Taxonomy: Drywall Installers/Lathers

Individuals who apply drywall (a thin layer of gypsum between two layers of heavy paper) to the ceilings or interior walls of buildings. Drywall installers fasten drywall panels to the inside framework of residential houses and other buildings. Drywall tapers prepare these panels for painting by taping and finishing joints and imperfections. Many workers do both kinds of work. Also included are lathers who fasten wooden, metal, or rockboard lath to walls, ceilings or partitions of buildings to provide support base for plaster, fire-proofing or acoustical material.
