I am putting together a quote to finish a friends basement and am looking for someone to mud and tape the drywall that we're going to hang because I pretty much suck at it. :D

It's about 720 square foot basement.

Based on my measurements it will take 50 sheets of 1/2" for the walls and 27 sheets of 5/8" for the ceiling.

I need someone that knows what they're doing, no bubbles in the tape, smooth corners, etc. Materials will be provided and probably some tools if you need them, but I would imagine that if you know what you're doing you probably have your own. ;)


At this point I just need a ballpark figure to finish the quote. They aren't rich so we may be doing this a piece at a time so the job probably won't happen for a couple of months.


See attached image for the layout of the walls.

Thanks,
Brian
