Minnesota Drywall Contractors

Hiring a Drywall Contractor in Minnesota

Buildermuse currently lists 10 drywall contractors in Minnesota, averaging 5.0 stars across 484 verified Google reviews. That is an unusually strong field — when nearly every firm clears 4.8 stars, response time and availability become the real differentiators, so call two or three rather than only the top result. Most of the crews above operate out of Crystal, Edina, and Elk River.

Minnesota requires licensing for residential building, remodeling, and roofing contractors. Commercial work does not require a state-level license but may require local licensing. Confirm credentials with the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry at (651) 284-5069 before work begins. Licenses renew on an annual cycle (December 31). Expect a $200 state application fee. At a minimum, ask for proof of $300,000 in general liability coverage and active workers' comp.

Labor is the biggest line item on most bids, and the Minnesota market sets the floor: construction workers here average $41.60 an hour — about $86,528 a year — across 148,463 workers statewide, per Bureau of Labor Statistics data. That puts Minnesota among the pricier construction labor markets in the country, so expect quotes to reflect it.
