Commercial Drywall Installation & New Construction
in Myrtle Beach, SC
Large-Scale Drywall Work for Builders, Contractors, and Property Owners
Residential repairs are one part of what we do. The other part is larger-scale work — commercial buildouts, full-house new construction installs, and room additions where the drywall scope is significant and the schedule is real.
These jobs operate differently than a single-room repair. There are general contractors coordinating multiple trades. There are inspection timelines. There are production schedules that affect everyone downstream. When a drywall crew doesn't show or falls behind, it backs up the flooring crew, the painter, and ultimately the project's certificate of occupancy.
We take that seriously. We staff our crews to the scope, we show up when we say we will, and we hit our milestones.
If you're a GC, developer, or property owner with a large-scale project — call us to discuss scope and scheduling.
Our Commercial & New Construction Services
Commercial Drywall Installation
Commercial drywall work covers a broad range of project types — tenant improvement buildouts, ground-up new construction, medical office fit-outs, retail spaces, restaurant interiors, and multi-use commercial facilities.
Each type has its own requirements. Medical spaces have specific wall assembly requirements for impact resistance. Restaurant kitchens need moisture-resistant board in food-prep areas. Open-plan offices often use steel stud framing systems that require specific fastener schedules and board handling different from wood-framed residential work.
We've worked on commercial projects throughout the Myrtle Beach market — office buildouts along Highway 17, retail tenant improvements in the Broadway at the Beach and Coastal Grand corridors, and hospitality-related projects in the beachfront resort areas of the Grand Strand.
What commercial clients can expect from us:
- Crew sizing matched to project scope and timeline
- Steel stud and wood framing systems
- Fire-rated assemblies where required by code or specification
- Acoustic drywall assemblies for sound-sensitive spaces
- Level 4 and Level 5 finish options
- Coordination with GC schedules and trade sequencing
New Construction Drywall
New construction is where volume and speed matter most. A production builder running multiple homes through a subdivision needs drywall crews that can handle the hang-and-finish schedule across multiple lots without dropping the ball on quality.
We take on new construction drywall throughout Horry County — single-family residential, townhome construction, and small multi-unit projects. We work from blueprints, bid accurately, and crew accordingly.
New construction scope typically includes:
- Full house sheetrock hang — walls and ceilings
- Board selection per spec or engineer recommendation
- Fire-rated assemblies at garage separations and party walls
- Taping, mudding, and finish to spec level
- Texture application per builder or homeowner preference
For custom home builders: we're comfortable with the higher finish standards that custom builds require. A production tract home and a custom waterfront home on Pawleys Island have different expectations at the finish stage, and we approach them differently.
One thing that separates good new construction drywall work from average work is how the ceiling work is handled. Long, flat ceilings under strong light are unforgiving. Crowns and coffered ceilings have tight tolerances. We treat ceiling finish work in new construction with the same attention we'd give a Level 5 commercial space, because that's where the homeowner is going to look first.
Room Addition Drywall
Room additions create a specific drywall challenge that new construction doesn't: the transition.
Where the addition meets the existing structure, the drywall needs to blend — in finish level, in texture pattern, and in visual consistency from one space to the next. An addition where the walls obviously don't match the rest of the house doesn't feel like a seamless expansion. It feels like a renovation.
We pay close attention to the integration points on room addition work. We match the existing texture, blend the transition at openings and doorways, and finish the new space to the same level as the rooms it connects to.
Room additions in the Myrtle Beach area often involve challenges specific to coastal construction — dealing with existing wall assemblies that have seen moisture over time, matching textures in homes that have been partially updated over several decades, and coordinating with framing contractors in a market that runs busy most of the year.
We've completed room addition drywall work on homes throughout Conway, Socastee, and the Carolina Forest area — typically in coordination with general contractors managing the full addition scope.
Working With Us on Large Projects
If you're a general contractor or developer looking to add a reliable drywall sub to your roster, here's what working with us looks like:
Estimating. We work from plans when available. For jobs without complete drawings, we walk the site and build our estimate from actual conditions. We don't guess on square footage.
Scheduling. We commit to start dates and milestone dates. If something changes on our end, we tell you before it affects your schedule, not after.
Communication. One point of contact throughout the project. You're not chasing down a crew foreman — you have a direct line to the person managing the job.
Quality control. We inspect our own work before we call it done. Finish issues get caught and corrected before the painter walks in, not after.
Cleanup. Commercial and new construction drywall generates significant debris — cutoffs, compound bags, packaging. We leave job sites clean because we know the GC's schedule doesn't have room for a cleanup delay.
Commercial Drywall Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work directly with homeowners on room additions, or only with GCs?
Both. We work directly with homeowners who are managing their own room addition projects, and we work as a subcontractor under general contractors. Either way, the quality and process are the same.
What fire-rated assemblies do you install for commercial projects?
We install Type X 5/8" drywall assemblies for standard one-hour and two-hour fire ratings, including UL-listed assemblies for commercial applications. If a specific listed assembly is required by the architect or AHJ (authority having jurisdiction), we work from that specification.
Can you handle acoustic drywall assemblies for recording studios or conference rooms?
Yes. Sound-rated wall assemblies typically involve resilient channel or sound isolation clips, multiple layers of board, and specific joint compound treatments to maintain the rating. We've installed these in both commercial and residential applications.
How do you handle the transition between a room addition and the existing house?
We assess the existing texture and finish level before any board goes up in the new space. On additions, we typically do a site visit specifically to examine the transition points and existing wall conditions. Getting the match right requires knowing what you're matching before you start — not after.
What's the difference between how you bid residential repairs versus commercial work?
Residential repairs are typically priced as fixed-cost quotes based on the specific scope. Commercial and new construction work is generally priced per square foot for the hang, with separate pricing for finish level, specialty board, and project-specific conditions. We'll walk you through the estimate format that makes the most sense for your project type.
Are you set up to handle multiple projects simultaneously?
Yes. We can crew multiple active jobs when the schedule calls for it. If you're a GC with multiple homes in a production pipeline or concurrent commercial projects, talk to us about capacity and scheduling. We'll be straightforward about what we can commit to.
