Dean did a great job with our drywall repair. Fair price and very easy to work with.

Dean came out and provided an estimated price range for the job. I coordinated a date & time for the work, he called the morning of - to make sure we’re still on for the job. (Great communication) The actual work he did was nothing short of excellent! I will say that I have a high bar, and Dean is one of these guys who takes great pride in his work. I must say - the craftsmanship, attention to detail, and making sure everything was literally PERFECT was surprising. Dean provided everything I expected, plus more - and the final cost was in the middle of his estimated price range. I will definitely use this company again!

Bill and Dean did a terrific job removing my popcorn ceiling throughout my condo. It was an incredible mess but they covered everything and cleaned up very well. The light knock-down texture was perfectly applied. I would definitely recommend them !!!

I was in a panic when I found out the number of holes the electrician needed to make to run cable throughout my newly built house. The company painting the house said they could do a few patches but not the number there ended up being. Bill Livingston Drywall was recommended by my brother-in-law and when I contacted him he was able to fit me in his schedule and keep the painting contractor on his schedule. Bill and his staff were professional and timely. His rate was fair. I would use him again and would recommend his company to anyone.

These guys are great. Not the lowest price but they are very professional and tell you all the requirements of the job up front. Many other contractors low ball the price to get the job and then add "extras" later. Another contractor (who also does dry wall) was quoting another job for me. He commented on what a good job the ceilings were.

"They had someone remove the popcorn on a huge ceiling and they never skimmed the tape joints before spraying texture. All the tape came loose. We replaced the tape and skimmed the entire ceiling and textured it orange peel. They were great to work for. Thank you for giving us a great report."

The motto of this company is "Let an artist do it!" and I am very happy with the job we received from Dean who was at my home for 2 days doing the job. In conjunction with getting my house painted, I needed to have the ceiling over my front walkway of my house refinished. The wallboard may have been original and there were many seam cracks and other signs of sloppy repairs by previous owner(s). It looked so bad that I assumed it was not repairable to my standards and researched many other options. I did reach out to Bill Livingston for his opinion and he told me that the ceiling was very salvageable and that they could repair it to "better than new". I'm a believer! The result was exceptional and blew me away. Additionally, my painters (who saw the before and after) were equally impressed at the transformation. I don't know how many people Bill has working for him.....but if you demand that Dean do your job, you will not be sorry. Dean loves his work, he's enormously skilled and he's a genuinely nice guy. I have some additional work that needs to be done early next year and it's Dean or nobody!

I contacted Bill and he had a crew out the same week to repair an leak in my ceiling. Gene & Terry, arrived right on time and did a FANTASTIC job repairing the ceiling. They were are true professionals and take great pride in their work. After the paint went on, you couldn't even tell there was a repair made as it was blended perfectly. Gene is a drywall artist! An added bonus, they were super nice, and a delight to chat with. If I ever need to make another drywall repair, they will be my first call!

Bill Livingston was superb, and I would highly recommend them. I hired after reviewing angies list contractors and getting a few estimates. I needed the work done while I was in a different state, and needed a contractor that I could trust to do an excellent job without me supervising. I did not see the finished job until months later when I had the house interior painted, and it was perfect. After painting the rooms looked like new (probably better than the original construction actually). I had no issues, they showed up when the promised, and finished when they promised. Excellent work.

We have used this company twice, both times they were easy to work with and have done excellent work. Dean is a master of matching drywall textures, hard to tell any work was ever done . we will definitely use them again, and we highly recommend them for drywall work.

Bill, the owner, was quick to set up a time. The job actually occurred at the time of the initial visit to the home sine apparently it was not big job. Dean, who did the job, stated he could do it now sine it was not a big deal and he was already here. Overall, glad that I said yes. In less than 2 hours, the left behind, cancerous-looking drywall along the edges of recently installed splash back was no longer. While I would have welcome Dean painting the area as well, he stated he plastered walls, he did not paint them, and smiled. Bill, the owner, visited the site just prior to Dean wrapped up the job. If you welcome Average Joe’s doing good quality work, call them. Hopefully, you will be pleased too.

Bill was very responsive. Explained entire job. Provided worst case scenario. Dean & Terry arrived as scheduled. Explained everything. Took great care of everything in my home. Replaced insulation. Trimmed excess pipe from ceiling; giving nice finish to ceiling. Job completed on time. Excellent cleanup! Dusted everything in room, cleaned floor. Great team! Will definitely call again if needed. Thanks!

Overall, this was a great experience. Bill came out to quote the job and provided an estimate quickly. We were in a rush to get this done so we could have some furniture delivered and he was able to accommodate our schedule. His worker was on site for 2 days and did quality work.

Bill and his employee were very punctual from the free estimate along with the 2 days they worked on my projects. The work was extremely well done, well above my expectations. They were very knowledgeable and didn’t take shortcuts to save time. They textured the wall afterwards to match existing walls and popcorned the ceiling, it’s hard to tell where the repair was even made. Bill told me “I’m not the cheapest but I am the best” and I feel like I got more than my money’s worth. I would highly recommend Bill to anyone whether they need just a small hole patched or an entire room drywalled, they have the tools and experience to make it look perfect.

They ran into issues but stayed on the job and got it done to my satisfaction. I paid totally at the completion of the job. There were some unforseen issues that they showed me and explained to me. I had hired them Four years ago and would hire them again.

This team was very professional, efficient, on time, and very attentive to detail. At the end of the project they swept and washed out my garage floor, leaving the area nicer than it was. They went beyond the call of duty and secured other areas of my ceiling that seemed loose. I will definitely call them again for ceiling & drywall projects!

We are very happy with the results and have already requested and quickly received an estimate for removing popcorn ceilings inside our home which will be done soon.

Pretty good but he forgot one spot and the ceiling was not done as well as expected. Also, there were spots of plaster on the floor and the fireplace.
Response from Bill Livingston Inc
"All I'm going to say is I worked for this guy several times and he knew all he had to do is call me and I'd be right there to fix anything he wasn't happy with. Anything less then an A is a failing grade to us."
