  1. Thanks for the replies. Think i'm going to go ahead and insulate it now. Maybe get some of that diamond plate trim for the bottom sections to prevent accidents with the lawnmower and snowblower. Now to convince the wife...

  2. If you have no plans to insolate or paint why drywall? The price of drywall is nuts here.

    I'd just use thin plywood/chip board as it's likely cheaper than drywall. Not to mention it's easier to hang, tougher and easier to nail things to for storage.

    I can get 4'x8'x5/8" sheets for less than $6 each not a bad price for my wallet. I also prefer the look of the taped drywall to plywood being on the walls. Plus I'd like to having something paintable in case the wife gets an urge to paint. We are saving one wall that will be half drywall and one half pegboard for hanging stuff. The only thing that will be attached to the wall with drywall will be a couple cabinets, which of course will be on the studs.

    I'm considering insulation if it would be needed to keep the drywall purty. I might also want it so I can work in the garage on chillier spring and autumn days.

  3. Just had a new garage built and I'd like to clean up the inside with some drywall and a little pegboard. The garage won't be heated, if I just put the drywall up will in be just fine? Or should I still insulate the walls a bit. Will summer heat and humidity and severe cold in the winter eventually make it ugly? Just going to tape and sand, probably won't paint.

    Thanks.
