What affects the price
When you are budgeting for drywall work, several factors determine the final bill. The total square footage is the biggest driver, but the complexity of the space matters just as much. High ceilings, intricate corners, and multiple levels require more labor and specialized equipment. If you need repairs, the size and depth of the hole, plus the difficulty of matching existing textures, change the scope. Materials like moisture-resistant board for bathrooms or fire-rated panels for garages also add to the budget. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
About this service
This material, often called Type X, contains glass fibers and other additives that help slow the spread of fire.

Because the panels are denser and heavier than standard board, labor factors influence the cost; exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
