Virginia Drywall Contractors

Hiring a Drywall Contractor in Virginia

Buildermuse currently lists 10 drywall contractors in Virginia, averaging 5.0 stars across 711 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 Virginia Beach, Charlottesville, and Chesapeake.

Virginia has a three-tier licensing system based on project value and number of employees. Class A is the highest (over $120,000 or 7+ employees). All trades fall under the contractor classification system. Confirm credentials with the Virginia Board for Contractors at (804) 367-8511 before work begins. Licenses renew on a two-year cycle (license issue date). Expect a $100–$250 state application fee.

Labor is the biggest line item on most bids, and the Virginia market sets the floor: construction workers here average $36.25 an hour — about $75,400 a year — across 220,520 workers statewide, per Bureau of Labor Statistics data. Use that figure as a sanity check when comparing quotes — a bid priced far below market labor rates usually means subcontracted or uninsured crews.
