Our Reliable Drywall Takeoff Approach for Busy Drywall Contractors

At Daniel Estimating, we follow a clear and accurate process to provide accurate drywall estimates tailored to your project. We start by measuring the total square footage of walls, ceilings, and partitions. We carefully account for windows, doors, and other cutouts to avoid material waste. Next, we calculate the number of drywall sheets required, typically using standard 4×8 or 4×12 sizes, with an added 10–15% buffer for cuts and adjustments. 

We then estimate the quantities of joint compounds, tape, corner beads, and fasteners based on seam lengths and intersections. Finally, our labour cost assessment relies on RS Means data and local rates, factoring in project complexities like high ceilings or intricate designs. With this methodical approach, you receive clear, reliable estimates that help you plan your drywall project.

Carlos

San Diego, Commercial Contractor

“We had a 30K sq. ft. office remodel with custom arched ceilings. Daniel’s team flagged the extra waste and labor upfront. Their takeoff was so precise, we finished under budget. Outsourcing was a game-changer.”

Leah

Nashville, Residential Renovator

“I used to eyeball drywall quantities and always over-ordered. Their team calculated exact sheet counts, screws, and mud down to 5% waste. Now I buy only what I need. Huge cost saver! Forgot a bid was due for a condo complex. Sent blueprints at 9 PM, had the takeoff by midnight. Won the job the next morning. These folks are wizards.”
