Drywall is actually the panel installed on the roof, walls, and to close any openings. The method is to simply use plaster or compound, pressed between paper. Some other terms which are used very often for the drywall can be listed as wallboard, gypsum board, and plasterboard. However, the sheet comes in different sizes with varying thickness with the purpose of soundproofing, cover the walls which are already existing, and the least thick to create arches and curves. When you hire roofing contractors in NYC, they start the process of hanging a drywall with the covering of plumbing and electrical lines to prevent accidental drilling. At first, they start applying adhesive to studs which are designed to hold the drywall. It is applied in various parts or sheets which are held and placed along the corner to hang with studs. Make sure you mark each panel of the drywall sheet for better installation alongside and fix them using ring drywall nails for enhanced friction. Placing sheets one after the other, the studs are used to mark the position of nails.
During the installation of sheets, it is very important that you should mark the area of electrical boxes but this job must be done after cutting off the supply. Similarly, for the walls, you can cut out the area using a saw and it is necessary that you should prevent bringing joints at the door or window placement. Once done with hanging, the process of applying the compound is started. The first coat is applied to cover the tape which is used on joint, while the edges are feathered during the second coat so that it goes well along the wall. The process is done in three coating to completely hide the joints, screws and any unwanted edges or corners. In the final coat of the compound, any marks of the tools could be seen after a proper smoothening using a sandpaper is done. Followed by this, the professionals go for a skim coat and two layers of paint to give the final touch after priming the entire surface of the drywall.
