Our drywall installation process in Glenridding Heights, step by step

Ceiling board first — always — in Glenridding Heights homes

Every boarding job in Glenridding Heights starts with the ceiling. Ceiling board goes up before the walls in Glenridding Heights because the wall board butts up under the ceiling board and helps support it. Skipping that sequence means the Glenridding Heights ceiling joints carry their own weight unsupported and are more likely to crack. We do not start Glenridding Heights walls until the ceiling is done. It is a small thing that makes a significant difference in long-term performance.

Wall boarding, screw pattern and joint placement in Glenridding Heights

Wall board goes up with the correct screw pattern — every 12 inches on the field, every 8 inches at the perimeter. All Glenridding Heights seams land on framing, not between studs. Inside and outside Glenridding Heights corners are clean and square. Glenridding Heights board does not run past window and door frames. When the boarding is done in an Glenridding Heights home, every surface is at the right plane and the taping crew can go straight to work.
