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

A drywall patch is a method for fixing holes, whether they are small dings from door handles or larger areas damaged by water or plumbing repairs. Small holes can be filled with compound, while larger holes often require a metal mesh backing or a new piece of gypsum board inserted into the opening. You need this service if your walls have visible damage that needs to be brought back to a smooth, level finish before painting.

Frequently asked in Philadelphia

Is there a difference between drywall and sheetrock?

Sheetrock is a brand of gypsum drywall, so they're essentially the same product used for walls and ceilings. In Philadelphia, you'll hear both terms used commonly. Both provide a smooth, consistent surface for painting and finishing your interior walls.

Can I do drywall myself?

Patching very small drywall holes yourself is possible, but getting a perfectly smooth, unnoticeable repair can be quite challenging. Matching textures and avoiding visible seams requires practice and the right tools. For a professional finish in your Philadelphia home, hiring a pro is often the best route.

How much does 1000 sq ft of drywall cost?

Is drywall soundproof?

Standard drywall provides some sound dampening but is not truly soundproof. For significant noise reduction in your Philadelphia residence, consider specialized acoustic drywall or additional insulation. The effectiveness depends on the type of sound and the overall wall construction.

How much should a drywall repair cost?
