Installing Drywall
In getting ready to hang the drywall for my basement and just need a
few clarifications. I thought you were supposed to butt the sheets together but I have been reading some articles that say to leave a 1/8" gap between them, which is correct? I was planning on hanging the sheets vertically, do you really cut the number of seems in half by going horizontally? Is one better than the other? The walls are 14.3 x 23.7 and 9 feet high( I'm installing a drop ceiling so not going to the top is not a concern) Thanks John |
