What to send while a drywall repair waits on approval

Send this when the bid is stuck on another person, a board, or a permit. Ask what they still need from you, then wait.

Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.

Who is holding it

The person paying the painter will ask if the ceiling flash will show. Answer that.

What you can hand them

The price is $1,840 and includes hang, tape, and a texture match on the water-stained ceiling and the two patched walls. Drywall bids seem small, so they wait behind larger projects, or behind a debate about whether to skim the whole ceiling. Do not include paint in a drywall price unless you are actually painting it.

If you send it from QuoteLasso

The default schedule is three emails, at 2, 5, and 10 days. Day 10 is the last one. You can move the dates. Add the estimate by typing it in, forwarding the message, or importing a spreadsheet.

What does the approver need on the drywall repair?

Hi Ivan,

If someone else still has to approve the drywall repair, I can resend the $1,840 estimate in whatever form they need.

Tell me what they ask for. I will not keep emailing while you wait on them.

Thanks,
