Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
For small holes or cracks, which fall into the basic tier, typical costs are $7.50–$30 per square foot. However, if the project is very small (under 10 sq ft) and complex, it could move into the premium tier at $85–$100 per sq ft. A handyperson might charge around $60 per hour for these smaller projects.
Projects including mudding and sanding typically fall under the mid-range tier, costing $50–$85 per square foot for medium-sized areas (10–25 sq ft). For larger areas that require extensive taping, mudding, and sanding, costs can easily reach $800 or more.
For a 16-inch by 24-inch drywall patch, including mudding and texture, a fair price would generally be in the range of $200–$250. This estimate accounts for both material costs (around $52) and 2–3 hours of labor at $45–$75 per hour.
