  Drywall entire mother’s-in-law apartment

  I have extensive experience in hiring contractors, almost always, despite enormous research, being vastly disappointed. War Drywall has been the exception. From the beginning, their communications have been unbelievable. I was so impressed with the bidding process that I absolutely expected them to be the most expensive quote, and off the charts. I was so happy when I received a competitive, fair bid. Their were not the least expensive, but my communications left me feeling their were a great fit. My expectations were blown away. From the beginning, to the end, the communications were absolutely unbelievable. They kept on schedule and they leapt over disastrous supplier challenges to keep on schedule. Raul was the first man I met, and here until the end. What a great asset he is to Walt. From the beginning, he left me so comfortable with the work that they would do, and he and the rest of Walt’s crew absolutely blew away my expectations. An exceptional company!!!

  Hang drywall, finish, paint

  $9,200

  Hired to hang, finish, and paint drywall for a remodel.

  Inattention to detail. They departed when drywall patches and transitions were clearly visible. Multiple return trips to work those issues. A hole in one wall was not filled. An electrical box was covered by drywall. The primer color is visible through the finish color. Final result? The work is not up to the same standard as the work completed in other areas of the house, by other drywall pros. Amateur results. Have plenty of photos of the poor results.

  A key element of the project was noise isolation. WAR folks failed to follow specifications for gaps between materials and failed to use sound-deadening materials consistent with mfg specs.

  While Walter communicated consistently, the only offer to resolve the issues was to pay more to resolve the poor-quality results. I invited Walter to inspect the work for himself, but he declined. Attention to detail and providing a quality result were not their focus while they were VERY demanding for immediate payment.

  Quite sad. Have never had an experience with a contractor that came to an unsatisfactory conclusion. Completed several remodels. We have always been able to arrive at a consensus when there were issues. Not this time. Did not get the expected value. Unfortunate. Recommend avoiding WAR. Wish I had.
