Q: Does it matter which side of drywall you use?

• <div><p>Yes, it matters which side of drywall you use. One side is smooth, and the other is rough. The smooth side should be facing outward, toward the room, while the rough side should be hidden and facing the studs and framing of the house. The smooth side will be easier to apply tape, joint compound, and, later, paint to.</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>

Q: Should I sand between coats of drywall mud?

• <div><p>You should do a little bit of sanding between adding coats of mud. Knock down any ridges or significantly imperfect areas through sanding, which should help you apply the next coat of mud smoothly. If your first coat of mud is pretty smooth after it dries, a quick sanding is all you&rsquo;ll need. Don&rsquo;t forget to wipe away any dust after each sanding process.</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>
