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>

Do you need drywall over insulation in a garage?

• <div><p>You do not need to drywall over most types of garage insulation. However, doing so can increase noise reduction, make the space more attractive, and keep children and pets from touching harmful fiberglass insulation. If you’re using cellulose or some other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/blown-in-insulation.htm">type of blown-in insulation</a> (fiberglass and mineral wool are common), you will need drywall to contain the insulation material.</p></div>

Q: Can drywall be installed in an unheated garage?

• <div><p>You can drywall an unheated garage because the material handles cold temperatures perfectly well. There are no risks or downsides to installing drywall in a garage that is not heated, and the material stands up to moisture and other elements quite well. Drywall will protect your unheated garage's electric wires and cables and add fire protection. However, for effective bonding, you should install drywall at a temperature of 55 degrees Fahrenheit or higher.</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: Does wainscoting go over drywall?

• <div><p>Yes, wainscoting is installed directly over drywall. However, ensure the drywall is in good shape since it will support the wainscoting. If the drywall has issues, such as holes, mold, or mildew, repair them before installing the wainscoting. Alternatively, you can install a plywood substrate before attaching the trim. </p></div>

I would not recommend this painter. The owner does not keep track of his team who are inexperienced at best. 4.5 weeks they worked on painting my house and complained to me that I had an *eagle eye* because I constantly found places where they missed or where they rolled too heavy and left...
