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

You need this service whenever you have new wall installation or significant repairs. Applying and smoothing the mud is a multi-step process that requires sanding to ensure the surface is perfectly flat before you apply paint or primer. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Frequently asked in San Francisco

Is there a difference between drywall and sheetrock?

Sheetrock is a specific brand of drywall, and many people in San Francisco use the terms interchangeably. The actual product is gypsum board, which is gypsum plaster pressed between two layers of paper. When you're looking for drywall services, you're essentially looking for someone who works with this common interior wall material. It's the standard for most homes and buildings.

Can I do drywall myself?

Hanging, taping, mudding, and sanding correctly require specific techniques and practice. Mistakes can result in visible seams or an uneven texture that detracts from your home's appearance. For top-quality results, experienced pros are recommended.

How much does 1000 sq ft of drywall cost?

Is drywall soundproof?

Standard drywall offers some sound dampening, but it is not considered soundproof. If you're looking for enhanced sound isolation in your San Francisco home, especially in a city known for its density, you might need additional solutions. These could include denser drywall types, specialized insulation, or acoustic treatments. The pros can guide you on the best options.

How much should a drywall repair cost?
