Taping

Taping, also known as drywall finishing or mudding, is the final step in the drywall installation process, where joints and seams between drywall panels are concealed and smoothed to create a seamless surface. This involves applying joint compound (mud) to cover the joints, embedding drywall tape to reinforce them, and then sanding and feathering the compound to achieve a smooth finish. Proper taping is essential for achieving professional-quality walls and ceilings, ensuring that imperfections are minimized and surfaces are ready for painting or other finishing treatments. Whether it’s a new construction project or a renovation, skilled taping techniques are crucial for achieving flawless interior surfaces.
