About this class

In this class we will cover the basics of hanging drywall, including some hands-on experience. We will talk about estimating and buying materials, what tools are needed, and how to plan out your work ahead of time. Then we will dive in and hang some sheets of drywall on our WPTL tiny test walls. Time permitting, we will also be placing the first coat of drywall mud / joint compound and taping the seams with paper tape. The cost of this class is flexible.
