As part of my quest to sell my current house to move somewhere I can build a real shop I need to drywall my garage and two unfinished bedrooms.
Anyhow, when the heck did drywall prices go sky high? The least expensive 4x8 sheet of 1/2" at Menards was around $9. A year ago, the same sheet was around $6.
I had expected in Oct/Nov 2005 that prices would be high due to the hurricanes and was suprised they were still low. These days I would expect drywall to be less money since building is slowing so much. OSB and lumber prices are both down for this reason.
