| ONE OF THE MOST COMMON HAZARDS OF FINISHING DRYWALL IS PROTECTING THE REST OF THE HOME THIS WORKING AREA MUST BE SECTORED OFF BEFORE ANY WORK BEGINS. THE ENTIRE WORKING AREA PAPERED OFF AND DROP CLOTHS LAYED ON TOP TO PREVENT TRACKING JOINT COMPOUND OR MUD AS WE CALL IT. AND EVEN THOUGH THERES NO SANDING BEING DONE CUTTING AND HANGING WILL STILL CREATE DUST THAT CAN CIRCULATE THROUGHOUT YOUR HOME. ALL VENTS AND DUCT WORK MUST BE SEALED OFF AS WELL AS ANY OPENINGS IN THE ROOM SUCH AS DOORWAYS OR WINDOWS. TRUST ME WHEN I TELL YOU THAT DUST WILL CARRY THROUGHOUT YOUR HOME BEFORE YOU KNOW IT. |

OUR PROCESS:
AFTER ALL NESSECARY STEPS TO PROTECT THE HOME FROM DUST AND DEBRE HAVE BEEN MET WE START BY HANGING THE DRYWALL. WE DON'T SKIMP ON MATERIALS THE RESEST EGDGES OF A SHEET OF DRYWALL ARE THERE FOR A REASON. WE MAKE SURE OF THE TIGHTEST SEAMS AS TO ASSURE UNSIGHTLY SEAMS LATER. AFTER ALL HANGING HAS TAKEN PLACE NOW WE BEGIN TAPING. THIS REPRESENTS ONE COAT . THEN WE APPLY ANOTHER COAT OF MUD CALLED THE TOP COAT AND THEN THERES A FINISH COAT AND THIS COAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT AS IT WILL RESULT IN THE AMOUNT OF SANDING INVOLVED IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO LIGHTLY SAND BEFORE THE TOP AND FINISH COATS THIS WILL ELIMINATE ADDITIONAL COATS LATER. |
