Thank you in the name of all the girls who are doing it themselves and want to learn without being judged or underestimated. I just put my first drywall up myself and I couldnt be prouder. Thank you so much!

[@mosesespino6406]

I bought a 100 year old home doing a complete remodel on it learning alot from you thank u for all the time you put into these videos...

[@bignastyyufel]

Honestly......Out of all the “how to’ers” you’re def the funniest to watch. Thank you. You’ve given me the courage to not just install drywall but to finish and tape it too. Prayers are needed lol

[@roberttretsch8794]

Just started watching and am truly impressed. Consider myself a reasonably accomplshed DIYer, but have learned a hell of a lot from all your videos. Especially like your approach, not pedantic, but dam practical. Not only useful but just enjoyable to watch. Thank you.

[@laffograms1976]

I am redoing my living room right now. This is my first big project in my first home. These drywall videos have been invaluable. so thank you so much!

[@jafaralbaaj8912]

I would really say watching your videos for 2:30 hours and not feeling bored is something, I’ve never felt like that in school lol, man I really appreciate your time and I’m learning a lot from you that I’m teaching my partners and mentors some of your skills

[@antonysantos4365]

Hey man, I would like to thank you for all your time, because I've been learning a lot from your videos. Cheers

[@tonyhart9297]

Very goodadvice

[@Kyaide]

I love your videos, they really make me feel like I can do what you are teaching. Something about the way you explain it, you cover the what ifs but also give confidence to the viewer. Thanks for sharing with us!

[@CarlosLopez-wi5cf]

I’ve watched a few of your videos and I’m truly glad I did. Thank you!

[@craigmcglinn1173]

Hello Jeff, I live in Tamworth, NSW Australia. I have just started my renovations. I have to say a huge Thankyou to you. Watching all these have helped me greatly in purchasing the correct tools and in my installation. CHEERS

[@daozenrod]

I'm watching all of these. I really enjoy your show and the quips of information you give. Such as the vacuum created by shutting a door pulling an unsecured sheet down on someone's head. Again, thanks!

[@mikemerlyn.1691]

Excellent series of drywall installation. Thank you!! Best I’ve ever seen!!

[@pedrojavier2417]

Awesome! Thanks for showing me how it’s done nicely.

[@pekongupta123]

Thank You for explaining all the tips and tricks, and adding a flavor of humor. It was a wonderful class.

[@jessekolar322]

I'm replacing drywall on walls that sit on a slab. Bottoms were all moldy and soft. Previous installers ran it tight to the ground and just as you said, it drew moisture up from the concrete. Thanks for the tips and help identifying the problem.

[@NateDanger]

Great videos, great tips. I watch a lot of youtube for home renovation projects and you have such a friendly relaxed way of presenting the information that stands out. I'll be looking to your channel first from now on.

[@abehamm3010]

just started drywalling my basement glad I found your channel!

[@gwendolynfoster4821]

You are one of my favorite instructors, thank you so much for sharing all this info with the public.

[@nolanalmeida6868]

Class act and very informative, reminds me of my boss , love what you are doing , and I appreciate it 🙏🏼 keep up the good work

[@bruceyoung9028]

Thanks for the concise and extremely helpful content.

[@scottedwards2618]

Thanks for posting these vids.

[@cw4608]

On my 120 year old house none of the studs were on center so we made marks on the floor and ceiling at each end of the stud so we would know where to drive the screws in. Thank you for these tips. My dad was helping me renovate my house, but age ended his ability to help. On my own without dads help I procrastinated finishing two odd rooms, now I feel able to tackle them.

[@lisavanalstine6179]

love the videos, im tackling some drywall. for newbies its about the techniques and tools, sinking the heads, matching factory edges, leaving the cut edges on the outside. enjoy ur straighforward approach. nice work!

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Thank you Lisa! Cheers!

[@TheChoirDirector]

Thank you for all the pro tips!

[@StoverGame]

I'm building a Skoolie and by god these videos are killer! Great tips and tricks and you've definitely got a new subscriber in me! Can't wait to get to work and use this on the inside of my bus!

[@Slim276]

This has been great! Thanks so much. 👍

[@dwaynebell588]

Excellent videos. Love the common sense approach.

