Can you remove and reuse drywall anchors?

• <div><p>Whether you can reuse a drywall anchor or not depends on the type. Plastic expansion anchors and plastic self-drilling anchors, which expand once screwed into the wall, are single-use only. You can't straighten and reuse them after removing them from the wall.</p><p>Metal toggle bolts can be reused, provided you can successfully remove the toggle from behind the wall. Once you remove the bolt, the toggle often falls down and can be difficult to retrieve without removing the drywall.</p></div>

Q: What is standard drywall thickness?

• <div><p>Most drywall used for interior walls of homes is <b>1/2-inch thick</b>. This size strikes a balance of being easy to handle and hang while being thick enough for the durability needed on interior wall applications. </p></div>

Q: What corner bead to use for drywall?

• <div><p>Which style of corner bead you choose&mdash;whether metal or paper-faced&mdash;depends on your preference and if you&rsquo;re comfortable using metal-cutting tools and a hammer. Metal bead offers superior strength and durability but its installation is slightly more involved. We&rsquo;d say for most cases, it&rsquo;s better to use metal bead but if you&rsquo;re not comfortable working with metal, paper-faced bead will work just fine. </p></div>

Q: Should you leave a gap between drywall sheets?

• <div><p>You should leave a gap between drywall sheets because they naturally expand and contract along with the building framing as temperature and humidity change. Most pro drywall installers leave a gap of about ⅛ inch between drywall sheets, allowing the sheets to expand, contract, and shift without cracking or becoming damaged. If you don&rsquo;t leave enough gaps between slabs, the edges will press against each other when they expand, and the pressure can cause visible cracks.</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>
