To estimate the quantity of drywall needed for a room, calculate the total square footage of the walls and ceiling. Measure each wall's length and height, excluding doors and windows. Add up these areas and subtract openings. Standard drywall sheets are 4x8 feet. Divide the total square footage by 32 to determine the number of sheets needed, considering waste and room layout.
