Standard 1/2” drywall — the right choice for most Inglewood walls

Most interior walls and ceilings in Inglewood homes use standard 1/2” board.

Drywall installation work we do in Inglewood

Full basement boarding in Inglewood homes

The most common boarding call in Inglewood is full basement installation. The builder framed the space; the homeowner is ready to finish it. We hang the ceiling board first — always — then the walls, with moisture-resistant board on all exterior foundation walls. We use the correct screw pattern, land all seams on framing, and cut around mechanical chases and bulkheads cleanly. When the boarding crew leaves an Inglewood basement, the taping crew can start without rework.

Boarding to a premium standard in Inglewood

Inglewood homeowners expect the boarding to match the quality of the rest of the home. We hang board level and flush, use the correct screw pattern throughout, land all seams on framing and cut corners and archways cleanly. The taping crew gets a surface they can work to Level 4 or Level 5 without fighting the boarding behind it.

Why Inglewood homeowners trust Emplastrum for drywall installation

Boarding done right means the finish can be done right in Inglewood

The quality of a Level 4 wall finish starts with the boarding behind it. In Inglewood, off-level board, floating seams or sparse screws hand the taping crew a fight. We board every Inglewood job the way a taping specialist would want it boarded — because we are the taping specialist. When we finish the boarding, we can finish the taping to Level 4 without fighting the installation underneath.
