Description of Work: We purchased a deal for 1 1/2 hours of drywall repair through Angies List. After a couple of false starts on timing (which were handled well on the part of the service provider), we finally got all the ducks in a row for work to begin. | |I don't know if they did not have enough time, or if they weren't skilled at ceiling repairs, but we were left with uneven drywall that differed on depth up to half an inch. One piece was not even screwed into the joists properly and hung down below the rest because of it. It was a disappointing result at best. | |I did call and email the company, offering too pay additional money for the job too be finished properly, however I got no response. | |We recently hired someone else to do the job over. The difference in the quality of work was remarkable, and it took longer. I wish Tapia's had simply told us the job was more than they could handle in the time allotted by the deal before any of the work began.

Hello: [removed member name] Let me respond to your review first!!! you never met me ( Walter) I met your husband all the time (2 times ) the first time the ceiling was not clean and ready for us, the second time we did the 1 1/2 hours opening the right space for the new drywall because your ceiling is plaster not drywall then I explain him (your husband) why the drywall was not level, he said that moment ( 7 months ago don't worry ) I know is not a new house, but anyways thank you for your time to write the review Walter Tapia second !!!! you never called me back about the repair your complete ceiling because I always respond to my calls or e-mail especially if they need extra work from us.

My first angie's list experience was great. Walter was on time for the estimate and gave a very competitive price. He was able to start a few days later and showed up on time. Their attention to detail was fantastic. They sanded every surface, filled cracks, repaired botched ceiling spackle, caulked, primed, then painted. Everything looks brand new and my home is over 100 years old. The crown molding and chair rail look awesome. I really like that they are a small crew of Walter, his brother, and two more guys. The job went quickly and our house (furniture) was put back together just like we wanted. We will be using them again for another project upstairs in a couple months.

Walter and his crew showed up at the appointed time. They did extensive patching. The previous tenant left numerous holes in the walls and trim. They masked and covered the floors. The apartment looks good. Walter's crew is neat and cleaned up when done. This is the second time we have used Tapia's Works. We will use them again next time.

Walter installed crown molding throughout our 5 room condo. His price included installation, caulking of seams/nail spots, painting of molding and touch up of walls/ceiling. His price was awesome!! And his work is amazing! The molding looks PERFECT! No seams, no gaps, perfect paint job. He was very careful with our furniture and covered everything with plastic. He moved everything for us and moved it all back when he was done. It took approximately a day and a half from start to finish. I just can't say enough about what a great job he did and how excellent it looks. He was very easy to work with and was on time for both the initial estimate and for both days of work at our condo. Totally amazed at the quality and reasonable price. We would definitely use his business again for our future home improvement projects!

I decided to go with another company whose estimate was comparable. The only difference was that we were familiar with the other company's work. I would definitely keep Tapia's Works in mind for another project.

I was looking to get a new paint job done in my new loft and was very pleased with the overall work done by Tapia's Works. Mr. Tapia was very helpful in providing his professional opinion and in answering my questions. The paint job looks amazing and the place was left very clean when the job was completed. I will definitely use Tapia's Works again in any future paint projects.

It was nice because he was able to do the work a day sooner than he originally thought he would. He did the work very well and very inexpensively. They were very professional and responsive to me. He was easily available over the telephone. He was very personable and he encouraged me to ask him any questions. He gave me his cell phone number when I first met him.

We were in the midst of remodeling work in our living room, dining room and foyer. As novice do-it-your-selfers, we had removed a peeling canvas from our 98 year old plaster ceilings. We KNEW immediately we were in over our heads and had the skill to neither repair the ceiling nor replace the canvas. Walter Tapia responded to our call the very next day and came to assess the job. He explained the pro's and con's of repairing the plaster cracks versus replacing the canvas. Based on his advice, we decided to have him repair, prime and paint. He priced the job for us on the spot (Thursday evening). We accepted his bid. His team performed prep work Friday afternoon and evening, and completed the job on Saturday. There were a couple of blisters which Walter inspected on Sunday and repaired on Monday. He has followed up twice to see if we are still satisfied. Additionally, his assistant primed our crown molding which was not in scope for no extra charge. They were very clean and workmanlike, leaving no mess for us to clean up. We were very pleased with the outcome of the work. We highly recommend them and will use them again.

I met Walter when he estimated a job for another company and decided to call him directly for this next job. He was readily available by phone and was on time for the estimate. We agreed on a date and his crew showed up on the appointed day and finished on time. This was a two day job. They finished about 3:30 the next day. The painting looks good. They cleaned up and left some paint for touchups. I thought the price was a little high, $800 for 2 men for 2 days. $500 for materials. We discussed the materials cost and did not agree on the amount of paint needed (I priced the paint and thought the cost should be less than $400), but we decided to go ahead with the job anyway. I have always done my own painting in the past so I have a pretty good idea of the time and materials required to paint this apartment. I did not have time this time to paint because of my day job commitments and it was hard for me to get over paying for someone to paint. Over all I was very pleased with the painting. Walter was able to complete the job within a week. They were neat, cleaned up and the job looks professionally done. Plus I did not have to do the painting myself. Maybe next time I will buy the paint myself. I plan to call Tapia next time I need painting.

Walter was punctual and evaluated what needed to be done immediately. The job was a little unusual, and he had to leave briefly to get some necessary additional materials (blades, I think). He returened promptly, and completed the job. He cleaned up after the work and left the room in very good order. He is also friendly and pleasant to work with. I strongly recommend him.

We discussed the details on the telephone. I told him what I wanted and quickly realized that he had the right idea -- better than what I had envisioned. His crew arrived early, set up quickly, and got right to work. They cleaned up afterwards and made sure everything was put back into place. It was a small job, but done very well. It couldn't have gone smoother. I'm really happy with the way it went.
