What Customers Are Saying
Jared Roberts2025-05-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Damien & DJ were fantastic, a lot of ceiling to cover in just a few days but we were so impressed with Damien's punctuality, clear & open communication, and recommendations. It's been a few months and still feels like a new house. 100% recommend them Zoe Myers2025-04-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Damien was super communicative throughout the process and overall great quality work, completed quickly! Jenny Cavanaugh2025-02-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have worked with a lot of contractors. A lot. Over time, the many disappointing experiences led my husband and I to become avid DIYers. But there are some projects that you really need to leave to the pros and drywall/finishing is one of those things. Damien at Flow Drywall was easily one of the most competent, fair, communicative, friendly and skilled contractors I've ever worked with. We needed a quote on repairing drywall tape/seams that had failed (a previous contractor's work). Damien was very quick to respond and took the time to come out to inspect the project in person for a more accurate quote. We received our quote less than 24 hours later and got on the schedule within a week of initial contact. Damien was able to work around our schedule constraints and went above and beyond on the scope of the project. We needed to have the old tape removed, new tape and mud applied and the ceiling repainted. Damien did an incredible job protecting all of the surfaces and the repairs were done perfectly. Damien even spent additional time, above and beyond the scope of the work, to "get the job done right." This is beyond rare. You don't find many contractors who check all of the boxes these days. Flow Drywall was priced fairly, did incredible work and was a pleasure to work with. I highly, HIGHLY recommend reaching out to Damien for any of your drywall needs. You would be hard pressed to find anyone who could do a better job. I'll be recommending Flow Drywall to all of my friends. Nicole Chernyakhovsky2025-02-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I worked with Damien back in early July for a bathroom ceiling project. My husband and I were expecting our first child and were desperately trying to complete projects before our due date. When we purchased our home from some flippers, they neglected to use the correct paint on the bathroom ceiling, and so the result after 1 year in the home was peeling and cracking paint. We'd repainted the ceiling twice with special paint that was supposed to seal the cracks, but since the first coat was done improperly, the result was cracking every-time. Damien was able to make it out within a few days of our initial phone call. He quoted the repair (stripping down to the drywall, repainting and texturing. He was super clean, extremely prompt, polite and even brought in packages for me that were too heavy to carry. He was able to match the wall texture nearly perfectly. More importantly, it's been months and we haven't seen hide not hair of these pesky paint cracks. I couldn't recommend this company (and Damien) more highly. I will never go elsewhere for my drywall needs. Thank you Flow Drywall! denigma D2025-01-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From my initial contact to completion of the job, I'm happy I chose Flow Drywall for my repair. Quoting process was quick and smooth. Payment process was very convenient and they were able to get me scheduled quickly. They were respectful of my home, cleaned up nicely and the repair looks really good. I will definitely use them again, if needed. Thank you! Tricia Hua2025-01-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wonderful and satisfying experience with Flow Drywall. We hired them to remove our popcorn ceiling and they did a solid and professional job. Damien was the best with prompt and clear communication from the start. I appreciate how Flow Drywall included a thorough explanation of the removal process and costs; we knew what to expect throughout and felt confident hiring them. DJ did great work. Highly recommend. Thanks, Damien! Courtney Bargas2024-12-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Damien was very quick to come out to provide a quote for the job- and he beat his competitors on price. That did not impact the quality of the work whatever- DJ worked incredibly hard all week and was willing to stay over the weekend to finish the job by Monday, and before Christmas. I’m very thankful that he was willing to put in so much time to get it done. Definitely recommend, and would hire again! Max Barnett2024-12-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Incredibly fast, professional, thorough, flexible and easy to work with! I would leave 6 stars if I could :) Rebecca Freeman2024-12-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great job on my ceiling. Finished several days early! Pete Lucke2024-11-13Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Damien and DJ from Flow Drywall were a dynamic duo. Damien was quick to schedule a date to quote the project and to schedule the job. DJ is a tremendously hard worker with attention to my needs with having a dust free job. His work with finishing the drywall was excellent. I would definitely hire Flow Drywall with any future projects and highly recommend their services.
