What the funk is mudding drywall!?
It sounds painful!
Sometimes we use paper when we are too cheap to plaster it all. Which is now what we have decided to do. Now we just have to find a plasterer who can plaster flatly.
Don't closets move? Are they fixed in place? Damn, life just gets more complex all the time!!
Plaster, is mudding. Drywall is some annoying shit. Basically it's just dry plaster with wallpaper already applied, in sheets, that must be screwed on. Then one must go mud all the screw holes and gaps between sheets, then sand, then mud again, then sand, then paint maybe, if it doesn't need any more mud and sanding, and holy shit is that ever a pain in the ass. Best saved for the professionals.
And I suppose I could move my closets, but I'd have to pick up the whole house. Or maybe knock a wall down, make a new closet, and fill the other up with, a wall; but then I'd have to do frickin drywall again!
Ah drywall, its like palsterboard here! You put it up and have to fill in all the bits from the screws and the gaps between! One of my other rooms needed that fixing and it was a pain in the chuff.
Bring back wood panelling I say! That way yo can just get a beaver into do the work or something
I'm thinking spray foam for the inside of the walls, then a spray covering like that shit they put on ceilings but smooth, then spray paint. Done.
And yeah plasterboard/drywall. Why does a large expanse of water make words different? If I hire someone and he's got your accent, I'll say, "I need drywall in the closet" and he's going to be stuffing plasterboard in the dresser drawers.
Accents can cause a whole lot of issues! If someone told me they needed drywall I would probably be ages in the pharmacist arguing that I needed some, stat!
Spray things are good. If everything in life could be sprayed on I would be a happy man :O)
A happy man with a spray tan from a can.
A spray tan for my van and I will call myself Dan
You'll need to tape those joints and corners!
Down here, they call drywall 'sheetrock'. I don't mess with it anymore, and in fact I tell new painters to never learn how to hang sheetrock or float mud, and if they do I advise them "don't ever tell anyone that you know how to do this". A real genius doesn't know how to do anything, it turns out.
OMG I forgot the taping!
Growing up I heard my relatives calling it gyprock.
And you're right. I'm often dazed and confused for some reason...
