I just read some of the bad reviews and that is not what I saw or experienced. Steve was able to pull off a month's worth of work in one week. Our escrow was push back and we had one week to pull off a lot of work. Steve was at my house sometimes at 3 in the morning and worked till 5pm. Even my new neighbors talked about how hard he worked. My house is gorgeous thanks to him. I still have one project that I want to do and I will be calling Steve. Thank you Steve for pulling off a miracle. read more

I was referred to this company by my HVAC contractor to repair a couple of dings that occurred around ceiling vents and attic access during HVAC replacement, which were covered by the contractor. I also decided to have a sagging ceiling seam repaired as well. Steve Nelson, the owner, is a true professional and perfectionist. He speaks in a straightforward manner and provides advice and solutions a layman can understand, and the quote was reasonable. He and his crew shows up on time and their work is beyond reproach. I noticed a minor issue post repair and he responded quickly and immediately provided a solution. I am thoroughly pleased. read more

We decided to go through them after we had the wall cut open for some electrical work down. It was a little on the high side but they came next day so that was great. Thank you mark for a job well done. We had a little hiccup but both mark and Steve did a great job of fixing the issue. Mark was extremely friendly and overall great guy. If you need work done def recommend them. Quick, friendly, and good service. read more

BEWARE, this company took my money and left me with an unfinished job. I hired The Wall Doctor to build a bump out for an electric fireplace that included wood framing, drywall prepped for painting, and pulling forward electrical outlets for wall mount TV and fireplace. On day 1, Steve arrived with his drywall guy, but had to leave for a family issue. I didn't mind that because I'd seen other reviews where he did that and his drywall guy was well equipped to do the job. The framing and drywall was done per my request and they seemed very knowledgeable about those aspects of the job. They touched up areas per my requests and although they left a mess the framing and drywall looked really good. The issues started after I made the 2nd progress payment. Since doing the electrical, installing the fireplace and re-installing the TV were the only tasks left I felt comfortable with paying Steve 85% of the job. BAD DECISION! Unfortunately after receiving the money he never returned to finish the work. I reached out to him via email and phone multiple times and after saying he'd get back to me then making up a handful of excuses, he eventually left me on 'read' and ghosted me. I had to hire (and pay) someone else to finish the job and help me clear up the mess they left. Very unprofessional. I went with this company because they were the lowest cost and Steve seemed like a good guy, family man. It was an awful mistake. I wish I had listened to the other bad reviews because the behavior has not improved. I do NOT recommend this company. I only gave them 2 stars because the drywall and framing guy did a really good job. read more

Total scammer! He was hired to redo our bathroom, he hires people off Craigslist to do the work & then not pay them, then finds another person for his next job does the same to them . He at times doesn't answer & doesn't stick to a schedule. He also asks for 40% up front which is illegal. Don't trust Steve, he'll threaten to put a lien on your house if you fire him. He refused to pay the tile guy after all the hard work & time he put in.. That goes against all morales & values so we chose to not do business with him & fired him. read more

Highly Recommended! Set an appointment. Set the price. Arrived on time. Mark rocked the job (great guy) easy peasy. No weird bologna, no weird probs. No half-assery! I was able to work at home, he worked and handled the reno, cleaned up, I paid em and that was that. Very happy with the end results. Will have back for more work in a diff room of the house. Thanks again. read more

I had a couple large holes in my dry wall that needed repair and fast. Was tired of looking at this, obviously. I started to request quotes from yelp and to my surprise I was getting a lot of very high bids, except one. This is where Steve came into the picture and I called him early in the morning hours and Steve picked up right away. Off the bat Steve provided excellent customer service and very good high energy. He asked I send him pictures and i did, he beat everyone else's quote and educated me. I asked Steve how soon could he be at my house and he was able to be at my house the next morning and on time! He said the job would take about 40 mins and it literally was almost on the dot of 40 mins. He did excellent dry wall work and the holes are gone and it looks great! In the after picture, ignore the lines as this needs to dry up before the lines fade (I know this thanks to Steve). read more

The good reviews are definitely justified. Steven came out and fixed a bunch of drywall in my house and textured the wall so you wouldn't notice it. I had some pretty bad spots where I removed the backsplash and a vanity. After he was done you didn't even notice that the wall was damaged (see pictures). I also removed a door jamb and he made it a regular opening, and it came out fantastic. I contacted him on pretty short notice and he came out the next day, which was great. Communication was also great, and he was very responsive. He was on time. The price was in the middle of the road compared to others. The Wall Doctor will be my go to guy for drywall repairs from now on. If you want quality for a reasonable price, look no further. read more

Steve is not only one of the most knowledgable craftsman we've encountered in our 30 years of owning our home in Murrieta but he's also one of the nicest. He and his team did a great job restoring our home after water damage, the drywall and paint were a perfect match. He's super responsive and we highly recommend, thanks Steve! read more

