Ceiling Gaps
Just put up some 5/8th inch drywall and there is some crown molding. I got lazy and put up a sheet and left about an inch gap between the top of the molding and the bottom of the drywall. there is no wood to screw a small piece of drywall to. What would be the best solution. I was thinking spray foam it then caulk it. It's a rental and doesn't have to look perfect. Thanks

Re: Ceiling GapsQuote:
Fill in the gap with the durabond. When dry, scrape flat. Attach Mesh over the length of the area. Apply a coat of more durabond (fresh batch). After drying- Then coat as needed with regular compound. Example: ![]() ![]()
