Are you building or remodeling a house for your next project?
Are you building or remodelling a house or a commercial building? And are you thinking of how the best way to decorate its interior will be? Your first choice should be drywall! Drywall is made of plates of calcium sulphate dihydrate which is also known as gypsum which has been around since the 1950s.
There are several reasons why you should choose a drywall company to repair or remodel your space. One of the reasons is the professionalism showed by such companies; the second reason is time management. If you are not a professional, or lack the skills and knowledge required, then it may take you longer and more money than it would cost to just have hired a professional in the first place. There are many more reasons why you should choose your local drywall repair company, but that will be on another article. Below we will show you some of the uses of drywall:
Uses of drywall
1. Beautification. Drywall, as stated earlier is used to beautify the interior of a house. There are various shapes and thickness for this purpose.2. Moisture resistance. Moisture resistant drywall, usually with a blue or green paper face is designed to resist moisture. Hence, its usage is most suited for the cover of bathroom. It could also be used at the bottom four feet of a laundry; as well as the back of a sink in the kitchen. It should not be used in high moisture areas such as shower enclosure or the wall just above the bath tub.
3. Sound absorber. Let's say the building will be used for sound production; the last thing you will want are echoes and reverberation. The five-eight-inch regular drywall is well suited for this application. It also has a good fire resistant ability.
4. Fire resistant. The quarter-inch regular drywall when placed over each other is particular suited for this purpose. It has the ability to contain fire for a moment. The half-inch panels can hold for 45 minutes, the five-eight inches can hold for 60 minutes while the three-quarter inches can hold for 120 minutes.
Improper use of drywall will arise when it is wrongly applied, which is a strong reason for you to choose a drywall company in Nanaimo, British Columbia to install drywall on your behalf. If a moisture resistant drywall is used perhaps because of its colour in a room where sound is to be created, then there will be a problem.
Drywalls get damaged over a period of usage; it could also get damaged for various other reasons such as manufacture defect, during transportation or poor handling by installers or yet applied wrongly. Using drywall makes Drywall repair and perhaps remodelling much easier as you would basically switch out the pieces that need repairing.
