After my basement flooded... I found them and Gus was AMAZING! they covered all the flooring and TV & Cabinets, Packed up my stuff and brought it up... Used a fiberglass drywall s it will never have to come out again... He went above and beyond repairing some loose bricks in the foundation, even set me up with someone to come replace the baseboards...and his price was so good I ended up with extra insurance $ left over!

Our basement has never been in better shape! Gustavo is definitely one of the most detailed and communicative professionals we have ever worked with on home repairs. He was innovative, brought us solutions to choose from and made the process highly interactive. Thank you!

I am very happy with Gustavo's work. He came in cheaper than drywall contractors. They’re professional and ended up providing a level 5 finish to make sure I was happy. I would recommend him for any drywall and painting work. All in all was a really solid and consistent job.

My experience was top notch! Gustavo was responsive and respectful of my time and willingly made adjustments to accommodate my schedule. His work resulted in a space that my family loves to to hang out in. I was especially impressed when Gustavo came back after the completion of the job to fix an area that was innocently unnoticed due to the lighting. He continues to be responsive and available if additional areas need attention. I would recommend Element Drywall & Painting to anyone that is looking for a reliable, reasonably priced craftsman.

Gustavo was awesome to work with! We had to patch the holes immediately because they were open to the crawlspace within the house and he was able to start the next day after we contacted him. This project took three days to complete and he kept me notified when he would be arriving and what he would be doing every day. He accidentally broke a handheld shower faucet while doing repairs, and quickly ran out to buy a new one and installed it at no charge. His drywall work was extremely high quality and it's obvious he takes great pride in his work. He even swept and mopped when he was done - the house looks immaculate. I would definitely hire DLB again. Highly recommended!

I’ve used DLB Drywall twice now and both times they’ve been great. This time we needed tiles installed on our basement floor as well as drywall replaced and painted. The work looks great! Gus is always in contact and very dependable.

Overall an A grade on the project. Gustavo did some drywall repair and painting for a townhouse in the city. He takes pride in his work and is one of the most communicative contractors I've worked with.

It was a beautiful job they did. Gustavo Banales and his workers make sure customer will be completely satisfied with the work and pay a lot of attention to details. I'm very happy with the beautiful job.
Description of Work: They took off the whole ceiling and they reinforce the ceiling with more woods. They painted the ceiling and walls afterwards They reason why they took off the ceiling. because of a water damage coming from the broken pipe and toilet at the 2nd floor.

Gustavo did a great job with our project! He communicates well and was very thorough and insightful, keeping us updated throughout the whole process with photos, texts and video files, when we could not be at the work site. Gustavo was very knowledgeable about his craft and often informed us about things that we were not aware of. Working with him was very informative and even educational. Moreover, when there were issues that arose he pointed them out while providing us with multiple options for how to proceed and also suggesting what might be the ideal choice. Element Drywall and painting helped us greatly and even pointed out and performed some small fixes beyond the scope of their contract for no additional charge. It was a pleasure working with Gustavo and his crew. Most importantly, the work is top notch, with a very high level of quality that we were extremely pleased with.

Gus was extremely responsive and the quality was great. Would absolutely hire again. The drywall in our garage looks better than our house. Beautiful mudding -- can't see any seams despite irregular walls. Priming looks so good we are not "finish" painting. Gus also improved the look of our electrical outlets, I like his attention to detail. Team was punctual, friendly and cleaned up nicely.

One bedroom wall with window needed to new drywall and insulation. They sealed the masonry from inside filling any air gaps. Then they installed insulation, and drywall. Then was the taping and priming of the drywall. Finally the paint job. Every aspect of this job was professionally completed. The corners around were perfect. I would use them again.

Gustavo did a great job. He is very detailed and puts a lot of effort into his work. He repaired all walls before painting so the project took a little longer to finish. He was very responsive and professional I would absolutely hire again.

Gustavo did an AMAZING job! We needed drywall fix all throughout the kitchen due to paneling, backsplash and soffit being removed, ceiling drywall replacement due to water damage, drywall install in a small hallway, and full drywall replacement in a small bathroom. We were very nervous for this project since we've heard many drywall horror stories from friends. We found Gustavo on Angie's List and can not believe how lucky we got. He was very thorough and detail oriented, and made sure the final results were high quality. Very impressed by the quality of his work and the wonderful job he did!

Excellent! I was in a bind because another contractor put a hole in my wall and I needed it filled ASAP. Gustavo understood my situation and was able to fit me in. He didn’t take advantage of the fact that I needed the work done immediately and he charged me a fair price. He took great care in the work he did and even cleaned up some of the mess left by the other contractors. I also asked him to fill another small hole we had in another wall and to help me hang a bar in the kitchen and he did an excelent job with both. I would definitely hire him again.
