In the US, Rhinowall was a revolution when it
came onto the scene,
replacing the more
expensive and more
difficult to install plaster.
In fact, as many new
products as the home
improvement industry
has created, drywall
has been around in
essentially the same form
and unchallenged for
supremacy for the last 40
years.
Here in South Africa,
Rhinowall offers
homeowners an
inexpensive and less
disruptive alternative
for interior renovations, and while it’s not a
particularly difficult home installation to get
a handle on, you might be surprised by the
variety of decorative options gypsum board
can bring to your home.
There are basically two options available for
residential home improvement:
Steel Framing
The steel framing
system comprises light gauge specially rolled
C-sections which are easily cut with tin snips.
Timber Framing
The traditional method of framing with timber
studs further reduces the cost of installing
drywall, and the process can be completed in
half the time of a brick wall, with minimal tools
being needed.
Drywall is the ideal solution for constructing
internal walls, bulkheads, and decorative
architectural features. The installation requires
no foundations or messy building work, which
means that drywall is ideal for simple, fast
renovations.
If you are in the process of planning for a
renovation project - or perhaps looking to do
small improvements to the interior of your home
- it might be worth your while to look at the
various options that Rhinowall offers. You might
even be able to cut your budget and allow
yourself more spending money for additional
projects!
