DRYWALL

Drywall is a building material made from gypsum (calcium sulfate dihydrate). It is layered and sandwiched between thick sheets of face and backer paper. Drywalls may come plain or with additives that enhance water absorption while reducing flammability and mildew growth.

Lath and plaster had always been the standard materials used in interior walls and ceilings. But drywall replaced it easily because of the following qualities:

• Easy to handle and work with
• More fire-resistant than plaster
• Versatile for decorating
• May reduce sound transmission
• Faster installation – ready in a day or two depending on dimensions of the room where it’ll be installed

Go for drywalls if you want your ceilings and walls to exude a professional look. Even more, drywalls are sturdy enough and will last for years with the right maintenance and care.

You can choose from different types of drywall for your construction projects. Your drywall choice will depend on the place where it’ll be installed and the expected activity in these areas:

• REGULAR DRYWALL – This is paper-covered drywall commonly used in many projects.
• BLUEBOARD DRYWALL – This drywall type has absorptive properties making it a perfect choice for bathrooms and other moisture-rich areas.
• GREENBOARD DRYWALL – It’s called as such because of its green covering. This drywall is water-resistant and is developed for damp and humid areas.
• TYPE X DRYWALL – This is a dense fire-resistant drywall with glass fibers that help it resist fire.
• SOUNDPROOF DRYWALL – A popular choice for music rooms, family rooms, and other places where silence is required. This drywall type is made from a combination of gypsum, polymers, and wood fibers to improve its sound transmission class (STC) rating.

Many do-it-yourself enthusiasts install drywall by themselves thanks to its easy handling and workability. However, you’ll still need a professional to do drywall taping, finishing, and maintenance. It’s a sound idea to place your drywall project in the hands of a capable contractor to avoid problems and issues with drywall installation.
