Maybe I just haven't been around long enough to ever see this until now. We recently purchased a new house that I am gutting and repairing all the mistakes made by the builder that built the house in 76'. Upon removing the drywall we noticed that the corners where the walls meet the ceiling were not taped at all but just caulked!!!! I thought that this was a mistake and they just forgot a wall but it was throughout the house. One of my guys said that two of the people he had worked with in the past did this and said it "was the only way to go, won't crack this way".
I have never heard of this and decided that it was done by people that obviously had no clue what they were doing, am I wrong?
Have you guys ever seen this? Was that ever acceptable? The builder that built the house was known for cutting corners but this is unacceptable, isn't it?
