        "text": "Should kitchen drywall be hung before or after installing cabinets?\nDrywall should always be hung, taped, finished, and primed before kitchen cabinets are installed. Installing drywall first creates a continuous, flat backing that ensures upper and lower cabinets hang level and flush against the wall studs. It also prevents grease, steam, and pests from penetrating open framing cavities behind the cabinetry. Before the drywall goes up, verify that solid wood blocking has been installed between the studs so your cabinet screws have secure structural backing when it comes time for mounting.",
