Drywall Estimate & Takeoff Template
Board area to sheets, mud, tape, and a priced bid
An Excel drywall estimating template: enter wall and ceiling area to get sheets, screws, compound, and tape, then price materials, hang and finish labor, and markup into a bid.
Enter wall and ceiling area and the template adds waste, rounds up to whole sheets at your chosen sheet size, and auto-fills screw, joint compound, and tape quantities. Price the materials, set separate hang and finish production rates at your burdened labor rate, and the sheet returns your total cost, bid price, gross profit, and margin.
Includes a drywall Price Book tab for hang, finish levels, texture, and patching. One-time purchase, no subscription.
