Crap. We have to do part of the ceiling. FIL had an overflow in the second floor bathroom. Have to replace ceiling and at least one wall. Not sure what the damage is in the basement.
Do I need to sand it or anything?

It really isn't all that terrible. If doing the ceiling, going rent a small set of scaffolding will make the job much easier.

It was one of the things I left to the experts when I built my house.

Do yourself and your back a favor and go rent a Sheetrock jack from Home Depot. I couldn't have done my ceiling without it. It's not terrible, just a pain in the neck.
They make a drill that coutersinks the screws just right or they sell an attachment for standard cordless drills. Buy a few cases of beer and call some buddies over for a few beers.... LOL

check out youtube - I believe there is a video on there that shows how to build a "T" that you walk under the sheetrock - it looked like out of about 3 or 4 2x4's.
