Expert Drywall Takeoff Services
At USA Estimating Solutions, our drywall takeoff services are designed to provide contractors and
subcontractors with highly accurate and detailed quantity takeoffs that form the foundation of successful
drywall installation bids. We understand that drywall work encompasses multiple components—including gypsum
boards, metal studs, joint treatments, insulation, and finishing materials—and requires precision to ensure
cost-effective and efficient project execution.
Our team leverages years of industry expertise to interpret architectural drawings, specifications, and
project schedules with meticulous attention to detail. This ensures every sheet of drywall, every linear
foot of framing, and every square foot of finishing is accounted for, helping our clients avoid costly
material shortages or excess ordering.
What Our Drywall Takeoff Services Include
- Sheetrock/gypsum board quantity takeoffs: Measurement of standard,
moisture-resistant, fire-rated, and specialty drywall types.
- Metal stud framing: Precise counts and lengths of steel studs, tracks, and
furring channels.
- Suspended and acoustical ceilings: Takeoffs for grid systems, ceiling tiles, and
associated hardware.
- Joint compound and tape: Estimations of mud quantities and tape footage for
seamless finishes.
- Insulation and vapor barriers: Measurement for drywall assemblies requiring
thermal or moisture control layers.
- Corner beads, trims, and accessories: Inclusion of all necessary metal and
plastic trims, edge beads, control joints, and fasteners.
- Finishing materials: Estimation of primers, sealants, and paint preparation
materials as required.
The Importance of Accurate Drywall Takeoffs
