Matching Material To Room, All At Once
A new build is really a whole-house version of the same material decisions we make on any single room: standard board through most of the house, moisture-resistant green board going up in bathrooms and laundry rooms before anyone's even thought about tile, and Type X fire-rated board wherever code requires it, garage-to-house shared walls being the most common spot. Getting this mapped out before drywall day means the crew isn't guessing room to room, and it means nothing gets missed that an inspector catches later.
Why Sequencing Matters On A New Build
Drywall goes up after framing, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical rough-in are all inspected and signed off, not before. Going in too early risks covering something an inspector needs to see; going in late holds up every trade behind us, from insulation to paint to flooring. We work off the same schedule as your general contractor specifically so drywall isn't the reason a project falls behind.
New construction drywall FAQs
When does drywall go up during a new build?
Drywall goes up after framing, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical rough-in are all inspected and signed off, not before. Going in too early risks covering something an inspector needs to see, and going in late holds up every trade behind us, from insulation to paint to flooring.
How do you decide which drywall type goes in each room?
Standard board covers most of the house, moisture-resistant green board goes up in bathrooms and laundry rooms before tile work starts, and Type X fire-rated board goes wherever code requires it, most commonly on garage-to-house shared walls. Mapping this out before drywall day means nothing gets missed that an inspector catches later.
Do you coordinate directly with our general contractor's schedule?
Yes. We work off the same schedule as your general contractor from framing sign-off to final walkthrough, since drywall sits in the middle of the build sequence and can hold up every trade that comes after it if it falls behind.
What finish level do new construction walls typically get?
Most rooms get a standard Level 4 finish, which covers taped seams and screw heads under primer. Certain spaces, like accent walls or rooms with strong natural light, sometimes call for a higher finish level, which we can factor into the plan up front rather than after the fact.
