Metal Framing Question


What is the going rate for Texas on building metal stud walls. I know that the price of the metal is .65 on 20 gauge and .40 on 25 gauge. What is a reasonable price on install?

Good question - how much do you pay your help, how much do you make, what truck do you drive & where is the job located? Phone number for the GC - in case we have any questions on the job scope

Well it all depends on if your going to use duct tape to fasten the studs or lick and stick them together. Makes a huge difference in labor costs. Let us know and then i will get you an exact price on labor.
