This guide was a solid refresher before I hung drywall in our laundry room. The reminders about staggering seams, keeping screw heads just dimpled (not tearing paper), and doing thin coats of mud are exactly what separates a decent job from a smooth finish. I would’ve loved a quick note on recommended screw spacing for walls vs ceilings, but overall it’s clear and practical.
This guide was a solid refresher and I liked how it broke down the “little things” that actually make or break a drywall job, especially screw depth and staggering seams. The reminder about leaving a small floor gap and priming to spot flaws early was spot on. I would’ve loved a bit more detail on inside/outside corners, but overall it’s clear and practical for a DIYer or someone supervising a contractor.
