54"wide Drywall
I called HD and Lowes and they do not sell 54" wide drywall. Does anyone know where to get it?

Re: 54"wide Drywall
Where are you located? Kinda hard to help you without that.
In Los Angeles, CA, Cal-Wall Gypsum Supply has it sometimes. Cal-Ply may as well. Those are the two places I would start. |

Re: 54"wide Drywall
And, what kind of trade is "construction"?

Re: 54"wide Drywall
I see children constructing birdhouses at the Home Depot.

Re: 54"wide Drywall
The reason you will not find 54 inch rock at HD or Lowes is about pricing and trucking.

Re: 54"wide DrywallQuote:
Any Drywall Supply Company carries this. (It is primarily designed for installations in older homes with higher ceilings) You will NOT find it in your average BIG HOME type stores....

Re: 54"wide Drywall
I do a little work for a particular spec builder who does mostly all 9 foot ceilings in his specs. I suppose the height illusion is supposed to make up for the fact that the rooms are small.
 Anyhow, they use 54" rock on those walls.
