What affects the price

Drywall projects vary based on a few main factors. The total square footage, the height of your ceilings, and the level of finish required—like smooth wall versus textured—are the biggest drivers. If your walls have significant water damage or require mold remediation, that adds complexity. Accessibility also matters; tight corners or areas requiring scaffolding take more time than open rooms. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

Sanding is the final step of smoothing the dried joint compound so the surface is perfectly flush with the wall. You need to do this after the mud has fully cured, using fine-grit sandpaper or a sanding sponge. It is essential for removing any ridges or lap marks created during the application process. Proper sanding ensures that when you apply your primer and paint, the wall looks uniform and professional.

How is drywall corner bead installed?

They then carefully attach it to the corner using nails, screws, or adhesive methods. This process ensures sharp, durable corners that resist damage. Call us for a free estimate on your project.

What is PVA drywall primer used for?

PVA drywall primer, or polyvinyl acetate primer, is specifically formulated for new drywall surfaces. Its main job is to seal the porous paper and joint compound. This prevents the topcoat of paint from absorbing unevenly, which can lead to a patchy appearance. Using PVA primer ensures a more uniform paint finish. It also helps the paint adhere better to the surface. Call for a free estimate on your drywall finishing needs.

When is fire-resistant drywall necessary?

Fire-resistant drywall, often called Type X, is used in areas requiring increased fire protection. Building codes typically specify its use in attached garages, between dwelling units, or around furnace rooms. It contains glass fibers that help it withstand fire longer than standard drywall. This offers an extra layer of safety for your home. We can arrange for a pro to assess your needs. Get a free estimate today.

What are the standard sizes of drywall panels?

Standard drywall panels, commonly known as sheets, typically come in sizes of 4 feet by 8 feet. You can also find them in longer lengths, such as 4 feet by 12 feet, which are useful for covering larger walls with fewer seams. Thicknesses usually range from 1/4 inch to 5/8 inch, depending on the application. The pros select the appropriate size and thickness for the job. Call for a free estimate on your drywall needs.

What's the average price for installing drywall?
