Hello.
I've been working on finishing my basement up for some time. But am confused on how to do the ceiling and pot lights.
Right now we have all the walls done with drywall we just need to put in the lgihting and the celing drywall then we can mud and paint.
So how is the ceiling attached? special scews or the normal wall screws? i understand that we need some 2x2 joists to go across teh ceiling...is that right? that seems easy enough to do...
but what about pot lights. they attach to the joists that were already there...so when the drywall is put on wont the pot lights be 2inches too high. :confused:
please explain this all to me.
