Silva Taping & Drywall

We hired Silva taping and drywall to skim coat our textured walls and ceilings in our entire (!) basement. We also had to have a few walls framed out to separate rooms and then have those drywalled. The final result was 10/10. I'm shocked at how smooth the walls are now. They look amazing.

There are a few hiccups along the way, the job took a bit longer than expected but not a big deal as we weren't in a crazy hurry. Luckily my husband worked from home because they did come and go sometimes, would be there for the morning and then leave for the day or there for the afternoon only etc... so it might have taken a bit more effort to coordinate being home at the same time as them if that's your situation. I think my only negative was I wasn't 100% happy with the framing (and if I were to do it again I would probably just hire a framer.) BUT it ended up being fine and Romildo worked with me on it when I talked to him about things! There was a bit of a mess leftover at the end of the job. Gobs of drywall compound everywhere that we had to scrape off the concrete floor. I think because it was a basement space with an unfinished floor, it was treated a bit differently than if it had been in a finished area of the home, which is fine. Just took some time to clean the workspace up after. Garbage left that we took to the dump etc. I've never done a renovation, so I'm not sure what the norm is, as to what you're left with!

The price for the entire job was very good also, very competitive. They definitely know what they're doing when it comes to drywall, mudding, taping, skim coating!! EXCELLENT finished result. See my pics.

A huge plus also, was that there was very minimal dust even though basically entire basement was skim coated and sanded! Which was crazy and I was very pleased with that as well. I was expecting a big mess! They have all the professional equipment to do the job properly!

If you have ugly texture on your walls they will fix it! I still can't believe how much better everything looks with smooth walls. It's amazing. Highly recommend getting it done if that's your situation.

Also Romildo's "tile guy" that he suggested we use for our tub surround did an amazing job on the tiling as well! I was a bit nervous because you don't know! But it turned out really great also.

Romildo was always very responsive and any issues I had were addressed right away. He and his son were very nice and did a great job. Would hire them again for anything drywall related! Very happy with our basement. It looks 100x better thanks to their hard work!

Romildo and his son Sam were very professional. They completed the job in a timely fashion. Work was exemplary.

These guys are absolutely fantastic to work with. Very detailed and great work that they take great pride in. Would highly recommend to anyone. Clear communication throughout the process! Thanks for helping get our new basement closer to completion!

Ramildo and his son Sam did a fantastic job. Enjoyed working with a family business. They delivered quality and timely completion of our addition project. We had some complex angles and a few spot to feather into the older plaster and both look fantastic. Nice to work with someone who loves what he does and takes pride in the quality he delivers. Thanks again Ramildo and we will be calling you back.

Romildo and his team are a great family-run business that was extremely attentive to our needs. They worked efficiently and always cleaned up the mess after they finished the jobs. The work they did was time-consuming and they did a good job of accomidating their time to fit with our schedule. Pricing was excellent for this type of service! We are very pleased with the outcome and would definitely reccommend him and the team for future jobs!
Thank you so much Romildo for all the hard work!
We very much appreciate it!

I called Silva Taping & Drywall, and Met Romildo, who happened to be in the neighbourhood. He arrived within 5 minutes and was friendly and personable. He listened to what work I wanted completed (drywall basement ceiling and remove popcorn ceiling on main floor, skim and paint). Romildo provided a verbal quote, was back in a day or two with the contract and started the job shortly after.

Romildo and crew started by 8 am the days they were on site, and did a great job of finishing the basement ceiling and first floor smooth ceilings. Both basement and first floor look amazing. I am happy with the outcome and will be doing more projects through Romildo.

I can recommend Romildo and his team to anyone for basement and popcorn ceiling removal. Romildo, Sam, Flavio, thank you for a job well done and look forward to the next project.

Romildo and his team installed new drywall and laminate flooring after my basement flooded. He was very professional and the job turned out flawless. I trusted Romildo and his team to work in my basement even while I was away at work a few days. I highly recommend giving Romildo a call for any home renovation needs. The electrical, drywall and flooring turned out better than I expected and for a great price too.

Silva taping has done a excellent job in my bathroom renovation and I highly recommend. Romildo is a very professional worker.
We are very happy with the final job.

Isaac did a great job. Very happy with the work. Isaac was professional, and provided fast results at a good price. In addition, he was friendly, detail-oriented. We plan to hire Silva Taping and Drywall for future projects.

We moved into our new home to realize some water leakage from the ceiling in the bathroom. Romeo came to rescue quickly and efficiently. This was a big job. He was on time as he promised. I requested his information for future jobs.
