Drywall Install row = hang + tape & mud + sand + texture all-in. Default $15/SF (50–200 SF); change to $20 (<50 SF), $12 (200+ SF), or $30 (cure-time premium).  ·  Sheet ref: Mold = Moisture Type X 5/8 · Fire = Type X 5/8 (32 SF/sheet)  ·  Insulation: Walls R-13 ≈ 104 SF · Ceilings R-30/R-38 ≈ 64 SF
Drywall — Repair Pricing Tiers (small/mid patch sweeps — NOT full cuts)
Combined $/SF for quick quoting repair sweep work (nail holes, scuffs, small/medium patches throughout a unit). Use this for turn-unit prep, NOT for full sheet replacements or large wall cuts (see SF Tier Ladder below for those).
TierCombined $/SFUse Case
Light $150 – $550 Pre-rental punch — minor nail holes, scuffs, minor patches absorbed into the per-floor allowance (treated as labor in margin calc)
Medium $1.25/SF 5–10 holes, no major damage — small/medium patches throughout unit
Heavy $1.85/SF 10–20 holes, some medium/large patches — extensive sweep work, some sections requiring full re-mud and texture matching. Scope beyond this → SF Tier Ladder
These tiers are intentionally aggressive — they trade premium per-patch pricing for volume turn-unit contracts where competitors charge $300–$500 per individual patch with a minimum service fee. When a unit needs many patches in a sweep, the per-SF tier model beats per-patch flat rates and lets us win on volume. If scope expands beyond repair (full sheet cuts, water damage, framing) step up to the SF Tier Ladder below.
Drywall — SF Tier Ladder (full cuts & replacements — line-item builds)
Use this ladder for full sheet cuts, replacements, and structural drywall work. "Drywall Install" row covers hang + tape & mud + sand + texture all-in. Rate scales by area — larger area amortizes cure time and setup cost.
Area SizeLabor / SF
(Install all-in)		+ MaterialNotes
< 50 SF
small-area cuts		 $20/SF +$1/SF High per-SF premium for small footprint — setup, mobilization, and cure cycles don't scale down
50 – 200 SF
mid-size installs		 $15/SF +$1/SF Standard new-install rate — full hang, tape & mud, sand, texture. Use $15 as the Drywall Install row default
200+ SF
large area / full rooms		 $12/SF +$1/SF Volume rate for full-room or multi-room installs — still covers all labor phases, cure amortizes over large area
For 200+ SF jobs, manually set the Drywall Install row to $12/SF in the calc above.
Drywall — Insulation Pricing

Insulation Install Labor $2.00/SF Cutting, fitting, and stapling batts — walls and ceilings
R-13 Batt — Walls Material $1.50/SF Standard 2×4 wall cavity (3.5"). Approx 104 SF per standard room
R-19 Batt — Walls Material $1.75/SF 2×6 wall cavity (5.5"). Exterior walls, cold-climate upgrade
R-30 Batt — Ceiling Material $2.00/SF Attic floor / ceiling cavity. Approx 64 SF per standard room
R-38 Batt — Ceiling Material $2.25/SF High-performance ceiling / attic upgrade. Thicker batt, same install rate
Default calc row uses $1.50/SF for material — adjust to match the actual R-value specified. Labor rate stays $2.00/SF regardless of R-value.

Baseboard — LF Formula
Pick a scope below and divide unit floor SF by the divisor to get baseboard LF.
ScopeFormulaExample (1207 SF)
Habitable only
bedrooms + living + dining + hallway		 SF ÷ 6 ~201 LF
Standard
+ closets		 SF ÷ 5.5 ~219 LF
Full
+ cove in baths		 SF ÷ 5 ~241 LF
Use Habitable when bathrooms have tile baseboards (no wood trim) and closets stay carpeted with original base. Use Standard when closets get new base but bathrooms still use tile/existing. Use Full when bathrooms get vinyl cove base added.
Baseboard — Pricing Tiers
Per-LF labor ranges (West Coast / WA market, 2026). Pair with the LF formula above to size the job.
TierRateUse Case
Production / Aggressive $2.00 – $3.00/LF New construction or vacant turns, large-volume contracts, clean walls — production speed
Standard Commercial $3.00 – $4.50/LF Most multifamily turns — occupied or recently vacated, normal cuts & corners
Premium / Finish-quality $5.00 – $8.00/LF Custom homes, hospitality, retail finish — complex layouts, scribed corners, stain-grade
Rates are labor only — baseboard stock, cove, fasteners, and waste billed separately (typically $1–1.50/LF MDF, $2+/LF hardwood). Industry data: West Coast labor averages $2.50–$4.50/LF; new construction $3–$5/LF; replacement work $4–$7/LF. Bump within range for taller profiles (5"+) or scribe-fit work on uneven walls.
Door Casing — LF Formula
Each door face = 2 legs + 1 head. Both faces cased = double the LF.
Door HeightPer Face (1 side)Both FacesExample (11 doors, both faces)
7'-0" (standard) 8 + 8 + 3 = 19 LF 38 LF 418 LF
8'-0" (tall) 10 + 10 + 3 = 23 LF 46 LF 506 LF
7' jambs use 8-foot stock per leg (covers jamb + miter waste). 8' jambs need 10-foot stock since 8' stock has zero margin for cuts. Head ≈ door width rounded up. Set LF / Door in Variables to 38 for 7' doors or 46 for 8' doors.
Door Casing — Pricing Tiers
Per-LF labor ranges. Pair with the LF formula above.
TierRateUse Case
Production / Aggressive $1.25 – $1.50/LF High-volume turn work, competitive bid environment
Standard Commercial $1.50 – $2.00/LF Most multifamily turns
Premium / Finish-quality $2.50 – $3.50/LF Custom homes, hospitality, retail finish
Material (casing stock) $1.00/LF Pre-primed MDF or finger-joint pine casing — billed separately from labor
Labor rates do NOT include casing stock — add the Material row above (at $1/LF) to your LF total to bill stock. Bump labor tier for mitered returns, hardwood (stain-grade), or shimming uneven jambs.
