They did everything quickly, efficiently and cleaned up after themselves and were incredibly reasonable. I was very impressed. For any future drywall/stucco jobs I may have, Carlos is the only call I'll be making!
Description of Work: Carlos and his guys did a truly FANTASTIC job! I had calls out to several folks i found on Angie's list. Carlos was the most prompt with getting back to me, coming to take a look at the job and giving me an estimate. He had his guys out here days later to patch up an outer wall that my plumber had to go into as well as patch up a few small holes inside of the apartment. He was nice enough to take a TV off of a mount for me, unscrew everything, patch up an additional hole and paint everything at no extra charge. Wall looks brand new!

We had a small glitch when the painter didnt realize he wasn't supposed to repair other walls which ended up in the repainting of the entire wall. Carlos (Javier) was quick to offer a resolution for a fair price and I felt that he was quite professional and took care to make sure I was happy with the results. I would say the only suggestion I have is to ensure accurate communication between Carlos (Javier) with the guys doing the job. There are so many details that it's worth the extra effort.
Description of Work: Overall I had a great experience with WXD Drywall. They repaired drywall that was damaged and repainted.

I called Carlos from WXD the day my insulation project started. Carlos responded the same day, evaluated the work to be done, emailed an invoice as requested, and sent out a guy to work on completing the laundry room project by the next day. The drywall crew moved all appliances (washer/dryer) and completed all tasks as requested. Since I had used WXD Drywall previously, I had no problem trusting them to be in the house while I worked. Carlos came to the house several times during the day to check on the progress and supply his crew with needed items. After the work was completed by the insulation crew (Progressive Insulation and Windows), Carlos assigned more of his crew to start repairing many of the interior/exterior walls. The crew was great at limiting the mess made and spent a significant amount of time with preparation (covering furniture, floors, etc.). The crew worked for 2 days and even added another day to make sure everything was completed perfectly. The last day of work including much painting as they were able to color match all the painted walls. Thanks again Carlos and crew!
Description of Work: WXD Drywall is the best. Recently I had insulation work completed on many interior and exterior walls. WXD repaired (plugged holes, filled gaps, sanded, applied stucco, painted) much of the drywall including exterior stucco wall that had numerous 2" holes drilled in the walls (Living/Dining room, office, bedroom, kitchen, family room, laundry room, exterior west wall). They repaired approximately 200 holes including drywall (approximately 3') in the laundry room that had been cut out from plumbing work. Their work is so good that I can't even tell where the prior holes were drilled. Great Job guys!

They did a great job. The only problem was that the crew manager was not available for questions. Sometimes the crew was unsure what the plan of work was, due to a lack of supervision. They did do a very good job on the drywall. I thought there would be a more informed supervisor for the job. We did have to call them back to clean up after the work, as there was some drywall debris left but they did take care of it and made sure we were satisfied before they left. I felt the crew boss may have had a lot of jobs going as he was not accessible. We made sure to review with the crew each day the work to be done to make sure there wasn't any work done that didn't need to be done, as they may have did incorrect work if we weren't there to clarify. In the end, they did a good job.
Description of Work: They removed a popcorn ceiling and fixed a lot of drywall cracks. They also painted and put up crown molding.

I was semi concerned about hiring a drywall contractor for this, but a significant amount of the work required was drywall which on such a large surface can really show if it's poorly done. I was also concerned about my hardwood floors, however they did a fantastic job of isolating the work area from the rest of the house and well protected my floor. Ultimately I was very happy with the quality of work done, I would highly recommend them.
Description of Work: These guys did a fantastic job and might have stepped a little out of their comfort zone as I needed a media niche which would only support a 55" TV so I closed up the niche allowing me to mount a big screen on the wall, I had them also move some cabinets around.

*UPDATE* After moving into our new place, we hired WXD to patch a large hole (4' x 4') in our ceiling due to an unexpected leak. The worker finished it in 3 hours by himself! We were quoted a two day job with the contracting service that our homeowners insurance initially provided us with, but chose to work with WXD again since they are so dependable.
Description of Work: Carlos and his team did an EXCELLENT JOB. We hired them to patch our walls in our entire house after having the electrical redone. Our walls looked like swiss cheese with the amount of holes cut out, but after a week, Carlos and his team made it look like nothing happened! We were so impressed by the quality and efficiency that we hired them to: -demo our old kitchen -demo our upstairs sink -paint our downstairs level. WXD were the best out of all of the contractors we hired to redo our place.

He called me back 2 days later and said they were too busy since they were working in Beverly Hills. So they couldn't be bothered to even give me an estimate. That is the price of being a AL allstar. Smaller jobs are no longer needed, appreciated, or evening estimated on. That is what truly happened. I am going to take a screenshot of this since I don't believe AL will post it. That way I have a record of it. Professinalism = F. They are now an AL POH and since they are big they can't be wasting their time on smaller jobs. If you can't service my area = Newport Beach. Then don't post that you service this area. Also, have the professionalism to give me an estimate. This was handle in a very unprofessional manner.
Description of Work: This is not what happened! They just talked with me on the phone. Salvador, who does not run WXD, talked to me for a few minutes. And then I told him that I had a bedroom, closet, hallway, pantry, and 2 more closets.

Javier and his team were great. They were quick to respond and did a wonderful job. They said that the job would take 3 days and they were right on time. After each day, they cleaned up very well and were back the next morning at 8am as promised. I would definitely hire WXD again for any job, big or small.

