For drywall contractors
Drywall estimating software that prices the finish, not just the board
Drywall is quoted by area and lost on labour. BuildersBridge estimates hang, tape and finish as separate line items, schedules the crews that do each, and tracks actual hours against what was bid.
The challenge
A drywall bid built on square footage alone hides where the money goes. Hanging is predictable; taping and finishing to a Level 5 is not, and a board count that ignores waste, ceiling height and corner bead turns a thin job negative.
How BuildersBridge helps drywall contractors
- Quote hang, tape and finish as separate priced lines
- Board count and square footage with a waste factor you set
- Crew scheduling across hang, tape and sand stages
- Labour hours tracked against the bid, per stage
Frequently asked questions
- What is drywall estimating software?
- Software that turns a board count and square footage into a priced quote covering hanging, taping and finishing, then tracks the labour actually spent against that quote. The point is catching a finish stage running long while the job is still open.
- Can I price finish levels separately?
- Yes. Hang, tape and finish are separate line items, so a Level 5 finish can carry its own rate rather than being buried in a single square-foot price.
- Does it handle waste and ceiling height?
- You set the waste factor on the estimate, and quantities are yours to adjust per line — the AI drafts the structure, you set the numbers that depend on the building.
