Interior Wall Framing Cost

Construction Item Description

Construction estimating unit cost for interior wall framing built with 2x4 wood studs. This is a "fixed size" unit cost for 24" stud spacing and 12 foot ceiling height.

Unit Size

One lineal foot of wall framing.

NOTE-- This unit cost covers simple interior wall framing with no complications. There are additional unit costs for each corner and interior door opening.

Labor Costs

We figure that a carpenter can frame about 7 lineal feet of 12 foot interior wall per hour.

Material Costs

The cost includes .7 studs (2x4 by 12 foot) per foot of wall, plus double top and bottom plates and fasteners. There is also an 8% waste factor on the framing materials.

Suggested Quantity

Total interior wall length from the Basic Dimensions screen.

Source of Construction Pricing

Based on crew timing and material takeoffs from Turtle Creek Construction. The labor cost covers remodeling and small additions.

NOTE-- For experienced framing crews doing new construction, you can probably reduce the labor hours by 25% to 50%.