[@blondeexplorer8276]

Thank you for the video. WONDERFUL and so informative. This will be my first time to hang dry wall to the wall. Trying to save a few dollars. Thank you for making a point about not allowing it to touch concrete. After a bad tornado I need to replace the dry wall in my three car garage and attached tool room. Best to you 🤠

[@Bootsauce]

Jeff Thorman is fantastic! I only recently discovered your videos whilst preparing to install vinyl flooring in my house.. Thank the gods of DIY that I did! Your method of conveying information is subtly brilliant. Your style is very easy going and keeps me engaged. I love how you will offer up live examples of the traditional method vs a technique that you find more efficient. Thanks to you I’ve re-started my basement finishing job 😉 Cheers!

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Awesome to hear that you are inspired and encouraged. Feel free to ask questions in the comment section of the videos. cheers!

[@ApexWoodworks]

[@marcotomei6177]

[@JohnJones-mj5jq]

Great videos Jeff, very helpful. In the scenario where the butt end of two panels meet in the center on a stud, where do I drive the screws in? Thanks and keep producing!!!

[@metroplexchl]

man this is great info!

[@ericgolett7390]

Really good instructor 👍

[@nrfa6229]

Great step by step video. I’ve been a subscriber for some time now, and you’ve helped a lot. I’m actually redoing my man cave in my basement right now, and this video was just what I needed. I’m already good at drywall where you can’t see my seems. But it’s the tool and tips of, how you showed how the drywall was uneven. Two points at 45 and the left at 44”. The you said to cut it at 44” and to use that tool to lift it. I didn’t know there was such a tool, so thank you for that. Please keep up these great videos. Also. Please keep doing them step by step, while always fully explaining everything in detail like you do. It’s all about the little things like those that, stand out bigger than others doing videos on KZbin. Awesome job as always. Merry Christmas to you&yours.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Thank you so much for hanging in with us.We are really excited about next year as we continue to try and get better at what we are doing. Merry Christmas to your family as well. Enjoy your holidays.

[@victoriarussett114]

I am so happy that I found your channel!! Your videos are awesome and I'm learning so much. Thank you! Wish I had found them before I started finishing my garage...Question for you if you don't mind...I'm done all the insulation and vapour barrier - onto the drywall. What happens when the end of my 8' drywall sheet doesn't match up with a stud? Should I cut it to match up with the closest stud? Thanks so much!!

[@dianaortega5676]

Awesome videos. Thanks. Learning a lot.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Cheers and Have a great Christmas!

[@eunsuyoo171]

3:45 it's a beautiful thang lol somehow this is very entertaining.

[@anthonyevans3346]

First of all great content on the channel. Learning more from these 8 or so minute videos than I did as a taper apprentice for 3 years. I have a question. Is there a reason for no insulation between each stud? I ask because I’ve normally only been on jobs with metal studs and anytime the rock was being put up they would layer the insulation between each stud.

[@ednathompson8806]

Hi Jeff, Thank you so much for the practical attention to detail advise. We will like your advice, our walls are 8' 5" tall in one room and abut 9' on another. Do we install all drywall sheets horizontally and have a thinner strip at the bottom?

[@mattwilcox2468]

First off, I love your videos! I've watched several tonight and I keep thinking you remind me of someone but I couldn't think of who...until now. You remind me of Red Green (in a good way). I guess it's just your mannerisms and laid back demeanor. Keep up the good work and remember "If women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy." Haha 😄

[@mathieuturgeon9476]

Thank you for all theses videos, such a great learning tool. I'm on my 4th reno following your tips. Quick question here would you leave a 1/8" gap btw drywall for a new construction so when the wood dry more drywall doesn't chip? Many recommend it, I would like your opinion. Thx!

[@dannycruikshank2833]

Great videos very informative. Thanks for the videos.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

Our pleasure Danny!

[@honestinsincerity2270]

Good ol Canadians. They're so polite and good at explaining things

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

On most days, but we get a little crabby in the winter.

[@davesmith7328]

nifty info you can use your t square to mark lines on your studs on the upper sheet helps with the misses.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

usually I just mark the ceiling where the studs are and connect the dote from the midpoint , but sure. Some guys like lines to follow.

[@patrickpoppe6315]

Pro tip!Buy a drywall square and put lines in stud layout!

