Hired on Thumbtack

After attempting to skimcoat and repair our own drywall, we decided it was time to let a professional take over. After some searching, we found Erik's profile on Thumbtack and were impressed by his reviews. Here we are less than 2 weeks after contacting him with a room that's ready to be painted. There's no surprise why Erik comes highly recommended - his communication is clear, he shows up when he says he will, and his work is high quality. He showed up, completed his work in the time frame he said he would, and the final price was exactly what he quoted us in the beginning. There were no surprises, just the satisfaction of a job well done. Would certainly hire him for any drywall or paint job in the future and will recommend him to anyone who asks.

We have an older house and the plaster ceiling in our dining room was sagging and had a ton of areas that needed to be fixed. The job ended up being larger than expected but Erik was able to handle it and we are super happy with the end result. Erik was very nice, professional, punctual and the price was very reasonable for the quality of work. Would definitely recommend Erik for any plastering, drywall and painting needs.

Erik was a pleasure to work with. He came over to scope out the job, gave me a daily rate which I thought was very fair for the amount of work and gave me a start date that he stuck to. He approximated it would take 3 days and he took 3 very well spent days. He did some very intricate work on stair risers, hand railings and spindles. Painted 2 bedrooms that were carpeted and a ceiling downstairs that was over hardwood floors and some kitchen closet doors and a bay window. He did a fabulous job with no paint on carpet or hardwood floors or any door or window hardware. I would hire him again in a NY minute!

Details: Home • 2 rooms • Trim • Ceiling • Doors • Window frames • 8 - 10 feet • Repainting - same color • Fair - minor holes and scratches • No, this is not new construction • No, I will move things out of the way myself

Erik was great. He completely transformed my upstairs hallway from what honestly looked like a dungeon into something beautiful. Imagine broken old plaster with half peeled wallpaper from the 1800s, exposed wiring, and a ceiling that had holes in it. He expertly re-plastered my walls and dry walled my ceiling and they look flawless. He was professional, on time, and on a personal level, he was someone I didn’t mind having in my house for over a week. I plan on using him in the very near future again for a painting project. I highly recommend Erik!
