I would highly recommend him.  There were some problems with my walls, but he had them fixed, so the job was done well, and looks just right.  The cost did increase from the estimate, but only because it took a few extra days to complete.  They clean up every day, and are always polite and professional.  Al was around and available to his men.  I was amazed that they actually showed up when Hurricane Sandy was projected to start on Monday, and then came again on Weds. when we told him we had no power or heat..  He just said they would bring flashlights so they could finish the job, and they did!  I feel you can count on him.

He wrote down some things, but I didn't feel it was concise enough for me to go forward on it.

Exceeded expectations! Al was a pleasure to work with, very professional, flexible, cooperative and helpful; he communicated with us well, kept us posted on his schedule, and was prompt.  He examined the deck and found it sound, no repairs needed; he powerwashed one day, and returned the following week when we had several sunny days to complete all of the staining and painting in a day-and-a-half... it was  a lot of work. He did more painting than we expected, even addressing some adjoining garage trim which resulted in a very finished and attractive result.  The deck and surrounding arbor/fencing/attached garage now look beautiful.  His team is extremely neat and clean.. not a drop or smudge left behind.  Our deck and surrounding areas never looked so good!  We highly recommend HV Deck & Wall and look foward to working with Al when we being the interior work on our home.

The owner, Mr. Allen, is very nice to work with.  He has got experience and very profesional.  He and his crew member did a good job within the budget as quoted. He even did more in some minor repairs as needed without charges. He has been a great help to help me managing my property for rent since I am in Houston Texas. He even offered more painting for a better look than I required. His price is also excellent in comparison with other bids I got. Thank you for a job well done!

"It was our mistake that this customer was given the wrong estimate. We gave her an estimate based on square footage, and not an hourly rate. It was the company's lack of communication to the employee doing the estimate. At the least, we would be more than happy to provide a new estimate based on an hourly rate.

First of all, it was difficult to get a date for him to do the work.  I wanted him to paint the ceilings in my living room and foyer area (roughly 400 sq ft of area) and he stated that the Big Deal would only cover the living room area. He then went on stating that the $399.00 that I had paid would end up being a good deal because he has to pay Angie’s List some money, however, he agreed to do this.  He then didn’t show up on the day we scheduled the appointment. He then showed up a week later and walked in the house and told us that we owed him a $29.99 for fuel surcharge. He showed up at 8:00am and we argued for approximately 15-20 minutes about the fuel surcharge and I told him to leave at which point he said he would do the job, however, only the living room area and not the foyer area. He ended up painting only the interior ceiling of the living room only and leaving at approximately 3:15pm.
Response from H V Deck & Wall

"Regarding the above statement, the coupon was for $399.00, which covered 8 hours of painting. The ceilings in the living room were 16 feet high. Cutting in, taping, covering, moving furniture, and setting up ladders, also takes time, which IS included in the 8 hours. It is mentioned above, that the Owner stated “ The BIG DEAL would only cover the living room area” Beginning the foyer, would have put us into another day of work. The customer then would have been responsible for the labor time then. As per the conversation regarding the fuel surcharge, the crew was working during this conversation, by unloading the truck and bringing in the materials that were needed. As a result of our conversation, the customer was NOT charged the fuel surcharge. As for the scheduling issue, the customer and I had a hard time coming to a start date which brought in some confusion, When we did come to a start date; it was in MY error by not scheduling it with my crew. None of these customers’ complaints constitute a refund of any sort. It is in my opinion that this customer is trying to get something for nothing. Owner stated, and customer also mentioned it in the complaint that “the BIG DEAL would only cover the living room” Owner did explain to him that it would NOT cover the foyer. As my crew finished the job that day, I had spoke with the wife, and I had asked her, “Are you happy with the job?’, and she stated, “It was good.”"

On Tuesday, my wife and I realized that we needed to paint our ceiling ASAP. I called HV Deck & Wall on Wednesday morning and spoke with Al (the owner) about our time crunch and described the project. Al was able to quote immediately on the phone and amazingly, he was available to come before the weekend and complete the work. When I mentioned being an Angie's List member and that my wife and I found him through Angie's, he explained that they were running a promotion at the time and offered me a discount on the spot - I didn't even have to ask! We agreed on the project and finalized the scheduling all during that first call. Al really came to our rescue and the ceiling looks awesome. He was also very personable and had some great stories - all in all, a great experience and we will definitely seek him out for future projects. Thanks Al!

Al, Albert and Eddie were all pleasant and did a great job with the bedroom. They scheduled to my convenience and were prompt. They worked straight through and were able to finish a bit ahead of schedule. The special was a very good value. I would use them again for the quality of their work.

