Gypsum Wallboard


The gypsum boards are most commonly used in building temporary walls or finishing your interior walls because they are exceptionally easy to install and at the same time fire-resistant and relatively soundproof.

Gypsum wallboards may be of different sizes and thicknesses and they are very easy to cut and handle. They are the perfect base for finishing your walls with either simple paint or wallpaper or whatever finishing type you plan on using.

Gypsum wallboards may be used in separating a room into smaller ones or creating a cosier environment by installing semi-height walls or creating plateaus or niches in the room.

There are two ways to attach the gypsum wallboards – with nails or with screws. Nails are the easier way to attach the boards for those who are not as competent with a screw-gun. A screw or a nail needs to be installed every 16 inches on the wallboards to keep the boards well attached. Some experts recommend using both – nails and screws – nails on the edges of the boards and screws in the middle. This will guarantee the best results.

Measure your walls and go after your gypsum wallboards to have your walls pretty and finished!
