Drywall Preparation and Dust Containment Setup
At 8:53 in
Kitchen Makeover + DEMO DAY (Ep.1)
What happens here
Before commencing any significant drywall cutting, completely seal off the work area to contain dust. Cover all doorways, archways, and any open passages with thick plastic sheeting, taping the edges securely to the wall to create an airtight seal. For cutting drywall, use a laser level to project a precise, straight line on the wall. This ensures accurate cuts for future installations and helps to minimize unnecessary damage. If any outlets are in the way, temporarily remove the cover plates.
Goal: Prepare the kitchen area for dust containment by installing plastic sheeting over all openings, then mark precise cut lines on the drywall where modifications are needed.
