What Is Drywall Installation?
Installing drywall (also known as sheetrock, plasterboard, gypsum board, or wallboard) involves four main steps. In order to install drywall in houses correctly, all of these steps must be executed correctly.
1. Measuring
Measuring is the first and most underrated way to cut costs for clients. Determining how much drywall you'll need for the sheetrock can help you save money because we will only quote for the materials we will need for putting up drywall in your home. Moreover, this can help to reduce waste.
2. Drywall Hanging
This process involves putting in drywall and fastening it so it stays in place. During the hanging process, you will see the space transform quite quickly as we work toward achieving your wallboard installation goals!
3. Taping and Mudding
The next stage in the installation process is taping and mudding the wallboards to cover and hide the gypsum boards and give the room a more pleasant look. This process will also offer your walls a degree of fire protection or waterproofing, which is especially important when installing drywall in bathrooms or kitchens.
4. Sanding
Finally, the taped and mudded surfaces will be sanded down to provide a smooth surface. It directly affects the final look and removes any imperfections. Keep in mind that sanding is a messy process, so you can expect to see dust during this stage of plasterboard installation.

Why Hire Drywall Installation Contractors to Handle Your Install?
At this point, you might be wondering, "Can I install drywall myself?" While this is certainly possible, we advise against it. This is because putting up wallboard isn't just time-consuming, but it can also be dangerous if you don't know what you're doing.
You will also need to invest in expensive tools and know what materials to purchase. When it comes to installing sheetrock in your home, there's much to be said about experience. Hiring a knowledgeable and experienced drywall company to handle your residential installation could save you money, time and alleviate stress.
Allowing a professional crew to install new drywall can save you money on supplies. Although you'll have to pay for the labour, the savings in time and materials make it worth it!
Moreover, putting up drywall in a basement or attic may be more difficult than you might expect. This is because gypsum board is very heavy and can pose a challenge, especially if you've never worked with it before. If you have to transport heavy gypsum boards into spaces like basements or attics, you could risk being injured.
Even though some of our clients are fully capable of installing their own drywall, they nevertheless entrust us with the heavy lifting. Drywall installation companies are fully insured in the event of a mishap. They perform this type of work daily, so are better suited than the ordinary homeowner to manage the job.
What Influences the Cost of a Drywall Installation Estimate?
The cost to install a sheetrock ceiling or wall will vary depending on the size of the room or area that requires drywall. Moreover, the shape of the room and the accessibility could also influence the drywall installation cost.
This means that the cost of drywalling a basement can differ from the cost of drywalling a living room wall, simply because transporting materials into and out of the space will require more time and manpower.
Suppose you require specialized drywall, such as fire-resistant or waterproof drywall. In that case, you can also expect to pay more, as these installations require more work, tools, and materials than traditional drywall.
Even though it may cost more initially to hire a contractor than to do the job yourself, sheetrock installers will ensure that the job is done professionally and doesn't fall apart after a few months!
