Re: Post A Picture Of Your Current Job.


Not as fancy as some jobs but hey it's my job and it's money. Ten 1200sqft carports. Sheetrock on the ceilings was installed with 8 nails around the perimeter of each sheet NONE, ZERO, ZIP, ZILCH, NADA in the field!! Oh yeah trusses spaced anywhere from 16oc to 30 oc not any real pattern. Anyways: remove sheetrock, a little framing (to have something to nail to), install vinyl soffit. Also a quick question, sheetrock outside?? Is this a common practice?? It's not greenboard or anything special, just plain old 1/2 in sheetrock. This is before pic. After pic when I'm done.

Not a good idea no matter how many screws, and no not a common practice.

That's what I said! But I thought I might have missed that day in class

Whatever, the guy that did it just made me some pretty good money. Guess this could go in the best hack thread.

Where I am..... it is common practice. Yes it is brown board. Any where there is a porch with a ceiling it gets brown rock or soffit board.
