Average price for drywall installation — Conroe, TX
Last updated: September 24, 2026
What affects the price
When you are budgeting for drywall, the final number depends on a few specific factors. The size of the room is the biggest driver, but the complexity of the installation matters just as much. For example, high ceilings, intricate corners, or tight spaces require more labor time. If you need special moisture-resistant boards for a bathroom or fire-rated panels for a garage, material costs will shift accordingly. Finishing levels also change the price; a smooth Level 5 finish involves more sanding and prep than a standard garage finish. We provide exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
About this service
The total cost for hanging and finishing drywall depends on the size of the room, ceiling height, and how many corners or obstacles the crew needs to navigate. Complex layouts or specialty fire-rated boards add to the labor time.
