Drywall Invoice Template

A drywall invoice documents sheetrock installation including hanging, taping, mudding, sanding, and finishing labor plus materials. Generate professional drywall contractor invoices with NetInvoice's free template designed for residential and commercial drywall work.

Why this invoice template matters

Drywall work involves multiple stages that customers don't always understand. A detailed invoice separates hanging from finishing, shows material costs for sheets and compound, and documents the number of coats applied. This helps customers see why quality finishing takes time and justifies the cost difference between basic level 3 finish and smooth level 5. Clear invoicing also helps track which job stages are most profitable and provides documentation for change orders when wall configurations differ from original plans.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do drywall contractors charge for installation?
Drywall is priced per square foot ($1.50-$3.00/sq ft installed) or separately: hanging ($0.40-$0.70/sq ft), taping/mudding ($0.40-$0.75/sq ft), finishing ($0.35-$0.60/sq ft). Higher ceilings, texture, and finish levels increase costs.
What are drywall finish levels and how do they affect pricing?
Finish levels range from 0 (no finishing) to 5 (smooth glass-like). Level 3 ($1.50/sq ft) works for texture, level 4 ($2.00/sq ft) for flat paint, level 5 ($2.50-$3.50/sq ft) for critical lighting. Always specify level on invoices.
Should drywall invoices separate materials from labor?
Yes, show drywall sheets, compound, tape, and supplies separately from labor. This transparency helps customers understand material quality choices and makes change orders easier to calculate.
How do you charge for drywall repair versus new installation?
Repairs are typically charged hourly ($60-$90/hr) or per patch ($75-$300) depending on size. New installation uses square footage pricing. Always specify on invoices whether work is repair or new construction.
