Ocala Drywall Experts
Residential Drywall Installation in Ocala and Marion County
Residential drywall installation runs $2.00 to $3.50 per square foot, hung and finished, for Ocala and Marion County homes. That covers new construction, additions, remodels, and any room where the old board is coming down and new board is going up.
Most homes in this area are built with standard eight-foot ceilings and wood-frame interior walls, which keeps labor straightforward. Vaulted ceilings, open-concept great rooms, and bonus rooms with knee walls add cutting and corner work, which is reflected in the quote before we start.
New Construction and Additions
On new construction or an addition, we hang board over fresh framing, which usually goes faster than working around existing finishes, furniture, and flooring in an occupied home. We coordinate with the framing and insulation stages so the board goes up once the walls are ready for it.
Standard half-inch board covers most living spaces; we step up to moisture-resistant board in bathrooms and laundry rooms as a matter of course.
Remodels and Renovated Rooms
Remodel work means protecting what is already finished, the floors, the cabinets, the trim, while we cut and hang new board around them. We tape off and cover floors before cutting, and we haul out scrap and dust at the end of each day so the rest of the house stays livable.
Matching an existing wall's finish level matters here too. If the rest of the house has a smooth Level 4 finish, the new section needs to match it exactly.

- Moisture-resistant board in wet areas
- Floors and fixtures protected during the job
- Daily cleanup of dust and scrap
Whole-Room and Whole-House Jobs
A full room, four walls and a ceiling, often lands between $900 and $2,400 all in, depending on size and ceiling height. Whole-house jobs scale from there, priced by total square footage once we walk the home and measure every room.
We sequence larger jobs room by room so taping and sanding in one area does not hold up hanging in the next, which keeps a whole-house project moving.
What to Expect
We measure every room, confirm board type for each space, and put the full scope in writing before any cutting starts. A single room usually takes two to four days from hanging to final sand; larger projects take longer and we give you a schedule up front.
Walkthroughs happen at the end, under good light, so you can see the finish before we call the job done.
