Bob and his son arrived on time, were extremely neat and professional. They were not the least or the most expensive of the quotes I received. Will be calling again for other areas of my home.

We needed a dry wall repairman to come very quickly to make repairs because we were putting our house up for sale in the next few days. He helped us out, immediately fitting us into his busy schedule, and came promptly the next morning just as he said he would. He started working immediately and did a fantastic job of repairing the 2 spots on our garage ceiling. When the paint dried you could not even tell where he had done his repairs. He was prompt, courteous, professional and did a great job, wasting not a minute. I would most definitely hire him again and would highly recommend him to anyone without any reservations.
Description of Work: Bob repaired two holes in the ceiling of my garage from a former roof leak. He cut out the bad sections and put in new drywall, then mudded and painted them.

He was timely on his appointments to meet me at the job. They were certainly very informative as to how the process would go. The reason we didn't use them was their schedule. They got too far in order for us to fit into our timeline. They got the quote back to me within a day and it was very thorough as far as what was allocated for the interior work that needed to be done and what was allocated for the exterior work and a number of quotes that would be needed and that type of thing. I will absolutely get a quote from them again in the future and if the timing works out. I know their pricing to be competitive. I know they're in the running for the job. It was just the timing that was preventing their schedule and our schedule from matching up on the process.

They did a nice job with the ceiling although I did not get what I wanted. There was poor communication and instead of a smooth ceiling, I got knock down, which I had never heard of and did not want, but it was too late they had already sprayed almost my entire house. My original review of them was based on this service and overall I thought they did a nice job. As for the sheet rock, it was the worst job I've ever seen. The walls are uneven and my husband and I had to go back and resand before we could paint. Even after they came back and repaired some spots it looked awful. You would never guess we had new sheetrock put up. Additionally, they didn't number the trim and we were unable to put most of it back up because it no longer fit or we couldn't figure out where it went. They were very nice and professional, but that's where it ended.

Although I didn't choose to hire Bob on this project, my experience with obtaining the quote and his follow-up were very professional and I would absolutely use his services in the future.
Description of Work: I called Bob for an estimate on painting an entire 2600 sq ft home on the interior, just walls, not baseboards or doors and he was very prompt in returning my call, very accomodating on coming out within a couple of days to look at the project and gave me a quote within hours. I ended up using a painter that worked for my contractor due to scheduling ease and their quote was about $500 less for the same scope of work. I would absolutely call Bob again for future jobs on both painting and drywall work since he handles his business very professionally and I have a good feeling the quality of his work is above average. Thanks Bob..... sorry I didn't get back to you when you called but I had so much going on that week that time just got away from me. Looking forward to getting with you on another project I have!

I called Bob Hester around 7pm expecting to leave a voice mail, but he actually took my call. He was able to accommodate me on a Saturday and sent his son to give me an estimate to paint the inside of my vacant unit. His son, Michael, arrived on time - was very professional and provided a quote within a couple of days as promised. I did not hire Bob Hester's Painting and Drywall because the quote was out of my budget. I was quoted $3300.00 for interior paint. I did have other quotes from a couple other vendors from Angie's List and they were $900 - $1200; which is what I expected and in my budget. I hired another company from Angie's List.
Description of Work: Need a quote for interior paint for one of my vacant rental units - 2 bed / 1 ba duplex - approx 1100-1200 sq ft. Interior paint - walls, baseboards, trim around windows & door, ceiling in master room, minor repair of cracks prior to paint, and inside closets & pantry.

He did a marvelous job and the ceiling looks brand new. He's very pleasant to work with. He was accommodating and was able to schedule it at my convenience. He taped of all the walls and covered all the furniture and the floor so it wouldn't have dust going throughout the house. I had absolutely no mess after they completed the job. He was absolutely a professional drywall person and it couldn't have been any better.

Just doesn't get any better.
Description of Work: I have hired Mr Hester on 2 other projects and now I don't even bother to get other estimates, because I know he is reasonable and does excellent work. I have recommended him to two of my neighbors and they have also been very satisfied with his work. The painting job required repairing multiple areas of rotten/damaged wood and replaced with new cedar prior to painting- repairs blended in beautifully - house looks like new. Pressure washed and painted exterior - did a lovely job - also took care of some minor problems in a sensible manner without charge. Bob Hester explained everything that would be done in detail and performed some of the work himself and supervised the rest on a regular basis. Very much a perfectionist with 40 years of experience with this line of work and with people - very organized. Anticipates and solves any problems. Won't leave until he knows his customer is satisfied. I highly recommend Mr. Hester and his conscientious and courteous crew.

It was quick getting the contractor out to do an estimate, but there was a lag in starting the job. It was a minor leak so no additional damage was done prior to his arrival. Job was finished satisfactorily in one day. Paint matching of interior paint was excellent.

