Benny landed in my home and finished off two floors of removal in 3 days and the end result is wonderful. Professional, diligent and fast. Quality work, looks great, fully satisfied. Highly recommend.

Benny did an excellent job to remove the popcorn ceiling of my 30+ years old condo. My renovation contractor was supposed to do the removal job but he kept saying it might not be possible as the previous owner had painted the popcorn ceiling more than once. I found Bennys name on reddit and HomeStar had 10/10 ratings from his customers. Though I normally dont trust customer reviews but I was too desperate to get the job done so I decided to give it a try. Benny gave me a reasonably good quotation and I was v happy with the end result. I ended up asking Benny to do the whole condo painting.

Benny took down the drop ceiling in our basement and replaced it with drywall. He also skim coated the textured walls and ceiling of our house. Benny is a master plasterer, is very detail oriented, and takes great pride in his work. His work exceeded our expectations - the walls, ceilings, and entrance of our 1931 house look brand new, and it's hard to believe they were ever textured. Even the parts that were in terrible shape. The job at our place was a bit more than he expected, yet he stood behind his original quote and was always very conscious of our budget. I've hired some great contractors in the past, but I have to say Benny is the best of the best! Hire him and you won't be disappointed!

Most people are apprehensive about hiring a contractor because the reviews sometimes dont tell the full story, and nobody wants any surprises. Benny is a highly skilled master plasterer who does all the plastering himself. One part of our ceiling in the foyer had a slight bow due to a structural problem, which became more noticeable after the stucco was removed. Benny could simply have stopped at the level 5 finish, but he's very picky and wants everything to be perfect. He went over that area several times and got it to a point where the bow just blended in with the rest of the ceiling. There isn't much more I can add to what others have already said about Benny, but to say that when you hire him, hell tell you upfront what to expect and hell deliver. His price is very reasonable and definitely better than the larger contractors. If its a tossup, and you're looking for perfectly finished ceilings, pick Benny. You will pat yourself on the back later! We had stucco removed from all levels in a 4-bedroom house. Benny takes a lot of pride in his work and he has transformed our home. He is the contractor I would recommend to family and close friends. He's also a nice guy!

Benny did an excellent job in taping, patching and priming our walls. Jobs was very neat and he works clean. No mess left behind. Took about a week of work to complete the job. We had actually planned to hire Benny to put up the drywall as well but our schedules didnt meet so we hire someone else. He became available after they were up so we hired him for taping. I wish we wouldve had him put up the drywall as well. We would definitely work with Benny again.

We had Benny in to remove popcorn ceilings in 3 large rooms and a hallway on our main floor just before we moved in. Benny is not only a fantastic contractor but an extremely nice guy as well. He kept us up to date on his progress and went above and beyond to complete the project before the movers arrived with our stuff. The end product looks incredible. He applied 3 skimcoats and it is like the popcorn never existed. I highly recommend you give him a call. Thanks Benny!

Excellent quality work at a fair price - super nice and honest guy to work with! 12/10 recommend, would do business with him again without hesitation. Our ceiling in kitchen was slanted by at least 2 inches and had a lot of complicated areas, Benny and his team replaced the entire ceiling and now it looks perfectly brand new! We also had a bunch of areas throughout the house that needed to be plastered and ready for paint, Benny and his team were meticulous with the details and very efficient.

Benny is a master of his craft and has truly transformed the look of my entire home. Floors/walls were well protected to minimize dust before he expertly removed all the outdated popcorn. He then meticulously skimmed, sanded, primed & painted resulting in an impeccably smooth and beautiful flat finish. His workmanship is quite impressive and his years of experience in the trade clearly shows. Benny is an absolute gem! A true professional - knowledgeable, skilled, responsive, reliable and courteous. Highly recommend! Thanks again for going above and beyond to ensure the job was completed perfectly.

Benny's work is impeccable! He did mudding and drywall on ceiling areas and removed the popcorn from the main floor and common areas on the first floor. We loved so much his attention to detail, professionalism, and punctuality so we are now needing his services to do our upper floor rooms. It was a huge undertaking since I am currently preggo and having Renos around this time wouldn't be ideal but he made it very easy to manage and deal with. Every single day that he worked in our place he covered up common spaces like the kitchen so the dust was minimal and before his day finished he left everything well organized and clean. Thanks to him our home looks so modern and we couldn't be more happy about it. We really appreciate your hard work, Benny, you know your stuff, and 100% we highly recommend clients hire him for this work. You wont be disappointed!

So pleased that I came across Benny in Home Stars to remove the popcorn ceiling in multiple bedrooms and also do some wall painting in addition to the ceiling priming and painting. Benny is a craftsman and clearly enjoys his job. The ceilings are impeccable. Really I don't think it is possible to get a better job and his pricing was much better than I was quoted elsewhere. Benny is also a wonderful guy as an added bonus. I can't recommend him highly enough.
