Do not waste your time. They canceled last minute and rescheduled multiple times. Terrible communication and the owner is rude. After weeks of chasing them, they wanted to refer us out because they didn't have time. Why put us on the schedule and string us along for weeks, causing us to miss work. Terrible.
Description of Work: part of a firewall.

Description of Work: Paid fot 2 hrs @ $70, then he left another for another 2 hrs then billed for additional time. After an intense discussion he called even. If he had told md before hand he was leavi g the second person it would have been different. The work was good, just didn't like how it was handled. | |

Response from Fatboy Drywall
The deal was $70 for 1 worker for 2 hours. You got 2 workers for 2 hours each making a total of 4 hours work. Your repair required 4 hours to complete. The deal was any additional work over 2 hours would be billed at our normal fee. That is why you got a bill for the additional 2 hours. If one worker had done the job, it would have taken him 4 hours to complete. You [Member Information Removed] would have been billed for the additional 2 hours. After several discussions with you, it was my decision to not require you to pay for the additional 2 hours and call it even. I'm sorry there was a misunderstanding and appreciate that you were happy with the repairs.

Leakage from an AC unit in the attic caused a portion of the ceiling to collapse, leaving a hole of approximately 3 ft. x 3 ft. Fat Boys crew removed additional damaged drywall and filled the hole with new drywall. They taped the seams and re-plastered the ceiling to match the existing ceiling. The repair is barely noticeable. Prior to performing the work they covered the carpet below with paper and draped the work area on all four sides from floor to ceiling with plastic to contain the dust and debris. Afterward everything was left as clean as before. The two men were courteous and professional. The cost for the work was more than reasonable. I would highly recommend them.
Description of Work: Repaired large hole in ceiling.

I made a second appointment for some additional work to be done and they didn't show up.
Description of Work: They did some patching the first time they came out. They first time was great, the second attempt to get some work done was a failure.

We appreciate your good review on our drywall work. We pride ourselves on a job well done and leaving the work site clean. I'm sorry you got upset, but as I recall, you called us back for another job and when you said you needed electrical work done, I explained that I am not a licensed electrician and do not do electrical work. Thank you for taking the time to post this review.

They came to the house on time and worked for 2 days until the job was done. They did a very professional job including clean up. I would use them again anytime.
Description of Work: Fat boys did some dry walling at my house. They removed 3 windows and a door inside of my home and replaced with drywall.

Scheduled estimate, called 15 minutes before the time to reschedule, didn't show up the second time and didn't respond to phone calls. How on earth do they have this many good reviews? How do you persuade them to come to your house? Candy bars?

Wow, after being told that Joe's work was some of the best ever seen, it was a lot to live up to and he did not disappoint. They came and covered everything fully to make sure nothing was exposed to the plaster being applied to the ceiling. I mean the walls and even a paper trail from outside the house to the back room where they would be walking. He gave me a selection of plaster effects that could be used. Not only did he do the bedroom but ,when asked, some small spots on the ceilings of other rooms. He was so quick. They work well and efficiently together. After it all dried up, it was beautiful and I smile every time I look at it. They were a little late due to another job they were working on that went overtime, but he was well worth the wait.
Description of Work: Fatboys came to drywall a ceiling that had been peeling.

Fatboy Drywall did an outstanding job. Diego showed up on time and performed an awesome job. You could tell he genuinely took pride in his work and took his time and did it right. Put down paper to protect my flooring and cleaned up immaculately. I'd definitely use them again.

Fatboy Drywall they were fast and efficient. Very good experience, I would recommend them again. What stood out was the efficiency and how fast they came out and did the job and they did it in one day and they were very professional about it. No fuss no muss. They just came out and did the job.
Description of Work: Fatboy Drywall they did texturing to the upstairs and the downstairs drywall. They didn't actually install the drywall, they did drywall texture and get is ready for painting.
