What affects the price

When you get a quote for drywall work, the final number depends on a few specific things. The total square footage of the area is usually the biggest factor, but the condition of your current walls matters just as much. If there is significant water damage, mold, or complex electrical rerouting behind the panels, labor time increases. Access to the space, ceiling height, and the level of finish you want—like smooth versus textured—also play a role. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

Also known as Type X, this board is manufactured with glass fibers and a denser gypsum core to slow the spread of fire. Building codes typically require it in garages, furnace rooms, or between apartments. It is heavier than standard board, which can affect installation labor costs. If your local inspector mandates fire-rated materials, this is the specific product you need to use. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
