  Tapepro does sub-par work and will take your money without finishing the job. Stay away unless you pay after the job is done and check his work after each step. Luis, the owner of Tapepro, has ZERO integrity and is only after the cash to buy a new lift kit for his truck and fatten his wallet.

  Paid Luis, the owner of TapePro up-front to do work. Remodeling a house that I had just bought - removing popcorn ceiling, taking out some walls, etc - and hired Luis to patch everything back up. It all started out well and he was doing a nice job for a good price. As he continued to do work I started seeing red flags but figured I was just being overly-nit picky. Things like carelessness when he was spraying the texture - he got it everywhere! The walls, the floor, etc. I figured he would clean it up when he was all done, so I let it go. He never ended up cleaning it up. Also, the texture didn't quite match the existing texture, but I just figured that was normal for a renovation - that it'd be hard to match. Later I found out that assumption was completely wrong, it is possible to match and Luis was just being lazy.

  Toward the end of the job Luis told me that he was going on vacation for a couple of weeks but that he would send a guy to finish the work. He asked if I could pre-pay for the remainder of the work, which I agreed to because my brother had vouched for him. He sends a third party worker over (probably a favor from his friend) to come and finish the work, which included cutting backer-board for two showers and patching several large holes of drywall. The worker did the fastest most crappy job I think he could muster - the drywall fabric was showing through the plaster and the blue board in the shower wasn't plum (he didn't even put cement board up! Big no-no); it was obvious that he just wanted to throw the stuff up and get out of there. His guy also didn't finish the full scope of work we had agreed to.

  I tried to contact Luis but he didn't answer for several days. He may have truly not been reachable I don't know. In any case when he finally did return my texts/calls he apologized and said he would come back and finish the work. I contacted him regularly asking when he would come and continually was pushed off. Eventually he stopped responding to me altogether.

  That leaves us to now- I had to pay another guy to come finish the work I had paid Luis to do. There are a lot of drywall guys out there that do quality work for a reasonable price...do yourself a favor and find one of them, stay away from Tapepro
