So my FIL came over to help me extend an existing wall out in order to turn an open game room into an enclosed room with a door. I have no experience doing construction like this, but he's done it before.
Problem is after putting up the drywall, the new drywall is about 1/4" indented in from the existing wall. I was hoping for the new part of the wall to be exactly flush with the existing wall. We are at the stage where all the new drywall is up and screwed in and we've mudded the screw holes. Haven't touched the uneven joint yet where the new and old drywall meet.
Anyone have advice on possible options? I'm hoping at this point that maybe there is a way to gradually blend out this 1/4" difference somehow to where it's less noticeable than just an abrupt, uneven edge.
