You may never hang and finish a 2500 sq. foot home, purchase an automatic taper or walk around on stilts. However, there are likely small projects or repairs that every homeowner will face over time that needs to be repaired. They’re not big enough to hire someone, but small enough for the homeowner. In your home, understanding the different types of drywall, drywall compounds, tools and common problems might be all you need to gain the self-confidence to handle those repairs or jobs yourself. Addressing water damage, loose tape joints, cracked outside corners, nail pops and holes from door handles are just a few of the issues. Understanding why they occurred, how they can be repaired, and how to prevent them in the future are topics that Barrett will discuss. Students will learn how to cut clean, straight lines and why it’s important to know which products to use for a high-end finish. Barrett will share his five levels of finishing and the different texture types and their application methods. Learning these new tips and techniques can save time and money.
