Mr. Vaughan was on time when he came to give the estimate and just a few minutes late on the day of the job, for which he sincerely apologized. He replaced a large piece of drywall in the ceiling where I had fallen through the attic floor, and he made replacements and repairs throughout the house where there were cracks from settling and where surfaces were discolored and uneven due to water damage. He also removed the caulk and treated an area over the bathtub that had mold or mildew before he repaired the drywall. I had marked the areas in the house that needed repair, but he found several additional spots that needed attention, and he did those without adding to the original estimated price. He cleaned up in each room as he completed each job, and worked nonstop until all of the repairs were finished . He then left for an hour or so while the mud dried, and then came back to sand and level the areas until they were completely smooth and flat. I had to leave before he returned, but a friend of mine was there to meet him when he arrived to finish the job. She commented on how friendly he was. Later, after we repainted the rooms, we could not tell where the repairs had been made. Mr. Vaughan is friendly, polite, and a true professional. I highly recommend him.

My call was promptly returned and JL came out to give me an estimate the same day. The very next morning he was here promptly at 9:00 to begin work. He was polite, professional, and knowledgable...and the repair looks fabulous. I would definitely use this company again and confidently refer them to my family and friends.

I removed a wall between between my kitchen and my family room myself... I totally screwed up the drywall... This was one week before a house party and the wife was not happy. I called Lark; he came over same day and provided a quote. He promptly came by next day and fixed my problems. Totally professional and reasonably priced I will use him again.

This is the second time I have used JL and Lark D. Drywall and once again I was not disappointed. JL returned my call very quickly and came out when promised to give me a quote. He comes when he says he is going to and finishes on time as promised. He is very professional and does a good job everytime. I would not hesitate to recommend JL for any drywall job and I will be using him again as I finish the last phase of my plumbing work.

Mr. Vaughan was a pleasure to work with. He was honest, fair and punctual. He started when he said he would and completed the work on time. He explained everything completely and left nothing unexpected. He cleaned up each day before leaving. Not to mention he worked with my family's schedule. The result of his work is outstanding. I was nervous at first dealing with a new contractor, but after he finished, I felt very comfortable. Mr Vaughan did a great job at a great price and I will definitely hire him again

JL was tidy, very personable, and quick. He provided a great service for a good price and I was pleased with the quality of his work.
Description of Work: JL repaired a hole in my kitchen ceiling caused by a leaking shower drain in the bathroom above. He carefully cut out an area of drywall, checked for mold/mildew, replaced with a fresh piece of drywall, tape, and mud. He also repaired a nearby piece of tape that was cracked and discolored due to the water damage. He then skimmed a couple areas in my master bathroom where shotty drywall and joint compound work had left the walls very wavy.

He was very good. I’m very pleased with him. He came. He was very professional. He did what I wanted him to do. He gave me a good price. He was prompt and professional. He was excellent. He had come couple of days after I called him. He was here when he said he would. I didn’t go any further. I would use them in the future. I will have him back to take care of this work.

We got two other estimates and we chose another company besides Lark D Drywall. The guy from Lark D Drywall was very personable. We didn’t have any complaints with him. The other person suggested some other kind of fix for our problem and we kind of liked his idea better. We didn’t have any complications with Lark D Drywall at all. Joseph Vaughan is the owner. His quote was around $2200. He was very friendly and very nice. He was punctual and that’s probably a really good thing. His responsiveness was good. We didn’t have any problems with him. We would probably not use him again because we liked the work done by the other gentleman that we found on Angie’s List.

JL told me that he could have materials delivered and start by Tuesday. I was pleasantly surprised when I got home on Monday and he had all the insulation done. When I got home on wednesday the drywall was all hung and they finished taping and mudding early Saturday. There was a small spot that was above the garage door that didn't initially get done but when the crew first came out to drywall they had the garage door open where they couldn't see that area but JL had it done in no time at all the day we did the final walk through. He did such an outstanding job that I am hiring him to pressure wash my house. I will give a follow up when that is complete. JL is a great example of what individual contractors should be - he calls back immediately, he shows up when he says he will, he will leave a message if you are unable to answer the phone and he would leave a progress report on the days I arrived home after he was finished for the day. If you need drywall work, do not hesitate, call JL.
Description of Work: I had a garage built earlier this year and to keep the costs down I divided up the builder, painter, electrician and drywall. The only business I was completely satisfied with was Lark D Drywall. It seems way too difficult to get businesses in the Richmond area to respond in any type of timely manner but JL called back within a day and was out to look at the project the day after that. He started the next week, insulate, drywall, tape and mud a 26 x 30 detached garage.

I called JL and left him a voice mail about what had happened to our ceiling. He called me back the same day and set a date and time to come out to give us an estimate on the job. He called the day before the appointment just to confirm we were expecting him. He arrived when he said he would and was very professional and friendly. His estimate was very reasonable. He did a great job on the ceiling and it looks like new. He even called after the job to make sure we were satisfied. I will definitely use this company again!
Description of Work: This was a ceiling repair job. The drip pan under our central air unit (which is in the attic) had corroded through, so the water that drained from the unit soaked into the ceiling. This caused a 6'x3' section of our hall ceiling to collapse. JL had to replace the insulation and drywall on our hall ceiling.

JL was very easy to work with, arrived promptly, returned phone calls quickly, cleaned up well before leaving each day and was very accommodating with our family's schedule. He completed the big problem areas in our house with excellent results, but was just as good with the "mini" dry wall repairs we had in multiple rooms. It is hard to find contractors willing to do the small jobs--believe me, I had tried before calling Lark D. Drywall! JL did an excellent job at a very fair price. I have already recommended him to several friends. I will definitely use him again for any future dry wall repairs. L.H. in Chester
Description of Work: JL did extensive drywall repair inside the house in preparation for painting. Upon examination of the drywall in the master bedroom he discovered that the original drywall had not been installed properly. He could have covered over the problem with more drywall, but he showed us the problem, gave us several options for a successful repair, made the corrections-- all with an excellent end result.. He also expertly repaired a very large hole in our upstairs hallway where someone had fallen through the ceiling from the attic. He then repaired a large wall area that had been damaged by a roof leak and in three other rooms he repaired numerous other holes, cracks, and sheet rock 'cut outs' due to previous electrical repairs.

Joseph gave us a good price and performed the work punctually and well. He is very easy to work with and I felt totally comfortable that I didn't need to watch everything he did, which is the case with some contractors if you want it to be done right. He cleaned up well after himself and he was careful of plants when he was doing the pressure washing. I highly recommend him.

Recommended by our painter and glad we used J.L. He is excellent at what he does! Will definetly use again in near future. Thanks for a job done to perfection!
Description of Work: There were places in the ceiling in our large bedroom upstairs, where the tape that was used when house was built was coming down, drywall was cracking down the wall and ceiling. The ceiling has intricate design. Also, places in hallway upstairs and a large place at top of wall at stairwell. J.L. fixed all places and other small places with no problems, you couldn't even tell they were there when he finished. He also had a gentleman with him that did the ceiling in bedroom with design and you would never be able to find it! We found him to be a very hard worker, knowledgeable and willing anything from the smallest to the largest. On time and finished when he said he would be finished. Returned phone calls in a very quick manner. We would definetly use J.L. again for a job again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! G & P Chester, VA.
