WHAT IS DRYWALL

Drywall/Sheetrock/wallboard a material that’s most commonly used to build interior ceiling and walls in new residential and commercial buildings. Drywall or wallboard is most often made from gypsum, (a natural mineral) which has plaster and Lime added for strength. Drywall repairs should be done as soon as you notice any cracks or holes to avoid mold growth. The longer these are allowed to exist, the more difficult they will be to fix later on and may even require a greater expense than if they were repaired early. Drywall is designed to be strong, durable, and easy to work with on large scales. However, Drywall can be damaged easy which means that it may start cracking over time due to faulty Install, accidents, exposure to water and high-temperature levels.
