Drywall Finishing Options
Drywall Finishing Choices: Achieving the Perfect Wall Surface
Drywall is a versatile and affordable material used in most homes. It is a relatively inexpensive and easy-to-install material that can be used to create walls, ceilings, and partitions.
Once the drywall is installed, the next step is to finish it. This involves applying a joint compound, also known as "mud," to the seams and joints between the drywall sheets. The mud is then sanded smooth to create a seamless surface.
There are a variety of different drywall finishing choices available. The most common type of drywall finish is called a "smooth" finish. This type of finish is created by applying multiple coats of mud and sanding each coat smooth.
Other types of drywall finishes include:
Skim coat: This type of finish is applied in a very thin layer to create a perfectly smooth surface.
Knockdown: This type of finish is created by applying a thick layer of mud and then "knocking down" the peaks with a tool.
Orange peel: This type of finish is created by applying a thick layer of mud and then spraying it with a special tool.
Popcorn: This type of finish is created by applying a thick layer of mud and then spraying it with a special tool.
The type of drywall finish that you choose will depend on your personal preferences and the style of your home.
Energy Efficiency
The type of drywall finish you choose can also affect the energy efficiency of your home. A smooth finish can help to reflect light and heat, which can help to keep your home cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
