What customers said about drywall installation
Fair price (multiple quotes from different companies around the same price), quick scheduling, and a good end product. Larry was able to hang our master bathroom in a couple hours and Todd did a great job finishing. Total process took 5 days from hanging to finished walls. Only thing that could be improved was…
Great work by the entire New Leaf team. Design and repair of our laundry room was done on time with expert craftsmanship.
I needed to have new drywall installed on a 12 X 12 ceiling. Miguel was prompt to answer my inquiry for an estimate. Laid out the best solution at very reasonable cost. Miguel and his team were efficient, very courteous and clean. I will call E&M again for any drywall repair plus highly recommend to all my friends.
I've been a General contractor for 30 years and I have done a lot of drywall jobs myself and have hired many drywall companies. William and his crew did exceptional work. Very clean, fast and their work was perfect. I will definitely be using them for now on. Thank you William!
The drywallers showed up when they said they would be there and did a wonderful job (they even straightened out some framing that wasn’t right), and the price was very good ($400 cheaper than the other bid I received). I am very happy to recommend them to others.
Cincinnati Drywall originally did my home 23 years ago when we had it built. We put on addition and had them install drywall again. Everyone at that company I dealt and spoke with was a pleasure that is very rare. Great job to a company that has been around many years and continues a family’s tradition of excellence.
