01
— what we install across Hastings County

Board, tape, corners, coats.

far more than screwing up sheets

Hanging drywall

Sheets set plumb and tight on walls and ceilings, joints staggered, cut cleanly around outlets, windows and light boxes.

Taping & corner bead

Mesh or paper tape over every seam, with corner bead installation on each outside corner — metal or paper-faced bead so edges stay crisp and crack-free.

Screw spotting

Fasteners set just below the surface in a staggered pattern — about 28–32 per sheet — then spotted so nothing shows through paint.

Finishing to a level

Three coats of compound minimum, feathered wide, then sanded and dust-controlled to Level 3, 4 or 5.

Standard 1/2" — walls & ceilings Moisture-resistant — baths & laundry Fire-rated 5/8" Type X — garages, code spots Sound-dampening — bedrooms, media rooms Sag-resistant ceiling board

— across Hastings County

One county, many communities.

Belleville to Bancroft

Belleville — county seat & largest city on the Bay of Quinte, century-brick homes, downtown, hospital, subdivisions & finished basements

The county seat and largest city the county revolves around — the Friendly City on the Bay of Quinte at the mouth of the Moira River, with established century-brick homes on the old streets, a busy downtown and hospital, and growing subdivisions on the edges where a growing commuter population means no shortage of finished lower levels. The drywall installation Belleville homeowners ask for most is basement drywall installation Belleville families book by the room: framed basements boarded, taped and sanded, moisture-aware board near baths and laundry, and a smooth finish under pot lights — all handled by a local crew.

Quinte West & CFB Trenton — Bay of Quinte & Trenton at the Trent–Severn gateway, military-family homes, rentals & new subdivisions

The Bay of Quinte city of Quinte West and Trenton at the western gateway of the Trent–Severn Waterway, and home to CFB Trenton — Canada's largest air force base. That base drives a busy military-family housing market: whole-home drywall on new subdivisions boarded, taped and sanded to your finish level, quick basement and rental turnovers between postings, plus feature walls and additions on established Trenton streets, all on the same written per-square-foot price with no separate travel fee.

Bancroft & the north — Mineral Capital of Canada, cottage country & the Highlands, four-season & rural custom homes with high & vaulted ceilings

The Mineral Capital of Canada in the rugged north of the county — gateway to the Highlands and four-season cottage country. Cottages, waterfront homes and rural custom builds here often mean high and vaulted ceilings and great rooms, boarded plumb, taped and skimmed to a Level 5 where raking light shows every seam. New builds and additions are handled cleanly, taped and sanded to your level with dust kept out of the rest of the home — all on the same per-square-foot pricing.

Stirling, Madoc & central Hastings — Marmora, Tweed & Stirling small towns, farms & the Bay of Quinte shore, family & country homes

The central-Hastings small towns of Stirling, Marmora, Madoc and Tweed — Stirling-Rawdon, family homes, farms and country builds across the rural middle of the county, and south along the Bay of Quinte shore through Deseronto, Tyendinaga and the townships. Detached-home board & finish, higher rural and cathedral ceilings and new builds handled cleanly, taped and sanded to your level with dust kept out of the rest of the home.

03
— drywall installation cost in Hastings County

Priced by the square foot.

per sq ft, never a flat guess

The drywall installation cost across Hastings County comes down to area, so we quote by the square foot rather than a flat guess — board supplied and finished, with one written price and no separate travel fee. As a rough guide, the drywall installation Hastings County jobs we price run about $2.00–$5.50 per square foot turnkey. A Bancroft cottage great room finished to a Level 5 skim under a vaulted ceiling and raking light runs nearer the top; a straightforward Belleville finished basement across standard rooms sits lower in the range. Pick a finish level below; a fuller cost breakdown sits further down, and the full method behind these numbers lives on our drywall installation services page.

    What moves the number
  • Finish level — the biggest lever; Level 5 labour ≈ double Level 4.
  • Ceiling height & access — high ceilings, elevators, stairs add hours.
  • Board type — moisture, fire-rated and sound board cost more than 1/2".
  • Project size — bigger jobs are efficient per foot; small jobs carry a minimum.

The turnkey rate is the whole job — board delivered and hung, taped, beaded, screws spotted, three coats, sanded to your level, daily cleanup. Prefer to buy your own board? A labour-only rate starts around $1.50/sq ft. Per sheet, figure $30–70 to hang and finish a 4×8.

— finish levels explained

What you're actually paying for.

the level your Hastings County room needs
Level 3 · standard
A little texture
Seams and screws taped and coated, surface left with slight texture. Perfect under heavy paint, wallpaper or sprayed texture — the budget-smart call for garages and utility rooms.
Level 4 · most chosen
Smooth, paint-ready
Everything in Level 3 plus an extra coat and careful sanding for an even surface that takes standard flat or eggshell paint cleanly. What most rooms in a home should be.
Level 5 · signature
Glass under any light
A thin skim coat over the entire surface — not just seams and screws. Nothing shows, even under pot lights, big windows or glossy paint. Worth it for feature walls and high ceilings.

06
— how a drywall finish comes together

Raw seam to glass.

same on every Hastings County job
HangScrewTapeMudSand

Each stage has to be right before the next begins — and the mud coats need drying time between them, which is why good drywall can't be rushed. Ceilings go first: a drywall ceiling installation is boarded before the walls, so the wall sheets tuck up under it and support its edges. On residential walls the sheets usually run horizontally, though hanging drywall vertically suits some taller commercial walls — either way the aim is fewer, cleaner joints to finish.

07
— drywall installation FAQ

Answered.

asked all the time

Do you cover all of Hastings County — Belleville and Quinte West?

Yes — right across the county.

None of these towns has its own city page yet, so they're all covered right here on this Hastings County page.

Do you do Bancroft cottages and Highlands four-season homes?

Yes — Bancroft, the Mineral Capital, and the four-season cottage country of the Highlands are a big part of what we cover. Cottages, waterfront homes and rural custom builds here often mean high and vaulted ceilings and great rooms: boarded plumb, feature walls and great rooms skimmed to a Level 5 where raking light shows every flaw, then taped and sanded to your finish level. Sloped and cathedral ceilings are handled cleanly with dust kept out of the rest of the home.

Do you finish basements in Belleville?

We do — finished lower levels are a big part of what we install here. The drywall installation Belleville homeowners book is a framed basement boarded, taped and sanded to your finish level, with moisture-aware board near bathrooms and laundry and a smooth surface under pot lights. That basement drywall installation Belleville families ask for is priced by the square foot, with the full basement usually landing around $6,000–12,000+ turnkey.

How much does drywall cost in Hastings County?

Turnkey, figure about $2.00–2.75 per sq ft for Level 3, $2.75–4.00 for Level 4 and $4.00–5.50 for a Level 5 skim; a full basement usually lands around $6,000–12,000+. The drywall installation cost in Hastings County depends on size, ceiling height and finish level — a free written quote sets the exact number for your project.

Do you travel out to Hastings — is there a separate travel fee?

We come to you right across Hastings County — Belleville, Quinte West and Trenton, Bancroft, Stirling, Marmora, Madoc, Tweed and Deseronto — and there's no separate travel fee. Even though Hastings sits far east of the GTA, well past Durham Region, you get one written price by the square foot, the same as a job in town.

Drywall ceiling or walls first?

Ceilings first. It lets the wall sheets butt up tight underneath and support the ceiling edges, for cleaner, stronger joints.

How many screws per drywall sheet?

How many screws per sheet of drywall? On a 4×8 wall, roughly 28–32, and more on ceilings — staggered and set just below the surface so the board holds flat without breaking the paper.
