drywall over tongue-in-groove cedar ceiling
Comments (1)"We would like to cover the cedar with drywall. Can we just secure the drywall by screwing directly through the cedar into the joists? Is 1/2" drywall ok?" I'm not sure why no one responded to your post, but I could not comment on the above without further knowledge of snowloads etc. on what sounds like minimal rafters. If loads were not an issue, DW could be installed on sleepers intermediate to the rafters as a way to minimise nail pops from wood movement. Response to your second question is biased. I'm against any lighting or plumbing that involves violating the building envelope/ conditioned space....See Moredisappointed - removing tile backsplash - now holes thru drywall
Comments (3)FWIW, after too many attempts to save drywall when removing tile I now just start by cutting the drywall and tile out completely. It's way faster and easier to patch in a new piece of drywall than to fuss with careful removal of the tile and subsequent repair of the damage. This has the side benefit if you're re-tiling of being able to put in a more appropriate backer board in place of the drywall. It is disappointing when renovation doesn't go to plan, but more common than not in my experience....See Moreis there anyway to install drywall without removing kitchen cabinets?
Comments (25)I actually got a very good cut, around them, so I did a lot of the mud with my fingers. And sandpaper after dry. It is just a very slow process, but, it can be done. Since you have already painted your cabinets, you just might have to sand a bit on your cabinets after the mud is dry. Of course, then, you will have to repaint that end. It just takes time, and it takes patience. If your gap is too big, you may be able to use a bit of tape. Mine was a very tiny spot, because the drywall fit very close. The two mouldings you see on my cabinets are original, but, I did remove them, and didnt put them back on, until the wall drywall was taped and mudded and sanded and primed and painted. In my case that all took a while, because, I had paneled ceilings too. Also my kitchen is open to the dining room, and the hall, so there was many square feet of sheetrock put up. I had a relative and a friend put up the drywall. I did all the taping, and all the mudding and all the sanding, and priming and painting and all the corner beads. It took a full year, working by myself, after the sheetrock was up. Started in January, and finished one week before Christmas. I didnt paint my cabinets until 2 yrs later, because, I injured both shoulders using an electric sander on the ceilings....See MoreHelp with Kitchen Flush Mount light
Comments (19)Ok I did a little more searching and came across this fixture linked below. It's very low profile, wondering anyones thoughts comparing this to the Tech Lighting? I would get the 22" and the light output looks to be the same as the Tech Lighting I do still lean to the Tech Lighting Vance thinking it may look a little better but just wanted a little more feedback before ordering https://www.lumens.com/geos-flushmount-wall-sconce-by-dweled-dwl693437.html?utm_medium=SocialShopping&sc_intid=dwl693437&utm_source=pinterest...See More- 3 years ago
