Why doe DIYers hate drywall?
A buddy and I were thinking about learning how to do a lot more DIY home repair stuff because we just became homeowners. We were thinking of doing the drywall in my basement and after looking at this Home Depot video https://youtu.be/S39Rd8pGcDk?si=yMyVEEJpnZ1oBVSp , it seemed pretty simple, but I was surprised to see in this Reddit that a lot of people hate drywall and always outsource it. What am I missing about how hard it is to do drywall? submitted by /u/clvnthbld to r/HomeImprovement [link] [comments]

Why am I able to see the studs through my drywall?
I've lived in this apartment for almost 4 years, and in the last month or 2 I've noticed there are dark lines where I assume my studs are. I can even see dark spots where I expect the nails are? This wall borders the outside of my apartment building in NYC. I live right next to an above-ground subway, not sure how that would make a difference though. What could be the cause of this and should I do anything about besides just painting over it? I'm worried it's mold. submitted by /u/goody-two-sneakers to r/Home [link] [comments]

Why is this posted? This is a terrible deal. 242 pieces - the vast majority - are nothing. 80 screws, 80 drywall anchors, 50 zip ties, 34 bits. This is a rip off. Buy one of the sets that's a name brand and has full 1/4-1/2 that go on sale for 100. Go to harbor freight and some 50 on pliers hammer screws anchors tape ect. 1000x better set.

Drywall myself or hire out?
Had a hose pipe burst in my house and ruin my basement carpet and this section of drywall. Have the pipe fixed, insurance check in hand, and am wondering if this is something I can do myself or should hire out. I was quoted $1500 to hang, tape, mud, texture. And then I would paint it up. I’ve never drywalled before, wondering what you guys think? submitted by /u/doron1245 to r/DIY [link] [comments]

Please witness my stairwell/hallway Trim stripping/drywall/carpentry project because no one else will understand my pain like you do.
I stripped several layers of white paint off of all the trim and baseboards in my stairwell and upper hallway to match the main level of the house. In the process I discovered a not so cleverly hidden hole where an addition was put on and so had to attempt some drywall (I bow down to people who are good at mudding, I suck at it. I probably have clown lung from all the sanding even with a respirator) . The entirety of the trim around the master bedroom door was stolen from inside the closets of other rooms and Frankensteined together so the wood would (lol) match. Cat Tax at the end in case you needed a better look at the spooky sisters. submitted by /u/Betty_Wight_ to r/centuryhomes [link] [comments]

PSA: Drywall work is a lot harder than you think
I've been apart of this subreddit for years now and I keep seeing the same issues with new finishers/home owners posting for help. They start the project before even looking up a how-to video or article. I've never understood the mentality of starting something without first having a basic understanding of what you are doing. The Vancouver Carpenter on YouTube has a bunch of great drywall finishing and hanging videos that will help you before you even start. I hope this helps! submitted by /u/Pinkalink23 to r/drywall [link] [comments]
