What it costs

What drywall costs in San Francisco

We never speak to the businesses listed above, so there is no local median to publish and we will not invent one. Every figure below is our own national band for this job, moved only by how soon you need somebody.

Our estimate for Drywall and ceiling repair in San Francisco, CA, by what drives the price
How soon you need itTypicalRange
Scheduled visitBooked in advance, no urgency multiplier applied$650$250 to $7,000
Same dayOur band multiplied by 1.12$730$280 to $7,840
Emergency calloutOur band multiplied by 1.35$880$340 to $9,450

Every row is the same band with the urgency multiplier the search page applies, so the table can never contradict the headline number. There is no regional index behind any of it. The figures do not change with your metro, and the copy says so rather than dressing a national band up as a local rate.

What drives drywall demand around San Francisco

Ground floor commercial space here is mostly pre-war, the kitchen behind it is small, and the only way in is the front door on a graded street, so getting a compressor or a water heater in and the old one out is half the job and worth settling on the phone. Fog carries salt across the western half of the city most mornings and leaves rooftop equipment and outdoor disconnects wet through the hours they would otherwise be drying.

Before you book anything

Checks worth doing first, before you call anyone in San Francisco

The median listing here sits 14 mi from the metro center, close enough that owners tend to call before checking the obvious. These are the checks that end the most calls for this fault.

Try a quick fix first

Some issues resolve without a truck roll. Two minutes now can save the callout.

  1. 1

    Fix the leak before the ceiling. Board replaced under an active leak fails again and you pay twice, which is the most common sequence on this service.

  2. 2

    Check whether the wall is fire-rated. Walls between tenancies, around stairs and around plant rooms usually are, and reinstating one needs the right board and the right detail, not just a patch.

  3. 3

    Photograph the damage and keep the invoice if a delivery or a contractor caused it. Recovering the cost is much easier with both.

  4. 4

    Ask whether painting is included. Patch and paint quoted separately is where most disputes on this job come from.

Questions owners ask

Drywall in San Francisco: the questions we get

The answers below hold anywhere. Where California rules or permits change one of them, ask the business to put it on the written price before you agree to the visit.

Find local trades
Who is licensed to do this work in California?
The classification that squarely covers it is C-2 insulation and acoustical or C-9 drywall. Every listing above shows the classification, the license number and the date we read it off the register, so you can check it against the state rather than against us. Worth knowing: the classifications do not separate commercial work from residential, so nothing here proves a business specializes in premises like yours.
How far out do these businesses sit?
We hold 10,161 inside 25 miles of the San Francisco metro center, 252 of them holding a classification for the trade itself and the rest general contractors who can subcontract it, the median one 14 mi out, and 10,161 publish a license number. Distance is straight line from the metro center to the address each business filed with its licensing authority, which is often a home, so we never print it.
