Drywall Partition Installation — Prices and Specs
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a partition wall cost?
$2.00 to $3.50 per square foot of new wall, framed, hung, and finished.
Can a partition make a home office?
Yes. Home office and nursery partitions are common requests, with sound insulation as an option for privacy.
Do you build partitions in offices?
Yes. Dividing a leased space or an open office into separate rooms is the same project at commercial scale.
What has to be checked first?
Where the wall ties in, and what it meets: electrical, lighting, and HVAC. That is all walked through before framing starts.
Will the new wall look added-on?
It is framed and finished to match the surrounding space, so it reads as an intentional part of the room.
Is the site check free?
Yes. The check and the written bid cost nothing.

How the work runs
Placement is planned with you first, since a new wall interacts with existing electrical, lighting, and HVAC in ways that are easier to handle before the wall goes up than after. Then we frame, hang, tape, and finish so the new wall reads as part of the room.
