Boxing in Skylights
My old skylights are open to the attic crawl space. I want to box them in with sheetrock so they look like the photo here (which I found in another forum post). Can anyone recommend a handyman or contractor guy to do this?

In addition to the moisture-resistant wallboard use a paint that will help prevent mold and mildew growth such as Moldex products:

I am not affiliated with either – I just completed research on my own and found this to be the best solution for the mold growing on the skylight box over my shower in my bathroom (12 feet in the air).

Thanks, that’s a good tip on the moisture-resistant wallboard.
And thanks for the lead on the contractor.
Use moisture resistant / mold resistant wall board.
