Incorporated in 2005, Sovran Building Systems is a full-service shell contractor, offering concrete form and placement, masonry, framing, a wide variety of exterior trim finishes, light-gauge metal framing, and drywall services to the construction industry.

Drywalls are a lightweight interior wall system that is made of a galvanized iron (GI) frame pressed between two gypsum plasterboards. There are several benefits to hiring a company that provides drywall installation and maintenance services.

1. Installation benefits – Drywalls are eight to ten times lighter than masonry walls and can be installed three to four times faster. Since they do not need water curation like masonry construction, the application is also a more straightforward process for the contractors.

2. Customization – Drywall’s light weight and solid form allows it to be modified quickly and easily if the building owner is interested in making structural changes. This versatility provides the owner the freedom to create new spaces.

3. Aesthetic and environmental benefits – As plasterboards, the drywalls are crack-free and allow many types of finishes like wallpaper, paint, or laminates. Gypsum plasterboard is a 100% recyclable material, which makes drywalls eco-friendly. Since drywall does not require water, there is also little risk of mold.
