We’ve got a crazy amount of work here in Houston as well after the freeze we’ve been nonstop for three months I’m scheduled probably three weeks right now you can only do what you can do!
You’re very welcome Tommy I’ve been doing this for 28 years I hope to get some stuff in Home Depot as well I was hoping I could teach some folks later on in life before my body gives out lol have a blessed day!
I’m getting ready to do 7 windows like these so this video is very helpful THANKS! I do have a couple questions: at what point were you on the flats and butts before you started the windows? And is there a reason that you didn’t do the bottom outside of the windows? Thanks again
I always take the flats and butts first then install corner bead and float and then float the boats and flats into the window as far as the bottom corners go as long as their level should be fine with a touchup to spout the edge. If the corners not leveled and you’ll have to float under a little bit. But the trim should cover it
Very good job, I only recommend that in the corners when you put the metals I suggest you fill it in and put a piece of tapy so that it does not crack, the corners greetings ...
Love it, the process, the presentation, a professional's explanation. Curious to me why no paper or transition between vertical and horizontal bead on the wall surface. A job dog with wagging tail would add to lower texture fur sure. Thanks, Scott
When do you put the paper metals instead, to clean it with the spatula, wet it with a sponge, and squeeze it and with that you clean the metals it is super good ... then now to cover ... greetings 👍👍
The corner bead is meant to cover the joint between the return of the window and the outside wall if you don’t put corner bead on it you can wrap it with wood but you have to do one of those two to have a nice finish.
It’s actually not a plastic. It’s a laminate paper faced, and as you saw in the video we glue it on with mud and it has a lifetime guarantee it. I’ll never crack and has no metal in it so it can’t rust. Really bad ass product! Been using it for 17 years in my business and I’ve never fixed a single crack corner bead behind it. Just saying…
On that particular demonstration I believe it was USG +3 you can use any kind of mud for the install just make sure it’s loose and you have no blisters Scott
@@scottssheetrockservices when skim coating the drywall what do we start with first ,is it the corner beads on corner and windows please help,I would like to know
@@davyphiri7503 I like to always start with a cornerbead first are you windows straight six and then 45 then I’ll follow up with all of my recessed seems we call them flats. Skim all of those just to the edge of the mud on your windows and cornerbead. Then but joints and screws
