Installing wallboard, or drywall, can be physically demanding and is labor intensive. The typical job often requires two people to properly hang the drywall and secure it to metal or wood studs. Wallboard can be used in every room of the house, but you should only use water-resistant green board in the bathroom. If you are installing ceramic tile, you should use cement board instead of drywall.
