Schedule of values (SOV)

By James Grokman, CEO, TapeAndFloat · Updated 2026-10-28

A schedule of values breaks your contract amount into line items, such as hanging, tape and float, and texture by area or floor. Each pay application bills a percentage of each line.

Why it matters on a drywall job

• A clear SOV makes your percent-complete easier for the GC to approve.
• Front-loading or vague lines can lead to pushback on every pay app.
