As a result of Hurricane Katrina, I've installed new sheetrock in "most" of the house, including ceilings. In half of the house, though, the rock is cut (and now replaced) at the 4-foot level around the permiter of the rooms. In total, I suppose I installed about 100+ sheets of 4X8.
The floater came yesterday and said he'd tape and mud everything (and blow in the ceilings) for $2,500 in labor and $500 in materials. My house is about 1,600 sq feet and I'm just wondering how much of his price is "hurricane-driven" and how much is true to the trade.
If any of you have had recent experience with this particular type of service - either receiving or providing - I'd apprecite hearing from you...
Thanks.
