Drywall, Ceilings & Panels

Yes! Use construction adhesive and nails for a secure fit. Ensure the wall is clean, dry, and level.

Add extra screws into joists every 12 inches. For severe sagging, install 1x3 furring strips perpendicular to joists for support.

Use heavy-duty drywall anchors or toggle bolts to support weight, especially for wider windows or heavy drapes.

Drop ceilings (tiles on a grid) offer easy access to utilities but lower height. Drywall provides a seamless look but requires more labor.
