Sal in Ancaster

I had been looking for someone to finish the drywall in my basement for several months. After several phone calls and visits, I never got any quotes, most often not even the courtesy of a call saying they were too busy. Matt was the fourth person I contacted and he got in touch with me within a week. He came over and inspected my basement, taking measurements and digital photos for his quote. I had finished the framing myself and he was fine with it, recommending a few adjustments here and there. Due to the design of the house, some quite awkward bulkheads were required; again he had no issue dealing with this complication. Within another week he had supplied me with a quote, which included a clear list of tasks to be completed as part of the job. In addition to the quote he supplied me with pictures of other jobs that he has completed, both large and small. I agreed to go ahead with the job, and he provide a clear and concise contract agreement for the work to be performed. The final tally worked out to be the same as his original quote to the penny. Matt made effective use of email and text messages. As both my wife and I work full time, he was happy to synchronize dates and times where he and/or his crew could show up and work while we arranged for someone to be at our house. Matt's crew were very courteous and professional. They were always done as soon as if not sooner than he had indicated. Matt took his time to ensure that there was enough drying time between sanding to ensure the quality of the end result. There was no damage done to any other parts of the house. I believe he mentioned that they have some kind of equipment that reduces the amount of sanding dust; although I did not see them do the sanding, I noticed absolutely no dust settling throughout the house. I agreed to have him put a California knockdown texture on the roof. The end result is beautiful; highly recommended. I did find a flaw in that one of the air vent holes was cut too long. Matt promptly repaired the hole and finished it cleanly. There were no other defects in the work, minor or otherwise. I am very happy with the job, especially in comparison to other contractors who could not even spare me the time of day. I highly recommend him to do any drywalling job. Cheers!
