Ok, as some of you might know, I have been remodeling a back room of my house. So far I have been able to get some sheetrock up on the ceiling and one wall. I used 1/2" sheetrock on the ceiling and the wall because the wall is an interior wall and had Celotex already on it.
Now my question is for the remaining 2 walls, which are exterior walls, is 1/2" ok or should I use 5/8" sheetrock like I was planning on using?? I was told that 5/8" sheetrock will provide a little better sound deadening for the outside walls. Also, these walls have brand new insulation in them.
Thanks,
