Can the taping crew start right after you board an Sifton Park home?

Gapping at the floor and around openings

Board should not touch

A small gap at the slab or subfloor keeps board from wicking moisture and gives the building room to move.

Around windows and doors

Joints are kept away from the corners of openings, because a joint that lines up with a corner is exactly where an Sifton Park house concentrates movement and where cracks appear first. It costs an offcut and saves a callback.
