Kornhaus Drywall Inc

Kornhaus Drywall textured the ceiling in our condo.  Craig Kornhaus did the actual work. He did a great job!

Alan has been employed by Kornhaus Drywall for 15+ years. To start with, he is a very nice man - quiet spoken, respectful, thoughtful. He called in advance to let me know he was on his way, applied himself quietly to doing the work he was hired to do, explained how and why he was doing what he was doing, cleaned up after himself on both work days, and last but not least does very good quality work. Always ask for Alan if you need work done by Kornhaus Drywall!

I liked Harold Kornhaus well enough but not everyone on his crew, I will speak to that later. There were two separate pieces of work that I asked Harold to consider and give me a quote. My first priority was the kitchen at this time and I felt I made that clear. When they arrived, Harold was all ready to do the other piece as well. I had not given him the approval to do so and felt he was being a bit pushy. He did not seem happy about it, but that's too bad. Several other steps have to be completed before we do the bigger job and I was not ready to move to another mess before this one was complete..
The lead man on the job was Alan. Alan seemed to be in charge of the project and I communicated with him freely. I explained my vision of the project, showed him the area where they could stage their tools and mentioned that there was a restroom in the back of the condo that they could use. While some of the master bath had been renovated, it was not complete. Water had not been hooked up in the sink, for instance. He acknowledged my request and said it was better than most places they have to use.
Alan is an amazing worker, with excellent skills in this area of construction. He is also QUITE tall, which helps when working on ceilings. Harold was punctual and professional but I was especially impressed with Alan. Harold brought another person on the job, but I had to ask that he leave, before the work was done . Immediately, this person was walking ALL OVER my house (when the work was in the kitchen), he was looking in each room, looking in boxes and asking me many personal questions. This made me very uncomfortable. I went outside to find Harold but he was gone, so I told Alan that the other guy was making me uncomfortable. Alan spoke to him and the interaction stopped. Later in the day I had to leave for an hour or so to return a car to the airport. I returned as Alan was finishing final clean up. The others were gone. Later I took a moment to see the work that was completed while I was away. The room was a mess, with plaster splashed everywhere including all over MY ladder and MY folding table. There was even plaster in a bedroom far from the kitchen. WHAT? I guess it is not uncommon, but they inadvertently put a fresh piece of drywall over the outlet for the stove. That was easily fixed the next day. But, it was also CLEAR that someone used the toilet in the master bath room because the lid was up and there were urine drips all over the place. Needless to say, I was not happy. I left a voice mail message for Harold and he called me in the morning. The unlikable worker was the one who used the wrong toilet (not a surprise--since he does not understand boundaries). I asked that he not come back and they honored that (though Harold did not seem sympathetic to my concerns). I don't know if the and quot;unlikableand quot; worker is a relative of his? But I hope I never see that person again and I would never allow him in my home. When Alan returned, he brought his own ladder and was more careful about drips, drop cloths, etc. But, then again, it was only Alan at this point. It was probably the unlikable one making the mess too. The major focus of this phase was to get smooth walls and ceilings. I believe I was pretty clear about this with Harold. After all, another phase was to remove popcorn from the ceilings and I know I mentioned that I did not like textured surfaces. So, I was shocked when Harold did not know I wanted my kitchen ceiling smooth. Textured ceilings may be popular in Florida but not where I live and not in my circle.
Alan finished the job alone, to my specifications, over a few days. He does beautiful work and if I could hire just him, I would be happy to do so.

I needed this work done within a week and a half. Harold put me on the schedule and said his guys would show up between 8:30 and 9am. They showed up exactly at 8:45. They were very nice guys and did an outstanding job. They matched the texture to the rest of my house and also matched the knockdown ceiling which I know isn't easy, but it looks great!
They were a little more expensive than some of the other quotes but to me its worth it for piece of mind after reading other reviews on here.
I love it when people show up on time and do a good job!

Harold and his team were INCREDIBLE. They fixed two ceilings, adding sheetrock, mud, and texture all in the same day. Truely amazing work, it that it was sooo good that it almost doesn't need painting.

Kornhaus Drywall came to our house within two hours of us calling them. They came out and gave us recommendations on the best texture for the walls. We received an estimate by the end of the day for patching and texturing all the walls and ceilings (approx. 1200 sq ft) and for putting drywall and texture on a ceiling (approx. 200 sq ft). We hired them and they started a couple of days later and were done two days later. The job overall went very smoothly and they were always punctual and professional.

I had a bit of difficulty getting ahold of Mr. Kornhaus, as he doesn't have an answering service and didn't call back right away. However, once I was able to reach him, he gave us a reasonable estimate for the work that needed to be done, and completed it in just a few hours. He was very professional, and the areas of drywall he patched and repaired look just like new. I would definitely use him again and recommend him to others.

I needed the job done in very short notice, so I could begin some other projects, and Kornhaus drywall was able to accommodate me and did a good job.

We hired Kornhaus to resurface the work from another drywall company that did just a horrible job. Kornhaus got the job done quickly which was very helpful because we had painter on hold. They resurfaced the walls and ceiling much better than the other company and were very professional. I am only sorry we did not find these guys first.

Mr. Kornhaus arrived at my home about an hour after I called him for an estimate. He looked at the damaged walls, gave me an estimate for the repair work, which I agreed was a fair amount, and said he could begin work the next day. He and his assistants did a quick, thorough, and excellent job, leaving nothing for me to clean up afterwards.
I would not hesitate to use their services again.

Call him on Wed afternoon -- he stopped by that afternoon to give and estimate - they had an opening because of a delayed job and di the work the next morning.They were amazing ! cut out the old drywall stain from a roof leak (now fixed) replaced drywall, tape, mud, paint - complete -- couldn't have been 3 hours -- actually came a little early.Even other contractors on site - mentioned to me later that those guys did good work !we are very satisfied !

Perfectly from beginning to end. Amazingly. Stellar work.
