Our Services
Six core services covering every aspect of commercial drywall, from metal stud framing to premium Level 5 finishes.
Drywall Installation
US Drywall provides full-scope commercial drywall installation for projects from 10,000 to 500,000+ square feet. We serve multifamily, student housing, assisted living, and commercial/industrial sectors across Kentucky and the Southeast with crews of 20 to 60+ finishers.
Our commercial drywall installation covers the complete scope - from board delivery and staging through hanging, taping, finishing, and final inspection. We work with all major gypsum board manufacturers including Georgia-Pacific, CertainTeed, and National Gypsum.
What sets us apart is our ability to scale rapidly. When your schedule demands acceleration, we can mobilize additional crews within days, not weeks. Our integrated approach provides seamless coordination between framing and board hanging, eliminating the typical delays that occur when separate subs manage these interdependent scopes.
- Projects from 10,000 to 500,000+ SF
- All finish levels (Level 1 through Level 5)
- Coordinated framing-to-drywall delivery
- Rapid crew scaling for accelerated schedules
Frequently Asked Questions
Commercial drywall installation in Kentucky typically costs $1.50 to $3.50 per square foot for materials and labor, depending on finish level, ceiling height, and project complexity. A 200,000 SF multifamily project averages $2.00-$2.75 per square foot. Contact US Drywall for a detailed bid based on your project specifications.
Timeline depends on project size and complexity. A 100,000 SF multifamily project typically takes 8-12 weeks for framing and drywall. A 300,000 SF project may take 16-24 weeks. US Drywall can accelerate timelines by scaling crew sizes - we've staffed up to 60 finishers on time-critical projects.
Metal Stud Framing
US Drywall provides commercial metal stud framing for interior walls, ceilings, soffits, and structural partitions. Our crews frame to exact specifications, ensuring seamless coordination for projects requiring both wood and metal structural systems.
Metal stud framing is the backbone of every commercial drywall project. Our framers work from approved shop drawings and coordinate closely with MEP trades to ensure wall cavities accommodate all required rough-ins before boarding begins.
By keeping framing and drywall under one roof, we eliminate the finger-pointing and schedule gaps that plague projects using separate framing and drywall subcontractors.
- Load-bearing and non-load-bearing systems
- Shaft wall and area separation wall framing
- Ceiling and soffit framing systems
- Coordinated with MEP trades and BIM models
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. US Drywall provides metal stud framing as a core service alongside our drywall installation. This means general contractors can work with one subcontractor from rough-in to completed drywall, reducing coordination overhead and schedule conflicts.
Acoustical Ceilings
US Drywall installs acoustical ceiling tile and grid systems for commercial offices, healthcare facilities, educational buildings, and hospitality projects. We work with all major manufacturers and provide NRC-rated systems meeting project-specific sound attenuation requirements.
Acoustical ceilings require precise coordination with above-ceiling MEP systems, fire sprinklers, and lighting. Our crews install standard 2x2 and 2x4 lay-in systems, concealed spline ceilings, and specialty cloud and baffle configurations.
