Sound familiar?
The stuff nobody tells you about running a drywall & installation business.
Water damage scopes that keep growing
Open the ceiling, find more damage, and now the original quote is an argument.
Finish levels lost in translation
The customer expected smooth, you priced a standard finish — and the walkthrough gets tense.
Here’s the fix
Built around how drywall contractors actually work.
Patch-to-basement pricing ready to tap
Small patches to full hang-and-finish by the square foot, texture matching and Level 5 upgrades — quoted in minutes.
Scopes everyone can read
Hang, tape, finish level, texture and paint as separate line items, so the walkthrough has no surprises.
Change orders without the fight
Open the wall, find more damage, send an updated quote by text — approved before the work continues.
Payment when the dust settles
Customers accept and pay by card from the proposal link, deposits up front for bigger jobs.
