They're very good. Their price was fair. I called them right after we had a foundation problem and since I called several others and they all gave me a quote. They fix it right away and we really don't like the paint that we've chosen so they repainted that wall for us and we have to pat for it but it took their time.
Description of Work: We used Drywall Repair Specialists because we had a foundation problem that had a lot of crack painting and so they have to repaint it.

I originally asked for help with a hole near the bathtub, but the provider noticed that there was a water leak that was causing the problem. The plumbers had to cut another hole to fix the problem, so he wound up repairing both holes. They were done well and on time, I was very pleased with the work.

I had electrical work done which many left large holes in the drywall in my garage, so I had this firm come to repair them. After the repairman arrived I showed him two other spots that needed repair, one was the pedestal below my water heater (a large hole had been cut in it to dry out a leak), and a hole in the living room wall where an electric circuit had been run down the wall. All of the work was done quickly and well. I am very satisfied with the results and will call this company in the future if I need any other drywall work done.

Arrived on time, went over steps he would take to fix the drywall and gave me an estimate. We agreed on price and he started work right away. Both holes were in the ceiling and he took care to tape plastic around his work perimeter and put down drop cloths. He was fast and I was very impressed with the finished work. I highly recommend the Golden brothers for their work.

Chris was great to work with - he was very knowledgeable about drywall and foundation work and I learned a lot about the problems in my house by speaking with him. Although it did take a little while to get him to respond to my initial inquiry, once he did we were able to schedule an appointment quickly and he showed up on time. As we walked through the house, he was helpful in choosing the spots that needed the most help and showed me where I could repair the cracks myself, saving me money. He also gave me constant updates throughout the process. At the beginning we had set a cap on total costs, but in the end when Chris went over the allotted hours he ate the extra cost without complaint.
Description of Work: Completed fifteen hours of repairing various cracks in drywall in all areas of the house.

I had a emergency drywall situation at one of my rent houses. A plumber had damaged the bathroom wall when removing and installing a new tub. I had new tenants moving in on Sunday. I placed the call on Wednesday and he was booked out for a week. He ended up coming Saturday morning (on his day off). He fixed the drywall, baseboards and an additional repair in a dining room wall. The repairs were amazing, you could not tell where the patch was made. He was wonderful, I would gladly refer him to anyone needing drywall work.

Called Chris on Thursday regarding repair of the dry wall hole that was cut in the kitchen ceiling following a leak from master bath above. He stated he was able to come Saturday early afternoon which fit perfectly with my work schedule - difficult for me to be home during the work week. Called before arriving and was right on time. Was very polite and professional. Easily fixed the approximately 1 ft X 1 ft hole, re-textured and then painted all within about 1.5 hours. Looking at the ceiling, you would be unable to tell the leak ever happened. Would definitely use him again in the future.

Made a call to Mr Chris Golden and set up an appointment the same week. Explained the problem and he gave a rough estimate of around 2 hours and between $100 to $150 dollars. Mr Dan Golden arrived on time and took care of the problem and did an excellent professional Job. He was very punctual, courteous and helpful. Would definitely recommend this company and Mr Dan..

One of my crew stepped through the ceiling while he was running some wire in the attic for one of our camera systems. The house had almost 2 feet of blown-in insulation so finding a stud to step on was quite difficult. Anyhow, Chris came on time and took care of the hole in the ceiling like it wasn't there.

Response from Golden Home Improvement
This is an outright lie and this person knows it! NEVER did I say that I did not need her business. I simply informed her that I was extremely backed up, and couldn't come by and look at her house for a few weeks. She then became hostile and resorted to name calling. I then decided to hang up rather than listen to any more of her abuse. How can I prove all this? Glad you asked. I record all of my phone calls ( yes, there's an App for that! ) for this very situation. Texas Is a one-party consent state for recording calls, so it's perfectly legal. All I have to do now is turn the recording over to my lawyer and [member name removed] is now a prime candidate for a Libel lawsuit. And if I can prove that her lies cost me any business, she's liable for that as well! I hope this serves as a reminder to anyone reading this that if they are going to " teach that guy a lesson " by posting a nasty review on Angie's List, you'd better not lie about it. That's the law! Sorry for being so litigious - I take my reputation very seriously and care deeply about providing the best remodeling service for everyone on Angie's List!

We talked briefly on the phone about an 80s bathroom redo (3/30/2012). He asked for a short document with pictures and an explanation of the job so he could do an estimate and get back to me. I provided the document the next day. I didn't hear back from him so I sent him an email about a week later (4/5/2012) asking if he'd seen the document yet (he mentioned when we talked on the phone that he had a busy week ahead). He replied the next day (4/6/2013) apologizing for the delay and saying our job wasn't complicated and should take about 6-8 hours. He asked if that was agreeable. I replied back that day (4/6) asking what an approximate cost would be and never heard back from him.

Response from Golden Home Improvement
I have no recollection of this, although I'd have to search way back in my notes for April 2012 ( today being Oct 1 '13!). I refuse to believe that anyone would take the time to post a bad review without a thorough fact-checking, but I digress. Apparently, people hold on to anger much longer than happiness. We aren't in the habit of turning down paying customers that want to hire us. But sometimes events occur which can impede communication. Sometimes I'll call someone and leave a message without recieving a call back. Why just last week I tried repeatedly to call a potential customer only to hear ,"The voicemail of such-and-such is FULL". I'm not your case worker. If I can't reach you by phone, I'll move on to the next customer rather than sitting around waiting for your call. But you're always welcome to call and ask any questions you might have!

My tenant's foot fell through the ceiling and her kids put a hole in the wall at our rental property. Chris is awesome. He is trustworthy, and he follows through. He fixed everything and repainted the holes. He fixed about 5 holes in the walls and ceiling and he helped fix some small holes in a closet at our primary residence. He's awesome!!!

He did an awesome job. It was very evident that he takes pride in his work and takes the time to do the job right. For example, there was a large gap between my window and the wall that was badly caulked by the previous owner. He removed the caulk and replaced the drywall and now there is not even a gap. It looks so good. I am having him come back out to paint the bathroom next week. He was very clean and organized and his price is great too. I would highly recommend him. He does a lot of other home repairs in addition to drywall.