After getting quotes from a few highly rated drywall contractors off of Angie's List I settled on Bob Hester. His price is fair and competetive with other highly rated members. However what set Bob apart was his obvious experience and professionalism. He has been in the business for over 40 years and it reflected in the way he approached the job and the quality of his work. The job took two days. The first day was replacing and retexturing the damaged drywall. The second day was painting the ceiling to match. For both the initial estimate, and on both days of work, Bob arrived at the scheudled time. He takes the time to make sure you understand the work he is going to do and why it is necessary. He sets up carefully to mask and protect areas he isn't working. For the skylight work he came prepared to replace any damaged insulation, which was somthing none of the other contractors offered/mentioned to do. He prepped, replaced both kitchen and skylight drywall with no visible seams. He even took extra steps to blend the kitchen texture beyond the initial scope of work at no extra charge because he thought it would yeild a better result. When he left after the first day he made sure to immediately go and get color matched paint to be ready for the second day. Again on the second day he promptly arrived and setup quickly. The drywall was painted and the finished result was fantastic and beyond what I had hoped. I had only hoped to reduce the unsightly lines and staining in the ceiling. After Bob was done you couldn't tell there was ever a problem. He cleaned and swept the area completely to avoid leaving a mess for the homeowner. He even took the time to fix a few minor areas I had spotted problems with in other rooms at no extra charge that were not even part of the scope of work requested. You can get other estimates from other contractors on Angie's List if you wish, but for the quality of work you're going to get and at a price that is the same or more competitive than other highly rated contractors you won't need to look further. You can feel confident you're going to get the results you want with Bob.
Description of Work: I required removal of drywall in master bath skylight that had become damaged from water leakage around the defective skylight. The drywall was further damaged during the skylight repair process. I needed the impacted drywall to be removed, retextured and repainted to match. A second problem area was in the kitchen where there was ceiling drywall issues due to poor seaming and an even worse repair job that made a very visible line that was cracked and peeling making it look like water damage. I required the patchwork to be redone and blended with the rest of the existing ceiling without replacing the entire kitchen ceiling drywall. The job included removal of impacted drywall. Retexturing and repainting the impacted areas to blend/match without doing full teardown and replacement of the entire ceiling and skylight areas.

I had a 4'x6' piece of drywall fall from my garage ceiling. I called Bob and the next day he came out to give me an estimate. He was very professional and told me he would get me on the books for next week. We scheduled the repair for a day I was at home. Bob and his son came out and fixed the hole in my ceiling. While working we engaged in some friendly conversations. Bob and his son did a great job. I would recommend him to anyone. He will be the only one I call if I need drywall repaired again.

I called Bob Hester Sr in tears due to unprofessional and unsatisfactory work by another contractor, pleading with him to come to my rescue sort of like Holmes on Homes. Bob Sr was not available due to eye surgery but he made his son, Robert Hester, Jr come out the next day to take care of my problem. Robert and Donald arrived on time, put down drop cloths throughout the room and hall, finished the tearout professionally, went to the store to buy supplies, sealed up the holes, put the closet back together, taped and painted the closet, painted the bedroom, and then changed out my light fixtures. Robert Jr is fast, efficient, knowledgable, and does good quality work. Words cannot express my gratitude to Bob Sr for taking pity on me, and to Robert Jr for coming so quickly and doing such a good job. Did I mention that Bob Sr had bid on the job but I had chosen someone else just because they could start sooner and included changing light fixtures? So in addition to being professional, reasonably priced, and providing good quality work, Graciousness is at the top of the list.
Description of Work: Tore out damaged drywall in closet; tore out damaged wood in wall of closet; removed damaged insulation; caulked holes to outside; installed new insulation, new wood, new drywall; taped and painted closet; painted bedroom in which closet is located; replaced 2 light fixtures in other rooms.

During Tropical Storm Fay, part of the ceiling drywall above the garage door fell. I contacted Bob Hester and he was very reassuring about my concerns about more drywall damage. He got his team scheduled as soon as possible. The job was done in a little more than a half day. Very nice job and good clean up. Great communication from Bob himself, always returning my calls in a timely manner.

Bob did a fantastic job on the ceiling and also repaired several large holes caused by a plumbing re-pipe we had done. He was extremely nice, very professional and kept the mess to a minimum. I would highly recommend him for drywall work.
Description of Work: After knocking down a wall between our kitchen and dining room, we needed to match ceiling texture between the two rooms. Bob re-textured both ceilings using a technique that few contractors use anymore and managed to almost exactly match the ceiling texture in the rest of our house. I was told by 6 other contractors that this was almost impossible to do!