Due to a plumbing issue that occurred in the bathroom, our shower wall needed to be cut open to do the repair work. I contacted WXD Drywall to seal the opening. Once Javier took a look at the entire bathroom he let me know that his company could strip the wallpaper off the walls (entire bathroom, walls and ceiling were covered) and repaint the whole room for us along with the repair of the drywall. Javier thought he could do the entire bathroom in 3 days, but due to us expanding his work load it took 6. We first just needed the walls stripped, the drywall repaired. Then we asked if he could also install a heater/fan/light combo and said yes. One thing led to another to increase the job time.
Description of Work: Stripped our bathroom of all wall paper, repaired drywall where we did some plumbing work, removed wall heater, patched drywall for heater. Installed a Nutone/Broan Heater/Fan/Light/Night Light into the ceiling near the shower. Ducted the air to outside. Completely finished the drywall, sealed and painted everything, including the wood fixtures. They also reinstalled our molding on the baseboard. Also, installed two GFI service outlets and did other electrical work including installing a light over each vanity. Javier Mejia was the contractor, but had a couple of his construction guys do the actual work. In particular, I'd like to give a big high five to Silvino who did the most detailed work...Nice Job..

They worked 3 days on the job, 8am - 4:30pm, were always punctual, never late. Nice crew. They covered the furniture and left the place clean and tidy - no mess. They matched all to existing beautifully. The cost of the job (same as the estimate given by Javier) was competitive and very reasonable for the work involved (and we got several other estimates). We could not have chosen a better company. We highly recommend them and would not hesitate to use them again. They are definitely a 5 star+ and get an A+++,and they are licensed, bonded and insured.
Description of Work: Water intrusion: 1. Bedroom ceiling - removed section of damaged ceiling, replaced and matched to existing, also painted wall to existing color. 2. Living room wall (under window) removed section of damaged wall and base molding, replaced and matched to existing and replaced base molding. Also sprayed to prevent mold. Painted entire wall to match existing. 3. Resealed window frame interior and exterior and replaced portion of the exterior window frame molding, painted and matched to existing.

Keeping it brief, they do everything I ask them to do and usually much more. As they work, I always come up with new ideas of slight changes to what I need and Javier and his guys take care of it with a smile. They are in the process of finishing the third project I have asked them to do and everything has exceeded my expectations, as usual. I feel bad that I have not written a review until now.
Description of Work: This is the third time I've used Javier and his crew. They do a great job, period. They are professional, the prices (as far as I've seen with other estimates) are unbeatable, and they don't nickel and dime you if you want to add a shelf or cover a new hole, etc, etc. I will continue to use WXD for drywall and any of the other many services they have done for me.

I did like him. He was very professional doing a small job like that. I have kept his card so that when I need more work done I am going to use him again. He was on time. He showed on the day he had to, as for the time I was not here when he turned up for work and he is a good person. I would recommend him to others. Price wise I found him fair enough. I did not shop around. He was very responsive. He picked up his phone right away.
Description of Work: I used WXD Drywall a few months ago to repair the dry wall that was messed up when the widows were leaking. So after the widows were replaced I used him. It cost me $300.

The guy who came out was fine. He was very responsive and did a very good job. He didn't clean up as well as I would have want. He was very polite and responsive. He was very good. He returned my calls. He would let us know if he was going to be late. The only negative was that he could have cleaned up a little better in the bathroom. However, it wasn't that big a negative. His price seemed expensive and I don't have anything to compare it with. The quality of the work was fine. I don't know enough about it to know if he necessarily had to build out that wall a little bit or not. He told me it was going to be a little thicker in there since he decreased the size of the well. I guess it was necessary. What was good about the punctuality is that I don't know if anyone is ever always on time, but he would call in. He said he would take 3 days to do the work, but he was out here for 4 or 5 because he didn't come out a couple of days. When he said 3 days, he meant 3 working days.
Description of Work: I used the services of WXD Drywall in September. They did some drywall repair and painting under a skylight in the bathroom. The skylight had been leaking. They had to build out the well under the skylight with pieces of wood. It was basic carpentry.

Javier has a talent to be able to give you how much the job will cost during the estimate. Then he emails you the next day with the a well written estimate. His employees are very talented and very respectful. He just took a few days longer than he said but it was not a problem for the quality and clean up that they performed. I will use him again. Javier and his team did an excellent job and I would recommend him to anyone who wants a job done that is at the top of his field.

The job was very good. I am very happy with their job and quality of work. Their price was fair. The guy was punctual and very conscientious in his work. He made sure that he covered everything in the bathroom before he started. He kept things clean and did everything I asked. I would tell others to give him a chance because he is a good person to hire. I would use him in the future too.

I love WXD Drywall. We have used them multiple times. They are very neat and tidy; they clean up well after themselves. They are very meticulous. They pay a lot of attention to detail and that is why I continue to go back to them. They quote you a price and that's what the work ends up costing after it is finished, they don't add on costs later. I can't recommend a company more highly then WXD.

We had water damage in the downstairs bathroom where the walls were damaged in the bathroom and the hallway. The wood finish is original to our house and he repaired and replace the wood finish. Because of the ratings on Angie's list we called Javier and didn't know where Winetka was but after we called he was there immediately as scheduled, completed the work as promised and we are now going to hire him again for the kitchen ceiling.
