Get matched with top drywall repair pros in Glendale, AZ

"Never judge a book by its cover WRONG Lesson learned once more! I reached out to HomeAdvisor for drywall/handyman help. Received a call within minutes from Chris and set an appointment for later that afternoon. Wonderful! We walked through my (rental) home and discussed what was needed. I got a verbal that it would be $1,200, easy. I text the to-do list to him, clearly indicating the work we discussed. Done, deal. I will buy the toilets and most material! The work was done, plus more! Great, right! Well, you think that would be a good thing until being presented with a $3,300 bill (now in writing) on the last day! Chris decided to change it from a flat rate to Per Hour rate! (Ha! I never would hire a handyman at Per Hour rate!) This guy also did the following to the home, when we NEVER discussed or agreed to do any of this. (Keep reading because the nasty stuff is at the end!) - He changed out 34 lightbulbs, (keep in mind, the house was already well- lit, he just thought they were old and tried charging me $10 per bulb!) - He changed out the electrical outlets to include the USB ports, (again, NEVER discussed this!) - He changed out a ceiling fan, (that he got from his garage. He installed it than charged for the product and labor! Never told or asked him to do this!) - He threw out a shower rod and bought 2 brand new ones, (we NEVER discussed this!) - I had fixed 2 cabinet doors from the kitchen and bathroom, keep in mind, it is merely 4 screws to put them back on, which I was going to do, but Chris decides to screw them back on himself and attempt to charge me $35 each! Seventy bucks for 4 screws! Extortion! - He saw lots of little holes in the walls (from nails/screws). He took it up himself to fill them in. Well, that was nice of him, because we never discussed doing this, however, not only did he fill in the tiny holes, he sprayed over all of them with that plaster texture stuff. Now, the whole house looks like patch work and needs to be repainted! There is so much more, but I honestly do not want to waste more time writing it. He just created more work and tried to charge for work we NEVER DISCUSSED! .....And it would have been left at that, if not for the cherry on top which happened next. Speaking of waste, because I made him reduce his bill, he decided to take the biggest, smelliest diarrhea crap in BOTH of the new toilets! Leaving the house smelling like the inside of his rotting intestines! Leaving his feces-filled toilet paper OUTSIDE of the toilet for me to pick up! Still, after 15 flushes, it was not going down and I prayed for it to not over flow! I guess that is what I get for leaving him a key and not hovering over him while he was there! His defense was that it was his son. Well, MoFo, YOU had a key to the house, YOU were the last one in the home! There is no way YOU would have been able to leave that home without doing a final walk thru....and gagging on the putrid smell that was once festering inside you, to which you decide to release in MY HOME, polluting the air I breath! DIGUSTING! FIVE STAR REVIEW and 20 YEARS IN SERVICE ! Not only is that definitely not what I experienced, here is 2 minutes of research: - Chris Madeo is not a licensed contractor, (even though he will tell you to your face that he is before the job, then after the job, he is not licensed). - Charles Madeo is a licensed contractor running his business Cam Wal with HomeAdvisor. Chris operates under this. You are Welcome!"

"Jeff is detail oriented, conscientious, honest and timely with his work. A great experience. He even fixed my 1927 Western Holly stove! Canâ t say enough good things about Jeffâ s work!"

"He was very personable and prepared. He had solutions to the issues that came up right away. Work was done efficiently and properly. I will definitely call him again!"

"I expected a price adjustment due to the drastic change is scope of work and was surprised to be billed $900...well over 50% of the original agreed upon amount. I would have rather paid the original amount and had the original work done to get the guarantee of fix, but was told the caulking was all that was needed to fix the problem. I agreed to pay $600 to make the whole thing go away, which is far, far too much money for the work that was done. Now, It's been 3 weeks since the work has been done. Got a good rainstorm today...and the windows still leak. No guarantee, paid a ton of money, and right back where I started originally. I guess I learned a very, very expensive lesson."

"Joaquin and his wife did a wonderful job repairing drywall in the ceiling which had been damaged by water leak, and we couldn't be happier with how thorough and high quality their work was. During the process, he even found out the source of the leak and quickly fixed the plumbing issue for us. They also helped us replace our old faucet which we had been trying but failed to fix by ourselves. Jaquin was so talented, easy to work with, and he was very honest and fair, always putting his client first. We will definitely hire him again for our future projects!"

"Very professional, the job was done correctly and on time. The job was cleaned up at the end. Highly recommended. "

" TOTAL BAIT AND SWITCH. The company came to my home and gave me a quote after walking the entire area and going over the work. My quote/estimate received was for $2200 for all work discussed and went over during the walk through. There was one small opening that needed to be made in the ceiling to the attic for an attic lift which they did not include in the original quote and he told me this specifically. Later the owner sent me a message that it was an additional $200. To do the opening in the ceiling and I agreed. Then I spoke to the owner numerous times about additional drywall touchups that they did not include on the original estimate I was told, which he said were going to be an additional $60.00. Because it was a nominal amount I just agreed to get the job completed. After the entire job was completed the owner sent me an invoice for payment that was over $3,600, $1150 higher than the original estimate and the agreed upon additional items. "

"Did a good job, and had great customer service."
