How much does drywalling cost in Windsor?
Most Canadian homeowners pay $2.00-$3.50 per square foot to hang and finish new drywall (materials plus labour) - about $90-$120 per 4x8 sheet, or roughly $1,000-$1,500 for an average 12x12 room. Basic taped walls start near $1.50/sq ft; ceilings, high or vaulted spaces, and smooth Level 5 finishes run to $4.00-$4.50. Repairs are priced separately, typically $150-$400 for a small patch.
In Windsor, NS, typical quotes tend to track the Canadian average, so the table below shows these national figures unchanged.

What changes the price of drywalling in Windsor
- Minimum service-call / small-job premium - most pros charge a shop minimum (roughly $100-$300 in big cities), so one small patch costs far more per square foot than a full-room job with $75-$115/hr labour.
- Ceiling height and access - 9-10 ft ceilings, stairwells, and vaulted or cathedral areas need lifts or scaffolding and add roughly 20-40% to the labour.
- Level of finish - a smooth, paint-ready 'Level 5' finish takes far more mudding and sanding than a basic taped finish that will be textured or hidden, and costs more per square foot.
- Repair size and whether the whole sheet must go - a coin-sized hole is cheap, but a soaked or badly cracked panel means removing, replacing, taping, sanding, and blending an entire sheet.
- Drywall type - moisture-resistant board for bathrooms, fire-rated board, mould-resistant, or soundproof (double-layer) drywall all cost more per sheet than standard 1/2-inch.
- Texture and paint matching - matching existing popcorn, knockdown, or orange-peel texture and then priming/painting is real added labour homeowners routinely forget to budget.
