Last Thursday I had a third and final drywall estimate. All three of the drywallers I had come in for estimates came recommended, and I suspect they each would have done a fine job, but I had to choose one. The estimate prices came in at $2000, $1200, and $1500. I eliminated the $2000 quote from consideration and debated the pros and cons of the remaining options.
$1200
Pros: Very eager to get the work, open schedule, least expensive
Cons: Didn't know the difference between horizontal and vertical, schedule was too open, wanted payment on delivery of supplies
$1500
Pros: "Pay me when I finish, " suggested I clean up the window frames before drywall was installed, very busy
Cons: More expensive
I ended up going with the $1500 option, I am assuming that they drwaller who has a busy schedule in this current housing market must be really good.
This is what things looked like on Sunday night (I love daylight savings time! it's still light outside in these photos).
