Advantages and considerations of using drywall

When it comes to renovating a room or remodeling your home, it’s always important to have a game-plan in mind. Smaller decisions like paint colour or furniture placement are just as important to know now, as are larger decisions. Especially when it is something that cannot be changed easily later, such as what building material you plan on using for your walls.

Select Drywall Systems Inc. in Edmonton offers full-services in both drywall and painting for any renovation or remodeling project. They share more about the advantages of drywall and what else to consider when choosing it:

Installation: pros and considerations

When it comes to installing drywall, it is both faster and much easier to install than plaster. Traditional plaster requires someone with the skills and knowledge required to apply the plaster. Drywall, on the other hand, can easily be installed as a DIY project and then finished and taped by a professional. Any cracks or damage to drywall can also be repaired easily and quickly, either professionally or as a DIY. Plus, because the costs of both labour for installation and the material itself are low, it is a very budget-friendly option.

A disadvantage, however, is that the drywall is quite heavy. Lifting and holding ceiling drywall can be a challenge, so it’s best left for the professionals. Drywall is also not flexible, so applying it to any curves may be challenging.

Durability and resistant: pros and consideration

The durability of drywall is not quite absolute because drywall is thinner and has joints, which means dents and holes are more likely. Any damage to drywall though can be easily repaired. Different types of drywall can be installed, each of which will help improve resistance to things such as water or moisture. This is particularly useful if you are remodeling multiple rooms with different purposes.

Blue board and green board drywall are particularly useful in bathrooms or kitchens because they resist water, moisture, and mold. Meanwhile, paperless drywall protects against rot and resists mold and mildew. Read more about the different types of drywall and their uses.
