Installing drywall or sheetrock?

Drywall is a building material commonly used to cover interior walls. It is made of sheets of compressed gypsum covered on both sides by thick paper; it is installed on interior ceilings and walls. Drywall comes in a variety of thicknesses and sizes. There are also different edge treatments, core additives and paper coatings available. Drywall protects the electric wiring and utilities in your home by covering them. It also insulates your home from temperature fluctuations and sound. Other names for drywall are sheetrock, gypsum, gypsum wallboard, and wallboard.

The basic installation process includes the following steps:

  1. Prepare and plan. Measuring the space to determine the type and number of sheets, planning cuts, and preparing ceiling and wall surfaces are important to a successful installation.
  2. Measure again and cut.
  3. Hang and secure drywall.
  4. Cut out marked openings for electrical outlets, light switches, and other fixtures.
  5. Apply tape and joint compound.

Installing drywall is hard work. A professional installer has the tools and expertise to install your drywall project quickly, with a minimum of waste, giving you surfaces ready to be finished with your choice of wall treatment.
