Transforming Cold Concrete into Cozy Comfort - Drywalling Connecticut Basements the Right Way

SERVING HARTFORD COUNTY, LITCHFIELD COUNTY, FAirfield County AND MORE

Your basement has potential. Whether you're creating a playroom, home office, guest suite, or a relaxing lounge, finishing your basement with high-quality drywall is one of the smartest upgrades you can make. At Landry Drywall, we specialize in transforming unfinished basements into beautiful, livable spaces throughout Connecticut. From metal framing to sheetrock to a Level 5 smooth finish, we make sure your walls are paint-ready and built to last.

Things to Consider When Finishing Your Basement with Drywall Walls

Before diving into a basement renovation, here are a few key points every homeowner should think about:

We’re Not General Contractors – Landry Drywall focuses solely on framing and drywall. We don’t handle electrical, plumbing, or full basement buildouts.

Proper Framing is Essential – We offer both wood and metal framing, ideal for basements where moisture and stability are a concern.

Insulation and Moisture Protection – While we don’t install insulation or vapor barriers, we coordinate closely with your GC or contractor to ensure the prep is right.

Wall Finish Options – Our drywall services include everything from installation to tape, mud, and sanding, all the way to a smooth Level 5 finish ready for paint.

Timeline Planning – We work efficiently, but keep in mind that basement environments can require extra drying time due to humidity.

Cost of Drywalling a Basement in Connecticut

Every basement is unique, but here’s a general idea of what to expect:

Framing & Drywall: Most basement drywall projects in Connecticut range from $7 to $10 per square foot, depending on complexity and finish level.

Level 5 Finish: For homeowners who want that ultra-smooth, paint-ready look, a Level 5 upgrade adds a premium, but is well worth it for lighting-heavy spaces.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Level Basement Drywall FAQ's

  • Do you offer full basement finishing?

    No, we specialize in framing and drywall. We work with homeowners and general contractors to complete walls and ceilings, but we don’t handle electrical, flooring, or plumbing.

  • Can you install metal studs in basements?

    Absolutely. Metal framing is a great choice for basements because it's resistant to moisture and won't warp over time.

  • What is a Level 5 finish, and do I need it?

    A Level 5 finish is the smoothest drywall finish available. It’s ideal for areas with strong lighting or glossy paint, where imperfections might otherwise show.

  • How long does it take to drywall a basement?

    It depends on size and complexity, but most basement drywall jobs take 1 to 2 weeks including framing and finish.
