Quoted Drywall Costs

[Jonathan Riordan]

Hello everyone, 

I recently just closed on my second home that I will be house hacking and am doing a significant rehab. A majority of the house is now gutted and I will be replacing most of the drywall throughout the house. I obtained a quote for drywall hanging and finishing that comes out to around $60 per sheet hung and finished (4x8 ft drywall sheets) and that is just for the labor, I pay materials. Does anyone have any recent rates in the Atlanta area that I can compare this to? the house is only around 900 square feet and I will be doing walls, ceilings in 2 bedrooms, and a skim coat on the ceilings in the other rooms. Labor only was quoted at $3,300, materials will be around $1500. 

Thanks so much!

$4800 for a 1000 SF house, walls. ceilings, mudded and textured, is not bad.
