I recently added an entryway that has 20 inch footings. The drywallers left a 1/2 inch gap between the footings and the drywall. I assumed the would drywall all the way down to the top of the footings but they didn't. Is there a reason you can't or shouldn't do this? If so what can I fill the gap with because I can't use wood trim in these spots. Is there a special material needed?
I'm assuming that these are concrete stem walls. Concrete holds moisture and if the drywall were placed on top of the concrete it would wick up and cause mold and mildew.
