How Many Hangers To Finishers


Considering 9' ceilings using 54' boards how many of each crew is good to not have one getting to far ahead or behind the other. I was thinking 1 hanging crew of 3 guys for 1 finishing crew of 2 guys with automatic tools. Do you think the 2 finishers could also handle the texturing (rtx1500) or would it be better to just have 2 finishing crews and have them both texture their own houses. These homes are roughly 8,200 sq ft. homes. Just trying to figure out my labor for this job.

Re: How Many Hangers To Finishers


Depends completely on how fast the crews are and how long they have been doing it. We have 1 crew of 6 mexicans that can blow out 20sqft in 12 hrs, and it takes our most experienced/fastest taping crew (with 3 guys) 5 days to finish it (including texture/sanding) right now we only have this one hanging crew hanging for 6 tapers...
