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.

What moves the price: The low end is basic taped walls or a small patch; the top end is ceilings, high or vaulted spaces, and smooth Level 5 finishes.

| Drywall installed & finished, per 4x8 sheet (32 sq ft) | $110-$150 $70 to $200 per sheet |

What changes the price of mudding in Oakville
- 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.

Why did a tiny drywall patch cost me over $200?
Almost every contractor has a minimum charge just to show up, and even a 'quick' patch still needs taping, two or three coats of mud with drying time between each, sanding, and then texture and paint matching - often across two visits. You're paying for that labour, not the $15 of materials.
Is plaster repair more expensive than drywall repair?
Usually yes. Plaster, common in older Canadian homes, is more labour-intensive to match and repair, so it runs higher per square foot than modern drywall. A minor hairline crack is inexpensive, but larger plaster cracks or ceiling work climb quickly.
Should I repair drywall myself or hire a pro?
A single nail hole or hairline crack is an easy DIY with a $15-$40 kit. But once you're dealing with a hole bigger than your hand, water damage, a ceiling, or matching an existing texture, a pro's finish is usually worth it - a bad patch shows through paint under any raking light.
