What type of drywall should be used in a bathroom or basement? Moisture-resistant (green board) or mold-resistant (purple board) drywall is required in bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, and basements. Standard drywall in these environments will absorb moisture, swell, and grow mold behind paint — a problem FTL prevents by selecting the correct board for every application.

Can you handle drywall as part of a larger remodel? Yes — and this is one of FTL’s core advantages. Drywall is fully integrated into every kitchen, bathroom, and basement renovation we manage. The same team that frames, runs electrical, and installs plumbing also hangs and finishes the drywall — no scheduling separate trades or waiting for crews to hand off between phases.

Do you provide drywall work for insurance claims? Yes. FTL provides direct insurance billing for water damage, fire damage, and impact-related drywall repairs throughout South Central PA. We document the damage scope, provide an itemized estimate compatible with most insurance claim formats, and coordinate directly with adjusters where needed.

How long does a drywall project take? A standard room drywall repair or small patch takes 1 day including finishing and texture matching. Full room drywall installations require 2–3 days for hanging, plus 3–5 additional days for taping, three finish coats, and sanding — with drying time between coats. Basement and whole-home drywall packages are scoped individually with realistic timelines provided in writing before work begins.
