On this episode of In the House we take a detailed look into sheetrock with Junior Coronado of GCTEX Drywall. We dive into the history of sheetrock, where it comes from, what new products are on the market, who makes it, why gypsum and how did it become the standard substrate for wall finishes? Junior walks us through each level of drywall finish and we discuss best practices for achieving a level 5 finish and beyond!

Today on In the House, I speak with Brett and Naomi Jimison, who left their home in California in search of freedom in the great state of Texas. With no prior building experience, Brett and Naomi decided to build their house out of solid limestone. We discuss why they made the choice to use limestone over wood framing and how the house performs in the summer and the winter. We also discuss the reason for documenting their build on Youtube as well as their five step guide to get started building your own limestone home.
