Types of Drywall used by us

White Board Drywall

It is the most common type used. It’s also called regular Drywall for this reason. They are available in 4 by an 8-foot panel with thickness ranging from 3/8 inches to one inch.

How to Install Drywall?

First of all, we measure the area and determine the number of sheets required. Then the process can be divided into three main steps:

Cutting

After taking the measures, we mark on the sheet the places where the sheet is to be cut. We use Drywall saw to make the cuts while working. Though the process is a bit time taking it ensures efficiency and less wastage. Spaces for electrical outlets and light switches are cut using a keyhole saw, and a circle cutter is used in case of curved spaces.

Hanging

Drywall sheets are attached to the wood or metal studs. In the case of metal studs, sheets are hanged vertically, and in the case of wood studs, sheets are hanged horizontally. Then drywall screws are placed about every four inches using a screw gun. This attaches the sheets to the studs. In the case of wood studs, drywall adhesive is applied to studs to prevent deflection.

Blue Board Drywall

Commonly used for veneer plastering, it is also called plaster baseboard. Its high resistance for water and mold makes it much better than green board drywall. Being moisture resistant, it is well suited for bathrooms or places with high moisture, and it also helps in reducing noise.

Paperless Drywall

Sometimes paper drywall leads to the rotting of the gypsum board, which in turn ruins the Drywall. To conquer this issue, we use fiberglass covered drywalls, which protect the gypsum board from rotting and provide greater resistance to mold and mildew.

Purple Drywall

Similar to regular Drywall, it provides much greater resistance to moisture and mold. It finds applications on the wall and ceiling where high resistance towards moisture and mold is required.

Type X Drywall

Normally used in garages, rooms, and apartment buildings, it is also called fire-resistant Drywall. It is made of special non-combustible fibers. Its thickness is 5/8 inches usually. But it’s extra thickness also improves soundproofing characteristics.

Soundproof Drywall

As the name suggests, it is used in places where noise causes problems, and silence is required. With an increased sound transmission class, a mix of wood fibers, gypsum, and polymers is made up. Its thickness is much more than regular Drywall.
