Frequently Asked Questions

Drywall costs depend on project size, board type, ceiling height, framing condition, access, number of corners and openings, taping requirements and the desired finish level. Compare quotes that clearly separate installation, taping, sanding and finishing.

A drywall project may include board delivery, hanging, corner bead, taping, joint compound, sanding, finishing and cleanup. Priming, painting, insulation, framing and disposal may be separate, so confirm the exact scope in writing.

Level 5 is a high-finish drywall treatment that adds a skim coat over the surface after the joints and fasteners are finished. It may be considered for demanding lighting conditions, smooth walls or high-end finishes.

Damaged drywall can often be patched or replaced after the source of the leak has been corrected and the area is dry. Larger water damage may require removal of affected material and inspection of the cavity before refinishing.

Some drywall contractors remove textured or popcorn ceilings and refinish the surface. Before disturbing older ceiling materials, ask whether testing or specialized handling may be appropriate for the property and material involved.
