Getting the best price on sheetrock can make or break your renovation budget. Whether you are hanging walls for a garage conversion in Port Orange or patching up a rental property near the Daytona Boardwalk, material costs stack up fast.

​Where to Shop in Volusia County​1. The Big Box Stores (Home Depot & Lowe’s)For standard 1/2-inch or 5/8-inch Type X fire-rated sheets, the local Home Depot (off Williamson Blvd) and Lowe’s (off International Speedway Blvd) are the most convenient choices. On average, standard 4×8 drywall panels run between $14 to $20 per sheet depending on thickness.

​Pro-Tip: If you are buying a full room or a whole house, never pay retail. Both stores offer bulk delivery savings and custom contractor pricing if you buy 34 sheets or more at their Pro Desks.

2. Local Commercial Supply YardsIf you are tackling a massive project, look past the big-box stores and check out local dedicated drywall and gypsum distributors. Commercial supply yards often have better bulk availability on specialized materials like purple mold-resistant board or soundproofing sheets, and their delivery trucks are better equipped to drop heavy stacks right onto a job site.

Don’t Guess Your Material Counts​Before you head out to pick up material or call in an order for delivery, you need a flawless count. Over-ordering leaves you with wasted boards, and under-ordering forces you to waste gas making extra trips.
