Drywall estimate and invoice templates
Drywall is priced per sheet or per square foot hung and finished, with texture and paint as add-ons. These spreadsheets come set up for that, with working totals, tax and deposit, and an example water-damaged ceiling replacement to start from.
Free, no sign-up. Works in Excel, Google Sheets and Apple Numbers.

Tips for drywall estimates
- Count sheets for hanging and square feet for finishing. The units differ for a reason.
- State the finish level (GA-214 levels 0-5) in the description so expectations match.
- Add a line for the return trip if paint is done on a separate visit.
Drywall terms included
- Texture match is as close as practical; exact matches to aged texture aren't guaranteed.
- Dust control is set up, but some fine dust is unavoidable during sanding.
Plus standard validity and payment terms. Edit all of them to match your policies and local law.
FAQ
Drywall template questions
Have a question we didn't cover? Book a demo and ask a product specialist.
What finish level should I quote?
Level 4 is common for painted walls with flat or eggshell paint; level 5 is for critical lighting and glossy finishes. Name it on the estimate.
How do I handle texture matching?
Price it as its own line and say in Terms that an exact match isn't guaranteed.
Do the formulas work in Google Sheets?
Yes. The line totals, subtotal, taxable amount, tax, deposit and balance use standard functions (SUM, SUMIF, ROUND, IF) that work in Excel, Google Sheets and Numbers.
