For such a rich subject (to about ½ of 1% of the world!) we will contribute just a couple of notes. Phoenix is quite well known for the quality of its drywall work and a large reason for that is the work that goes into making sure that the studwork to which the sheetrock is attached is perfect before the hanging begins. We always make sure that we have a carpenter on hand to make small adjustments to the framing, to add additional bracing where required and to punch in any nail work that is likely to cause bumps.
The ceiling of the Master Bedroom is a five-panel shape that must be perfect! Note the protection to the windows – care and attention every step of the way.
Different types of drywall are also used in different applications within the home, with mould and moisture resistant board used in the wet areas and fire resistant board in others.
Note the transition from regular drywall above to the moisture resistant sheetrock in the wet areas of the Master Bathroom.
One of the final quality points that we insist on is the use of the No-Coat Structural Laminate Drywall Corner System on all outside drywall corners, the areas that otherwise take a beating from furniture moving, kid traffic and general wear and tear. It is the best system we have ever found and you can learn more by visiting a short and quite interesting video on the product which is linked by clicking this url: http://www.no-coat.com/.docs/pg/10389