They were very prompt and worked hard. Prepping the area could have been better;  although they mopped the floor they could have been better about covering everything more thoroughly with drop cloth. We were over charged $200 until I later pointed out the error (he'd forgotten to deduct the coupon amount already paid). He is going to drop off a check for the amount. Over all, they were good, prompt, and pleasant, but could use improvement in the cleaning-up area.
UPDATE: Al dropped off the money we were over charged, and also fixed a couple of scratches on the floor that happened when a dresser was moved. He didn't have to do that - it was very good of him. Also, should note that the over charge was clearly a mistake - not intentional. Want to be clear about that. Also, Al and his 2 workers were always pleasant and prompt.

Al, the owner, came to give me an estimate.  We agreed on a date to get the job done. Al and his crew showed up on time, and did a great job taking off the wallpaper without hurting the sheet rock. They then patched the places that needed to be smoothed out, and painted the ceiling.

After the patched sections of the walls dried, they painted. The walls were painted a much darker color than the ceiling, and the lines were very straight and professional.

I removed a towel rack before the paint job, and I had trouble reattaching it. Al  went to get a part and reattached the towel rack. This was above and beyond, and very kind of him.

Al and his crew did a very professional job. They showed up on time, worked quickly, and cleaned up after the job.

I would not hesitate to recommend them.

HV Deck and Wall are true professionals. The men showed up on time every single day, and worked diligently. The wallpaper in the kitchen came off easily, but the foyer and hallway were difficult to remove. The job lasted about 2 weeks,and every day before leaving my house, the men cleaned and mopped the floors. They were respectful, polite, and hardworking. I was extremely pleased with the finished result, and would hire them again in a heartbeat. I highly recommend this company.

Although the wallpaper was removed little pieces remained in crevices and corners.  In addition the cleanup of the kitchen was incomplete.  I had to clean up the kitchen floor to remove pieces of wallpaper.  In addition they got removing chemical on my newly resurfaced and finished hardwood floors.  I had to scrub the floor to remove the residue.

I hired this company to remove the wallpaper on some rooms in my house. The walls in the entrance, hall, powder room and Dinning room needed the paper removed, I took care of the Dinning room and they did the rest. To my surprise, the 199.99 deal was only for a limited square footage and I was charged over 1,300.00 dollars for the job minus the dinning room. I was charged another 675.00 since they continued to work on fixing the walls in the hall (which I assumed it was part of the already 1300.00 I paid) and they started to fix some walls in the Livingroom without authorizing the job. I don't recommend this company and when purchasing deals from Angie please read the small prints.
Response from H V Deck & Wall

"Dear Member, I am sorry you are not satisfied with HV DECK AND Wall services. In response to your comment, I would like to explain to you and the members of Angies List the circumstances surrounding your complaint. I gave you a detailed written estimate for the services that you requested prior to us starting any services, and you agreed the estimate. At no point, did you speak to me while the work was being done and tell me not to continue. As removal was being done for the wallpaper, there were cracks in the walls that needed to be corrected. Underlying cracks in walls, plaster walls, or foundations can cause serious illnesses to anyone. Bacteria and mold can begin to grow once the cracks are exposed to flowing air. We were unaware that the walls were in the condition they were in before removing the wallpaper. As the limited square footage you spoke about, the coupon states that it is $199.99 per 160 square feet. It also states that some projects can take longer than others. I have been trying to call you and speak to you regarding this matter. If you could please contact me, so we can speak further about it, I would appreciate it. Again I am sorry for the confusion, and misunderstanding of the contract and the coupon that was advertised."

Walls in two bedrooms were severely gouged and damaged after removing wallpaper from unprimed drywall.  Called HV Deck & Wall for an estimate to skim coat..  Al arrived at the stated date and time, estimate was fair, work started on time was completed by the stated date (3 days).  The walls are now smooth as glass.  Punctual, fair, superb workmanship-couldn't ask for more.  Will definitely call again.

Al responded quickly to my email and came to give us his estimate.  He asked questions about what we wanted and explained that until they start to pull off the wallpaper it is hard to judge how long it might take and if there would be an additional charge. He came back with the estimate promptly and we agreed to his price.  He was able to start us within a week for this 2 day job.  He picked up the color choices a day ahead and arrived ready to work with 2 painters the next morning at 7:00am.  The were quiet, polite and hard-working. They cleaned up at the end of each day and on the second day put the furniture back.  We have only good things to say about the 3 of them.
