      It escalates so rapidly. All started at our house with wanting a sliding glass door... which meant moving the electrical box, but while we are at it, we should upgrade the electrical, and while we do that...we wanted to dig a new trench for the electrical line since we were digging up the patio and the old line was well entangled in tree roots. ...but when I sit on my couch where the garage and chicken coop used to be, we can see mountains. (I still need to finish painting tho)
      This was out we started getting rid of all the aluminum wiring. Tore apart the whole house and are slowly putting it back together with confidence levels on par with yours 💯

      I never used a block, but I would usually run a couple screws into the studs just below where the drywall would sit.
      That way I could get it up there and grab my stuff before I pushed it up and started screwing it in.

      ​@@HomeRenoVisionDIYjust curious, in the basement, why did you leave the drywall on the floor, and not lift it the ½" imperial, off the ground? Especially in an area with so much plumbing.
      Started this click bait Title… I was watching you hang your first sheet, and saw that channel for the wires, and was like, 'There's no way, this guy is getting this done in eight hours.' Even if there wasn't humidity or rain.
      First tip off, was seeing you struggle with the rip you made on the chalk line. You miss measured your water to powder ratio, and added a second pour: immediately I knew your compound was getting tough to work with, before all tape was applied. How you tossed your slow mixer, on the floor after you opened the Premix, there was no way you'd get this done in a day. Possibly if you did your 2nd coat in 90. But the heart wouldn't be dry enough for primer.
      Did you make any money, after paying for the golf?
      (Furthermore, exclusively using "45" and paper tape, filling those mistakes from the rotozip, and around the large holes cut out for drainage, wouldn't add any extra time than the expanding foam application.)
      After a passage of time, like 2 months, the unpainted caulking on the surfaces next to your flat tape, are going to look brownish from dust circulation. Pro tip… paint doesn't 'fill' imperfections. After about 4 days, the paint cures, and hugs the wall, revealing every line from the heavy sanding grit on the sponge. Take the extra hour, and do the additional finish coat of mud. Run a light bulb, and final touch up if necessary, prior to the prime will serve you well, and avoid rework. Don't skimp for a bet. When does gambling ever pay off?

  • @andrewcarr2431
    @andrewcarr2431 Před rokem +57

    pro tip - drywall square is the exact width of a rectangular electrical box, align one edge and draw both lines.
    and use a scrap piece of drywall as a space to allow a 1/2 gap at the floor, stop moisture wicking up from the concrete.

    After you measure all your protrusions thru the drywall, and write it on the studs, take a picture of the wall. Then you not only have a reference of all those measurements, you have a reference where all the plumbing and wiring is located.!

    Love it. As an electrician, I appreciate drywallers who take care around my work. Small tip, I learn it from an old timer they're good for stuff like that cut some cardboard up and stuff it in the boxes to hold your wires back. It's also good when it comes time to mud and paint, keeps the wires nice. Now I know you'd never hit the wires with the rotozip, paint, or mud, but sometimes you never know who's coming in behind you or if you'll be there to keep an eye on em. Either way great video, thanks for the tips. 10/10 as always.

      @@mrreams711 I haven't tried this, but I believe he's talking about using a lighter to singe any stray threads on the roller on the end that has a cap ("button"), opposite the side you slide the handle into. Then you apply paint to the roller, clean off the button so there's no paint on it, and use the button to scribe along the top of the ceiling. Burning the threads near the button makes sure you don't get paint on the ceiling and leave a small gap between the paint and the ceiling.

    As an intermediate handyman with some drywall experience, a hawk and trowel works wonders for big stuff. If you're curious and wanna try, get a thin one (.04 or .05, Level 5 I know makes them). Once you get the coordination down you don't have to dip in the pan every 3 seconds with your 10 or 12 inch knife. The hawk also works better with a knife because it's easy to clean and continually stir the mud. It only sucks for mixing a small batch.

      This channel has REAL advice. And gives me confidence.
      what’s that $3 bit called? I need it. And is the t-square the correct name? What kind of knife cuts drywall best? What is the mixer called? Basically i need a punch list for the store and im always struggling to hear the tool names.

    It's so good to hear "use good primer" I'm amazed at people that are "sold on" paint n primer in one. I always wanted to know the paint knew if it was priming or painting. The premise is 1st coat primes second coat finishes. Does not work with new drywall nor old dry walls. You will see every place the paint is sucked into the wall.

    quality content as always. I have a question about your mixing paddle. When you transfer it to the water you do not run the paddle in the water in the drill. I have always had a nice clean paddle after mixing compound I "mix" the water for like one or two seconds and the paddle essentially cleans itself. Have you noticed any difference between the two methods? Or is the cleaning just as easy regardless? Also rarely use 45 min mud usually using 20 minute.

I've been at it since 99. If you do manage to persevere through the whole job it will look so bad you won't ever want to go down there and knowone will buy it.

    First, Jeff, let me thank you for ALL you've provided me in the past. I was a paying subscriber briefly but couldn't get my questions answered but I still enjoy learning tips and tricks from you. Let me try a question again: My house is about 50 years old and any time I work on sheetrock I'm left with this conundrum, is it better to rip out floor to ceiling or just say try to repair the lower four feet where a problem requires work. Due to the bowing I've encountered I find it often difficult to line up new sheetrock with old. I'd love some feedback on this question since I'm about to do a complete rehab on a small master bath and the lower 4' of walls outside shower/tub area are covered in tile which I want to rip out.