[@ishtiaqbhat9759]

Plz Help! Thank you Have been learning a lot from you. I come from Kashmir wherein temperature ranges from minus 7 in winter to plus 32 in summer. Please guide what thickness glasswool do you recommend. And please suggest also what thickness drywall.

[@davidpoultney7488]

Hi Jeff excellent videos 2 questions shouldn’t you have a flat edge at floor to attach baseboards and what do you do where a butt edge meets tapered edge

[@ArneJohanssonMpls]

awesome video. I like the gravity trick.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

works pretty well for me so I don't have to mark all m y sheets before installing them.

[@raymondhoguelll2044]

1:05 funny 😂 but even more funny how ur so thorough it's common sense but people don't seem to have it anymore...

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

We appreciate the comment. Cheers!

[@puwazatza]

it is amazing that I never find those drywall screws while wall-mounting a tv or putting heavy frames on the wall with the stud detector.

[@esaicmb2311]

Wow! The more videos I see the more I want to do my own DIY projects. You explain things in such an easy way. :) Now all I need is to figure out how to prevent moisture from getting into my basement. I think that has to do with the outside of the house.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

99% of it is grading and diversion. Cheers!

[@surferdjnj]

In Florida it's code to use 5 screws per interior row vertically and 6 screws on L and R edges. Had a builder stop by about some other work and saw my sheet rock work and told me so. Not sure about code where DIY lives.

[@juniorcarvalho3977]

very good

[@concentr8655]

This dude is great

[@hannaredo7538]

how do you drywall around a window? How would you do the window sill edge?

[@kcb3rd]

Great. Felt like I was there being well trained. Thanks.

[@stefaniaslovat]

I’m doing drylining in uk for more than a decade and I don’t want to be kind of a critic but here, you will never have a board fixed alongside on a wall. Only if you fix additional horizontal support for the board sheet. Always vertically. And this is a must. You have to have all the edges of the board on a continuous solid support (timber or metal). If not, there will be cracks. If the timber/metal is done vertically, then the board has to be vertically. No matter what. That’s the Uk’s Dry liner rule number 1 .

[@brownarj]

Do you mud the factory tape edge (recessed part) when it rests along the floor or just leave it? Awesome channel btw

[@dgrzy56]

Would I need a gap between my drywall and my bathtub? I would assume yes. I am using purpleboard and will be covering with Mapei Aquadefense with tile on top.

[@bobbyflores220]

great video series. I would like to see more of a focus on how to align when the walls are not square or there are gaps. how to cut the drywall to fit those..

[@cheluvegowda4726]

I would like to know the process of exterior stone cladding on old painted walls

[@thebigtruckguy]

Is it best to hang drywall horizontal bs vertical? Which way is best and why? I plan on doing my garage and never done this before.

[@stevocurry2380]

My only question is at the end of the video you talked about if I have to joined the drywall' yes you share the beam, but do you put seem to seem or joint to joint or never do that ? If you understand what I'm asking

[@davidwhite1364]

You mention on the painting to run the final following the light fro windows. For drywall on ceilings is it best to have butt joints following the direction of light from the window and paper edges opposite direction? what do you recommend??

[@bassistkenny]

I use one of those screw depth set things, but I noticed you are not.. How do you set the depth properly? Am I missing a video here?

[@jackryder6732]

Hello there, I am doing exactly what are doing, installation of side dry wall. Can the dry wall touch the floor, what is gap requirement and the roof. My floor is unfinished. Planning to put carpet. Please advise. Thank you

[@kennethadmire409]

Love your videos. Most KZbin authors spend all their time talking and very small portion of actually doing the work. Most of us who are not professionals are actually able to comprehend most of what is presented and do not need minutes and minutes of detail. Yours are great. You explain briefly and then show how....thanks.

[@HomeRenoVisionDIY]

WE are just giving out what we think you need to get the job done right. Cheers!

[@mathguy829]

Great video. Is that an impact drill you're using?

[@tarap5618]

What's the best way to install ceiling fan bracket in existing room. Older home...someone swapped original light fixture for ceiling fan. Noticed that there are thin cracks around ceiling fan from weight and movement of fan. Trying to avoid going up into attic crawl space to attach ceiling fan bracket. (Dont want to deal with loose cellulose insulation or its inhabitants-- creepy crawlies-- unless I have to.)
