A dropped ceiling offers a number of advantages, chief among them is that you have easy access to mechanical elements residing up between the floor joists. Drywalling a basement ceiling on the other hand also has some advantages and chief among them is the fact that a drywalled basement ceiling impacts headroom height less. Basements are notorious for having limited headroom and to meet building codes you may have no choice but to go with a drywalled basement ceiling.<\/p>\n<p>A drywalled basement ceiling also looks better than a dropped ceiling in many cases.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>This said, there are new dropped ceiling tiles and solutions coming on the market that give a finished drywall basement ceiling a run for its money.<\/p>\n<p>Drywalling a basement ceiling requires an initial inspection of the basement ceiling and some upfront planning. Often soffits need to be framed in around duct work. In addition, in some cases plumbing or wiring may need to either be moved, or again additional soffit framing installed around them. In some cases certain areas of the basement may not be worth including in the basement remodeling due to the significant cost of having to modify various mechanical items in or near the basement ceiling.<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" width=\"50%\">Due to the fact that the first level floor above the basement typically gets a lot of use it\u2019s also a wise idea to install 1\u201dx3\u201d furring strips perpendicular to the upper level floor joists. The furring strips should be installed on 16 inch centers. The furring strips help to isolate the drywall basement ceiling from the floor joist deflections that inevitably occur. The furring strips thus mitigate any nail pops and seam cracking in the drywall basement ceiling.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to Drywall a Basement Ceiling<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Drywalling a basement ceiling is done effectively the same way as drywalling any other ceiling.<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" width=\"1%\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"49%\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B000FK1UFE\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B000FK1UFE&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=wwwhomeadditi-20&amp;linkId=10326db4809786adf6576565c1eca098\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ASIN=B000FK1UFE&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;WS=1&amp;Format=_SL250_&amp;tag=wwwhomeadditi-20\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=wwwhomeadditi-20&amp;l=am2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B000FK1UFE\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Each row of drywall panels should be offset from each other by a half a sheet of drywall to reduce long running seams and to better interlock the drywall panels. The drywall panels should be attached to the furring strips using drywall screws or nails located on 16 inch centers. Typically two people are necessary for installing a drywall basement ceiling, however there are drywall lifts that can be rented to help lift, position, and hold the drywall panels in place while you fasten them to the basement ceiling.<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" width=\"50%\">In regards to the type of drywall to use, theoretically you should be able to use standard drywall as long as the basement is dry and the humidity is going to be kept low under control. This said, a moisture resistant drywall would be a better choice to use in a basement if your budget can afford it. The cost differential is relatively minimal compared to the entire cost of the job.<\/p>\n<p>Taping and mudding a drywalled basement ceiling is done the same way as any other drywall project. Mud, or drywall joint compound, should first be applied to the drywall nail\/screw areas and seams. As soon as mud is applied over each seam, tape should be embed into the seam and a skim coat of joint compound applied over it. A 6 inch taping knife works best for this task.<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" width=\"1%\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"49%\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-8720\" src=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Basement_Addition-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Drywalling a Basement Ceiling\" width=\"280\" height=\"210\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Basement_Addition-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Basement_Addition.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 280px) 100vw, 280px\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>After the first coat of mudding has dried use your 6 inch taping knife to knock off the high spots on the seams and nail\/screw areas and then apply a second coat of mud using a 12 inch taping knife. Feather out the seams and nail\/screw areas using the wider taping knife. Once the second coat of mud has dried repeat the process for the third and final skim coat, again feathering out the seam and screw\/nail hole areas even wider. When the final skim coat has dried, lightly sand the drywalled basement ceiling with a pole sander. Finally prime and paint the sealing. Alternatively after priming it you can apply a textured skim coat to the ceiling surface.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #008000; font-size: large;\">For information on repairing a large drywall hole<\/span><\/strong>, see the &#8220;<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/ebooks\/how-to-repair-a-large-drywall-hole-ebook\/\">How to Repair a Large Drywall Hole<\/a><\/strong><\/span>&#8221; Ebook from HomeAdditionPlus.com.\u00a0 The &#8220;How to Repair a Large Drywall Hole&#8221; Ebook provides step-by-step instructions on how to repair your damaged wall so that it looks as good as new.<\/p>\n<h3 align=\"left\"><span style=\"color: #008000;\">See HomeAdditionPlus.com&#8217;s<\/span> <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/drywall-info\/Drywall-Calculator.htm\">Drywall Calculator<\/a><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 align=\"left\"><span style=\"color: #008000; font-size: large;\"><b>Related\u00a0Information<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #0000ff;\"><b><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/drywall\/tray-ceilings\/\">The Beauty of Tray Ceilings<\/a><\/b><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: large; color: #0000ff;\"><b><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/product-reviews\/drywall-tape-machine-tapebuddy\/\">The TapeBuddy Tool Ensures Just the Right Amount of Joint Compound on Tape<\/a><\/b><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #0000ff; font-size: large;\"><b><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/drywall\/repair-drywall-ceilings\/\">How to Repair Drywall Ceilings<\/a><\/b><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 align=\"left\"><b><span style=\"color: #008000; font-size: large;\">Additional Drywall Installation\u00a0Resources from Amazon.com<\/span><\/b><\/h2>\n<table id=\"AutoNumber9\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"center\" width=\"25%\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/1600854699\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=1600854699&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=wwwhomeadditi-20&amp;linkId=c238b354baf547ed818ba73611fe9684\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ASIN=1600854699&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;WS=1&amp;Format=_SL250_&amp;tag=wwwhomeadditi-20\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=wwwhomeadditi-20&amp;l=am2&amp;o=1&amp;a=1600854699\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/td>\n<td align=\"center\" width=\"25%\"><\/td>\n<td align=\"center\" width=\"25%\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/1561587753\/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=1561587753&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=wwwhomeadditi-20&amp;linkId=6d12bd3b6aafbaea79094d6886a42ead\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?_encoding=UTF8&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;ASIN=1561587753&amp;ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;ID=AsinImage&amp;WS=1&amp;Format=_SL250_&amp;tag=wwwhomeadditi-20\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"\/\/ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/e\/ir?t=wwwhomeadditi-20&amp;l=am2&amp;o=1&amp;a=1561587753\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/td>\n<td align=\"center\" width=\"25%\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #008000; font-size: large;\">Free Home Addition Price Quotes with No Obligation!<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Fill out our 3-5 minute quick and easy form, and receive a free price quote on a house addition from one of our prescreened and licensed home addition contractors.
