful job. Not only does it look beautiful, he kept in touch with us as to when he would arrive each morning and let us know if there was a delay. He also pondered a humidity problem and arrived at a solution. I highly recommend him.

Dan and his team were great in helping to design a solution to ceiling, wall, and cabinet damage caused by years of leaking roof/plumbing vents. They were respectful, responsive, and knew how to get the job done for a reasonable price.
