Fresno Plaster Repair

Were ahead of schedule. Kept us updated and were very informative, warm, polite. Didn't take any short cuts, experienced craftsman. Clean and extremely careful. Stayed within their estimate and actually provided advice on other issues and future work we would like done. This is a long time family run business who came highly recommended. They are licensed, bonded and had no past citations or state board disciplines. Our pool looks brand new and we couldn't be happier with the outcome.

The job was done well. He knew all about the need to smooth the damaged plaster before installing the drywall. The prep and cleanup was thorough. No mess----no damage.

I found Affinity Drywall through Angie's List... I can't say enough about Adam - he is courteous, professional and always ensured the work area was clean when he finished for the day - and the quality of his work is outstanding! Adam is great to work with and always kept us informed of his progress, plus he had some excellent suggestions on how to improve the project. I highly recommend him.

I've used other general contractors in the past. They've been great, but I wanted to try someone else for a change. I'm glad I did. Eddie was friendly and attentive during our first telephone call. He made an appointment, came on time, examined the property, and provided a cost estimate. He explained his philosophy of business. We agreed on a repair date. Later, he telephoned to reschedule the repair date. On the new date, he came on time, made repairs, made an on-the-spot adjustment without adding to the cost, and finished on time. He accepted payment, shook my hand, and left. I realize that this is precisely how a general contractor should behave, but I also realize that such behavior ISN'T as common as it should be. I am extremely satisfied with the quality of workmanship, the work ethic of the general contractor, his punctuality, his manners, and his attention to detail. If I had the money, I would ask Eddie to fix up my entire house. As it is, I can only afford minor repairs or modifications here and there, but when I need more work done (does he do rain gutters?), he'll be the first person I call.

This company with fabulous. They were very easy to get a long with and great to work with. I didn't like the colors originally but he helped make some new samples and he came up color turned out beautiful. I would recommend them!

This company was created just as its previous incarnation, Valley Pool Plastering, Inc., had its license suspended. From the BBB: "As of January 21, 2010 the California Contractor's State Licensing Board confirmed that the license for Valley Pool Plastering, Inc. is under suspension for failure to comply with an outstanding civil judgment and under Contractors Bond Suspension." This "new" company, Valley Pool Resurfacing, Inc., was created the month prior. The principal/licensed contractor of the "new" company is Jason Rutledge. Since the elder Rutledge purportedly lost his license, you do the math. The phone number for the old company rings to new company and the web site address (www.valleypoolplastering.com) remains the same. The company's web site claims that they are an "active member of the National Plasterers Council," however, I did not find them listed on the council's web site. Unfortunately, I pieced all of this together far too late. Rather than fully recount the numerous examples of unprofessional representation, utter lack of responsiveness, and horrible reliability, I'll simply provide my final communication with this company: Mr. Rutledge and Valley Pool Resurfacing, Inc.: More than two weeks have now passed since you were put on notice to perform your obligations under the terms of our contract. With seemingly genuine concern, you promised both of us individually that you were going to personally take charge of the management of this project, that the project would be completed promptly, and that communication was not going to be a problem any longer. You have failed miserably in honoring each and every count of your commitments. You have far exceeded our patience while totally abusing the charitable opportunity afforded for you to redeem the reputation of your company. It is virtually incomprehensible how you could be so remarkably unconcerned with our project after all that has (and has not) transpired. Allow me to summarize the full amount of work that has been completed in the past two weeks: One old diving board was picked up and hauled off of the premises. And the number of times that you have personally come to the job site or e-mailed us or called us since promising to take the lead of this project and be communicative: Zero. Due to your failure to substantially perform your obligations in a timely and professional manner, and due to our reasonable anticipation that you will continue to fail to perform your obligations in the future, this e-mail shall serve as notice that you are in breach of the terms of the contract, ?Proposal & Acceptance,? dated 2010 May XX, and signed by . Said contract is cancelled immediately in its entirety. Hereafter, no more workers, representatives, or affiliates of your business shall be permitted to return to our property.

The first day John and his son Adam arrived, they coated floor and walls with plastic, put up scaffolding, tore out and hauled away all of the old drywall from the ceiling. John did the rest of the job on his own. We saved at least an hour a day because, although he offered to tear down all of the plastic on a daily basis, I told him not to bother because it seemed stupid to do the same work over and over. He began work on 3/12/12 and finished 10 days later. He cleaned up on a daily basis and is one of the most hard-working people it has ever been my pleasure to meet. The original job was to just put up insulation and new drywall, but after seeing all of the work he was proficient at, I expanded the contract to include everything else mentioned above. This was a huge job for one person and he did it extemely well.
