Pressurized (temporary) walls in DC?
Hello all,
I'm moving with my friend into a one bedroom, and we'd like to split the living room to create an additional bedroom. Pressurized (temporary) walls are a dime a dozen in New York, but I'm having a lot of trouble finding services in DC.
Any recommendations?
Thank you!

Buy them in New York and bring them down here. See a show and have a meal while you are there. Or perhaps the company could ship them?
If not, you could build a wall out of 2x4s and sheetrock although anchoring it might make some holes. Put insulation between it for soundproofing.

....and hope your landlord and/or the city don't find out, because they have gotten pretty serious about enforcing fire codes in rentals. |

pressurized wall
Did you all have the NY wall contractor come down yet? If not, I would be interested in getting one too, in the next two weeks.
If not, there is a company here in DC who apparently does them, Barreto and Sons contractors.
