Frequently Asked Questions

Which is better paper or mesh drywall tape?

The answer to this question depends on the area the drywall tape is being used and how comfortable the user is with the taping process.

Paper tape requires a thin layer of drywall compound to be applied first as it has no adhesive. It also doesn't hold up well to moisture, so it is not recommended for use in damp areas. However, paper tape is easier to work with and can be used with any type of drywall mud. Paper tape has less flex than mesh tape which holds the joints in place better.

Mesh tape has adhesive so you can stick it in place which speeds up the process for those not familiar with using paper tape. It is more resistant to mold and moisture and stronger than paper tape but is harder to work with in corners and tight spaces.

What types of drywall tape do you carry?

We carry mesh, paper and composite drywall tape as well as cement board tape.

What causes bubbles in drywall tape?

The most common cause of bubbling in drywall tape is poor installation. This can happen if you don't apply enough compound behind the tape or if you are using old tape or working on uneven surfaces.

How do I fix bubbling in drywall tape?

If you have bubbling in your drywall tape and the joint compound is still wet and the bubbles are close to the edge, you can simply lift the tape up and apply more compound underneath. When you lay the tape back down be sure to work the new mud back into the old mud.

If the compound is still wet but the bubbles are in the center of a space, you can use a utility knife to cut out the bubbled section and add mud to the area and then replace with a new section that overlaps the remaining tape by about 1/2 inch.

If your compound is already dry the process to fix them is similar but slightly more complex. Carefully remove the dried compound with a razor blade or putty knife edge.

Go slow so you don't damage the drywall underneath and use a damp rag to remove any small spots that may be left behind. If you do have to use a damp rag make sure the surface is completely dry before proceeding.

Once the area you removed the old tape from is clean and dry, apply a thin layer of mud and lay the tape over the mud overlapping the existing tape by about 1/2 inch on either side. Go over the new section of tape with a layer of compound to secure it in place. Once dry sand the area that was repaired so it blends seamlessly with the rest of the tape.
