By putting in the drywall first you separate drywall and its dust from the flooring later on.
Do floors or drywall first.
The first step to hanging drywall is to take a pencil and mark on the floor and ceiling the placement of the vertical studs.
Install drywall on the walls before installing floor covering.
Opt for floor installation first because it s often a messy process.
From there you should rip up the floors.
You d have to lay the flooring and cover it with industrial plastic sheeting and duct tape the joints to answer your question.
Time and mess if time is of the essence it s quicker to hang the drywall and tape out the walls first.
The general construction rule is to work from the top of the room downward.
Even though you will have removed the baseboards.
This will simplify the attachment of the drywall panels to the framing.
Any gaps that remain between the finish flooring and the drywall typically are hidden beneath base trim that sits at floor.
Both drywall work and floor installation create a mess but drywall s mess far exceeds that of flooring.
A gutted room eliminates much of the dirt and grime associated with removing old carpet tile or wood flooring.
When you re hanging drywall and installing new flooring it s usually best to hang the drywall first and then save the floor for last.
In new construction homes where no flooring has been laid yet this is the way it works.
Yes you could lay the flooring first but you d need to cover it before the drywall went up and that will cost you around 60 to 120 depending on how big your floor space is.
The finish flooring can add 3 8 to 3 4 inch to the height of the floor.
The reason for that is that this can damage the floors.
Make sure any insulating work and vapor barrier installation are complete before you begin hanging drywall panels.
Also it s often better to paint the ceilings first especially given that the ladders will rest on the floors.
The ideal is to first do any prep work to the walls e g ripping up wall paper sanding and patching walls etc.
When you run a floor sander around a room there is the possibility of scuffing up newly painted walls.
