Another shout out for Big Al's Texturing

Well worth paying for the service. Gary provided a fair quote for the part of our job and we let them know we would be hiring them again to complete our reno. Terry provided excellent texturing and was on time and showed up when he said he would - thank you! This company knows drywall and texturing and I would highly recommend them for your drywall taping, mudding and sanding.

mudding/taping/sanding

We hired Big Al's Texturing to fix previous contractor error in texturing. Spencer came in and discussed what he saw, how it could be fixed and offered a fair and reasonable quote for the job.

Big Al's muddying/taping employee knew what he was doing - it was apparent from his review of the jobsite. He brought his own supplied and tools and provided top quality work in a personable and professional manner.

The sanding employees also provided professional and top quality service. They brought their own tools and light to ensure all seams were sanded and ensured I was satisfied and encouraged me to review their work prior to them leaving the job.

Big Al's Texturing team we were sent were top notch and I have been verbally referring them to people already who are currently renovating. I highly recommend Big Al's Texturing for your drywall needs. We wished he had hired them first and saved ourselves all the grief and frustration and money! Thank you Big Al's Texturing team.

Knockdown ceiling

I contacted Big Al's texturing after our reno contractor attempted a "do it yourself" job on our entire ceiling. Big Al himself took a personal interest in our project as we had been so badly taken advantage of. He and his team came in, skim coated the entire ceiling in order to cover up the previous mess and then did a proper knock down ceiling. They were literally life savers. They were fast, took pride in the work and did an amazing job. The ceiling looks beautiful. Can't thank Al and his crew enough for coming in and truly making the best of a bad situation.

whole house reno

They were a sub trade for my home reno. They came when they were supposed to, did a wicked job on my knockdown celining and were out of there without a trace. I noticed one tiny blemish a while later and they booked a time that was good for me and fixed er pronto.

patch in ceiling

They came and did a quote, but ended up saving us money by scaling back the project and doing only the work that was required to fix the job right then. Also patched up some 'do it yourself' mistakes in another room. Amazing service and technical job.

Basement ceiling

Big Al's was contracted through my drywall contractor for the ceiling portion of our basement development. The initial time they came out, they worked very quickly and I was wrong to be impressed by that. The next day we noticed several areas where they had not sprayed the undercoat properly and it was streaky and missing patches. We had them come back and they repaired it by painting over the knockdown on half of the basement. Several weeks later we noticed more issues on the other half of the basement. They had to come back again and the only way to fix it was to paint over the knockdown on that half. All in all, 3 trips to do a 1000 sq ft basement and a great deal of inconvenience. Total lack of quality control I would never recommend this company!

ceiling refinishing

This is not the first time we have used Big Al's. We like them and the work they do. The guy that came was very personable, worked hard, and was able to work around our schedule. On this project, they could have done a better job to start, but were willing to come back and do an excellent job (that the painter was happy with) so in the end it was a success. We will use them again.

Some drywall mudding/taping on kitchen/bedroom reno

Big Al was a replacement drywaller that our contractor got for us (our original guy broke his arm when he was about to begin). He did a very good job, but getting him to show up on promised days at indicated hours was hit and miss. Mostly miss. If you're ok with that, he does a good job.
