Question about sheetrock Estimate

Yowsa! I just had 1200sq ft with 12' cathedrals, greenboarded and plastered for 5500$

Not intentionally, but I heard a local quote for sheet rock the other day. Since I know the person I ask and it was only to hang the board.

The quote was for 13 cent per sf of board hung...no skim coat. These were high ceilings (10ft). YMMV.

Hmm.. 1100 could be 133 linear feet of wall. 9 foot ceilings makes

I bought sheets for around $15. A friend had his place drywalled by pros who charged damn near what I bought the sheets for - let's say $20

- including materials. The price was so close I wondered why I went through the damn trouble to do it myself.

So, that's about a thousand bucks, absolute bare minumum, for a single perfectly square room with efficient usage of 1/2" 4x12 sheets. In the real world, expect the price to go up substantially. Either way, $12k sounds way high. I'd get another estimate.

Thank you all for your reponses.

Hi I do drywall among other things. Most SF (Square Foot) prices are very close from place to place. Im in Canada but I know US is very similar. Rough estimate on your part would be (without seeing it)

the only things that would make it extra are special features like half inch reveals or around door chamfers or lots of bulkheads or beed work in where the tapers work is cut out for him. If theres new to existing well its a &(^&%( so iwould make worth my while as well and maybe add

but not 12000 dollars unless your small place is ritzy.
