We finally can work again. We did all the electric,plumbing,replaced all the windows and doors,built the walls for bedroom/bath/laundry, insulated walls and drywall--we have a few sheets to do in bedroom but we did all the drywall you see in 1 day--my son 13 was the dry wall cutter--he is in one of the photos--he is so accurate in his cuts,rarely do you have to trim them--we have a a month long vacation--lol yea right---to work on this project so you should be some dramatic changes soon :)
Melissa sorry it is in an album--tried to send it to my email w photos--this worked then copy/paste--did not work,I will get it to post here one day lol

I noticed you hung drywall on the walls before the ceiling. Around here we hang the ceiling first, that way the edges against the walls are suppurted by the wall drywall.

Hi,

I have a ceiling repair coming up in a laundry room, could you outline quickly how you do a whole ceiling? it surely does show that you and yours know some great ways to do mobile home upgrades...

it is easier to take photos to explain--this is what we are doing next week--but I do not have internet there--we are using masonite--is @ $ 6 for 4x8 sheet, it is like 1/4 thick and very light weight we will prime/paint it,screw it up and cover seams w trim--usually 1 x4 this way we can access it--our wires run in the ceiling and easy to repair if needed---will post a photo of other houses we did this way
