Drywall-Bullnose Corners
Drywall with Bullnose Corners
From: Aisha Comparison of 3 bullnose corners: 1 1/2 inch radius 3/4 inch radius 3/8 inch radius The middle 3/4 " radius is most common and the 3/4" corner bead is commonly sold in home improvement stores and by most drywall contractors.
1 1/2 inch radius corner (3 inch diameter circle a little bigger than a tennis ball) 3/4 inch radius corner (1 1/2 inch diameter circle the size of an old silver dollar 3/8 inch radius corner (3/4 inch diameter circle a little smaller than a nickel)
"Carl,
What is your opinion on bullnose corners? What about the baseboards? I've heard some contractors use 90° angle baseboard on bullnosed corners...can that
be a problem?"
Hi Aisha,
I love bullnose corners.
Yes, 90° (angle) baseboards, besides looking like an amateur trimmed your house, can be a problem when installing tile or hardwood flooring. It’s tough to cut to fit and you end up with a lot space to fill, and there is no satisfactory way to fill this space.
Here’s a simple solution from Distinctive Woodcraft West

There are other companies too.
Good job of “thinking ahead”!
Carl
