Green Board (Mold Resistant Drywall)

Green board (mold resistant drywall), is made with a paper backing thicker than regular drywall and coated with wax for extra moisture resistance. It also comes with a fiberglass mesh that is non-organic, removing the food necessary for mold to grow (called paperless drywall). Mold-resistant drywall is most often used in bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms and as a tile backer

Blue Board (Plaster Board)

Blue board(plaster board), is used as a base for plaster applications, much like the lath in lath and plaster walls. Plasterboard requires a thin coat or coats of plaster to be installed over the entire surface. The face paper is absorptive, allowing the plaster finish coat to stick to the drywall better.

Is Drywall Strong Enough?

Drywall is tough, but it’s not indestructible. Over time, Drywall is vulnerable to cracks, dents and holes, but you can easily repair it with drywall joint compound and a little sanding and painting. Fortunately, drywall is easy to repair easy, but there is an art to it.


 

Mudding
 

Our services are available to both residential and commercial clients.
 

“Mudding,” the process of applying multiple thin coats of drywall compound to the joints and screw indentations in newly hung drywall.
 

While professional drywall tapers make mudding look easy, do-it-yourselfers find that it takes practice, skill, and—of course—the right gear (in this case, the mud itself and the tape that prevents cracks from appearing in the seams).
 

We use a variation of tape and mud specific to the job. Our team of professionals know how to and when to use what specific material for the best possible finish.
