Q: What is the typical lifespan of a drywall installation?

• <div><p>The average life span for drywall is between 40 and 60 years, although panels can last significantly longer in many cases if it&rsquo;s well-maintained. Of course, many things can reduce the life span of your drywall, including fire, smoke damage, water, moisture, and physical damage, like dents and holes. Thankfully, you&rsquo;re likely to get around 50 years of value out of professionally-installed drywall, making the $2,000 you&rsquo;ll spend on the job well worth it in the long run.</p></div>

Q: Can drywall mudding be done in one day?

• <div><p>Drywall mudding can be done in one day if the project is small and the desired effect isn&rsquo;t too complex. If you need multiple layers of mud, one day may not be realistic. But a single room that requires little more than joint compound on the seams and screws can be done in a day or two.</p></div>

Q: What’s the easiest way to cut holes for electrical boxes in drywall?

• <div><p>The easiest way to cut holes in drywall for electrical boxes is to use a spiral saw with a drywall router bit. Hang the drywall without cutting out a hole for the box, but make sure you measure and mark where the box is located on the wall. Once you screw in the drywall sheet, drill a small hole into the box void, insert the spiral saw bit, and move it around the edge of the box using the inside wall as a guide. You can also use an oscillating multi-tool with an electrical box cutout for fast, professional results.</p></div>

Q: How much does wall installation cost?

• <div><p>Costs range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on size, material, and design complexity.</p></div>

Q: Can I install a TV mount on drywall?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t have studs in the area where you want to install your TV mount, you may still be able to install a TV mount on drywall. The easiest way to install a mount on drywall is by using drywall anchors&mdash;but not just any plastic anchors. Choose molly bolts or toggle anchors, which have a weight capacity of around 50 pounds. For added support, consider pairing drywall anchors with a wall mounting plate. Extra heavy TVs may need to be mounted via the ceiling joists or beams.</p></div>
