Drywall Our Ceiling

Another successful day. Sean and I with Mary's help were able to reach the halfway point with the drywall installation.


Here are a few pictures from today.



We have the drywall stored on the front porch. This makes it very easy to mark and cut the sheets as well as bring them in through the double doors.


If you are planning to do drywall, do yourself a favour and rent a "drywall hoist".  It will save your back and make the job almost enjoyable.


.
This is how easy it works. One person can crank the drywall up and move it into place while a second person simply sits on a ladder and guides the corners into alignment.


Another day and a half and we should be done. 


Any questions?


Thanks for stopping by.
