The cost to tape drywall depends on factors such as project size, drywall condition, finish level, labor rates, and material requirements. Homeowners may pay more when walls require extensive preparation, multiple coats of joint compound, sanding, or a higher-quality finish. Larger projects can sometimes have lower per-square-foot costs because labor and setup are spread across more area. Regional labor rates also influence the overall price.