Steve is the man! I had a numerous amount of holes in my living room from some electrical work I had done last year. It took me a while to start searching for a person to do my drywall because, well, I'm picky. I wanted to make sure I got a good, reputable person that knew what he was doing and most importantly, I didn't want mediocre results. Being that all the work done is in my main entertainment area, I wanted to make sure the person doing the work was a perfectionist, and Steve was all of that and then some! On the day of service, I was expecting multiple hours of work, but I was pleasantly surprised that Steve knocked out the 15+ holes, texture, and cleanup in less than 2 hours! And the best part about it is there wasn't a single speck of dust anywhere in the house after the work was done. If professional, perfection, and efficient is what you're looking for then I highly recommend The Wall Doctor. Thank you! read more

I am extremely satisfied with the work Steve did. I reached out to him on yelp Saturday. He responded within minutes and provided a quote that was very reasonable based on the photos I sent. He arrived promptly on Sunday and had the repair done in less than an hour. His workmanship is first class and you cannot even see the previous damage. I'll also note, he was extremely clean. For a drywall repair I was expecting dust all over the house. I don't see any dust or debris. He did an outstanding and clean job. read more

Thank you Steve for coming out so quickly! I originally contacted Steve when I wanted to open up my laundry room, but I couldn't stomach paying the cost for demo and repair, so I decided to do the demo myself and have Steve repair the drywall. Note: His rate is very fair and competitive, I'm just cheap lol! I was a little hesitant due to some yelp reviews, but from first contact, he was very responsive and friendly, so I decided to go with Drywall Doctor. The day of my appointment, Steve and his guy showed up on time and got to work quickly. Before the repair started, my floor and valuables we carefully covered. A lot of time was spent on prepping the area, which I really appreciated. The whole process took 2.5 hours (as quoted) and everything was cleanup nicely. Overall I'm extremely pleased with the results. He blended my wall texture perfectly and you can't even tell where he made the repair(besides the fact I painted the repaired area with semi gloss paint vs high gloss) I will definitely be using Drywall Doctor for future dry wall repairs. Thanks Steve! read more

We had an electrician drill excessive holes in are walls and ceiling to install a ceiling fan. After the install he said it would be Monday before he could get his patch crew out to preform the repairs. With two small children we didn't feel comfortable waiting that long. So we called the wall doctor his response was fast and his price was unmatched and he could come out first thing in the morning. He got to our house on time worked fast and clean. We couldn't be more happy. Thanks again Steve. read more

We had two issues, a ceiling leak which left us with two giant holes in the ceiling and an area which used to house a big box television, which I wanted to close up and turn into a wall for large art piece. After contacting Steve and sending a few measurements and photos he was able to send me a fair quote and schedule the repairs. The job site was kept clean from beginning to end and the work was completed in a timely manner. We had heard nightmare stories about matching wall and ceiling texture. In our opinion the match was as good as it gets. We were very happy with the job and will use him again if the need arises. Would highly recommend. read more

I recently gutted a closet that was under our stairs to allow for more storage that would wrap under the entire stairway. My intent was to wire some can lights, get the drywall up, texture and paint myself. Well, I kept on pushing the project off because I was just too busy. So I called a few electricians to wire up the lights but their quotes were a bit ridiculous even with it being entirely open to run the wire and there were two existing switches to pull electricity from. So I just decided to use the lights that are battery operated and stick to the wall and operated by touch. I then called The Wall Doctor to put the walls up. Steve came out, looked at the project and gave me a fair quote. I accepted on the spot and scheduled my project a few days later. Where this gets even better is when they showed up the morning to get started, they asked if I had any intention of running lights in the closet. I said I did have that intent but my schedule and the pricing of the electricians really wasn't going to work. Lo and behold, it turns out Steve was an electrician for 12 years! He gave me a quote less than half of the companies who only did electrical work! So even though the project price did increase a bit, it was definitely worth it! The Wall Doctor did a great job, was friendly, and cleaned up after their work was finished each day. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Wall Doctor to family and friends. read more

I didn't realize that he really didn't know what he was doing until it was too late.

He and his son fixed it up and now it matches the rest of my home. He was prompt and professional and his price was quite reasonable, considering the challenge.

Steve was very responsive. We had removed about 25 feet of wall, resulting in the need for a great patch job. We did not have the time to finish tape and match the texture. Steve and his son finished the taping and textured. We live in a track home so the texture was different on the ceiling and walls. He did an excellent job blending the texture. I had a wall that would not square up new to old work. Steve fixed it. They are Very punctual which is important. Great quality. I will use them again. read more

Steve's services is 5-stars! He was great!!! I contacted him on Yelp for a quote about patching up 2 holes in my ceiling and he replied within an hour! Compared to 4 other companies, the price he gave me was the lowest! I had to go with him! He was even available to come by the next day early morning (7:30am). He even offered a 6-6:30am appt. Wow that shows early dedication for his craft! He arrived on time to our house and he and his son were super friendly and professional. They got right to work, were careful, tidy, and were finished with the patching and texture within an hour! Our ceiling is back to normal again! Yay! The 5-star reviews speak for themselves. I highly recommend Steve and his family business team! I appreciate him even doing some extra work around our house fixing up a corner crack/dent in our stairway and some minor cracks on our foyer wall for no extra charge. How nice of him to do that! Thanks, Steve!!! Can't wait to contact you again for future services aka re-painting our rooms. :) Contact The Wall Doctor for their services, you won't regret it! read more
