William single-handedly transformed the interior of our 100-year-old home while preserving all of its historical character. He is exceptional: a true craftsman with incredible work ethic and attention to detail, and a kind, respectful person to have working in your home. A few months ago, the plaster ceiling in our 1920s Tudor decided to give way in the middle of the night. We'd been debating whether or not to just live with our deeply textured and cracking plaster walls, but since we needed to replace the ceiling anyway we decided to skim coat the entire room (and then the rest of the house, which had been skim coated poorly in the past and was looking pretty haggard). We love the character of our home, and chose William because we could tell he was going to preserve it. He diligently worked over months to skim coat every wall and ceiling, preserving all of the special historic details (rounded returns at the windows, sharp edges around the woodwork, beautiful smooth arches in a wall cutaway) while giving us glass-smooth walls -- the end result is stunning. We've been interviewing painters recently and every single one of them has asked who did the work and commented on how expertly it was done. Out of all the home improvements we could have done, this one is by far the most impactful and brings us joy every day. Thank you so much, William. read more

WDA Quality Drywall - Drywall Installation & Repair Near Me

William is such a rare-find!!! I can't tell you how happy I am with his work and I am EXTREMELY PICKY as a design professional and William took his craftsmanship so serious I can't praise his work enough. Originally, I had a drywall guy recommended by a contractor, he has all the professional set up but halfway upon him finishing the first window, I realized the frame was not even on the windows and it's really obvious with black windows against light color wall. I don't know if it's the language issue or what(I don't speak Spanish and his English was very limited), I had someone translate for me and basically he kept saying it's because the frame wasn't even which we all know nowhere is perfect. But the fact he wouldn't spend any little time to shim anything but want to just close walls up as soon as possible, I just can't have that and cut that contractor lose right away. I talked to so many drywall guys and some of them either straight up told me they are just going to close up the wall too(cuz they want easy projects) or some people would be like oh you are looking for perfection and that's gonna cost you $$$$$. I was gaslighted to the point that I'm really wondering am I really a perfectionist or what I'm looking for is unreasonable? Until I talked to William, which he looked at everything and told me that's not a problem. I was a little skeptical I'm not gonna lie, how is that this young, soft spoken guy can do the impossible that everybody's talking about? OMG the work was better than I ever expected! I attached a photo which by itself makes no sense, this is the wall that was not plumb caused by the shatty work from previous owner's contractor on this new addition of the house. Originally I was going to put some acoustical wood panel that basically cover the wall up but make it look nice which is going to cost a lot and requires more work for us. But after William worked really hard on it, the wall where the door is now STRAIGHT!!! Obviously you can't tell from a photo which is why I took this picture of the corner that's even. We never thought we'll see this wall straight the way it is now after EVERYBODY told us it's not gonna happen. He's very professional, quiet, clean, meticulous with the work which made my life just a lot easier during this period of time that my house is a mess with all the projects going on and I work from home 100% of time which is not easy. He's my silver lining of losing my first drywall guy, PERIOD! We already talked about more projects when I re-do my kitchen and basically cleanup all the interior wall mess we inherited from the previous owner lol TOTALLY RECOMMEND HIM :) read more

WDA Quality Drywall - The wall is now clean AND STRAIGHT - Drywall Installation & Repair Near Me

William is a family man, so he understands the importance of home. You can tell with his attention to detail. I interviewed a lot of drywall companies but what made me gravitate to William was his passion for what He does and how pleasant he is to be around. Even my two year old son would ask for him when He was not on the job sight. Williams prices were fair and His communication is excellent. Our job was extremely tedious due to our deadlines, very detailed design and having multiple disciplines working at the same time. But even still William didn't get overwhelmed or concerned. He is the reason our home is so beautiful and I would recommend him to anyone looking to hire and get quality work. The finished product is stunning. We still have a few projects left and He has been patience a gracious to come back and finish them. That quality of dependability is hard to find is people these days. read more

William did a stunning job on our 1930s Spanish remodel. The original walls were lath and plaster, and we loved the original texture. We asked him to match this with drywall, and it came out beautifully. He was very courteous and pleasant to work with, and he came back himself several times to make sure the job was perfect and we were happy. He delivered on-budget, and incredibly close to on-time (which is saying a lot compared to almost every other trade we worked with on this project). The photos start after he had already gotten most of the sheets up, through the finished texture, and the whole job took just about 3 weeks. So many curves, and tricky corners, and it all came together better than I could've hoped! I was very impressed with the quality, care, talent, attention to detail, and communication I experienced working with William, and would definitely recommend him to friends. PS to William - a thousand apologies for taking SO long to write this review! Your work is so beautiful and I just wanted to wait for everyone else to finish their parts so I could show how it all ended up. We are very happy! read more

I just purchased my first home, and the eyesore was a popcorn ceiling and semi-gloss walls. I researched all my options and the conclusion was to remove the popcorn ceiling and possibly skim coat the walls. I called several contractors and they all flaked or never responded and after vetting WDA Quality Drywall, I was impressed with his work and reviews. William the owner gave me a phone Guesstimate, but mind you that was just for popcorn removal. We set up a date and time to do a walkthrough and get 2 estimates, popcorn only or adding skim coat. When I say William will work with you, he will work with you. I was impressed with both estimates and figured hey it's my new place, its empty, let's go for everything. We set up a 3 payment agreement, down payment, mid payment, and final payment on completion. We spoke about the business and he is in high demand, so if he doesn't get back to you, just call again, William is worth the wait and the work. I happy with the results, and I know you will be too. William loves to focus on quality and attention to detail. He used a light for the final inspection as others have also mentioned, to examine the drywall. Just know an over-the-phone guestimate is just that a guestimate, so make sure if you're ready to pay get an in-person estimate and William is safe for wearing a mask for covid safety. Thank you William! read more

William did an amazing job with drywalling my garage. I contacted William based on the amazing reviews I read on Yelp. You guys weren't lying about him being very patient, attentive, meticulous and just an honest person. The work was done in the timeframe we discussed and he even helped me out with a small project inside my home. He even offered to take any leftover materials for a full reimbursement! I will definitely recommend William for anyone wanting premium drywall services and will definitely use his services in the future. It's refreshing to find someone that says they can do something and follow through on those promises. Breath of fresh air. Thanks William! -Extremely Happy Customer read more

I am currently renovating my house and had it completely gutted down to the studs. My house was built in1962 and had plaster walls which were a huge pain to remove. The popcorn ceiling was left intact. We hired another contractor to attempt to scrape the popcorn off but it ended up making it worst and looked like cottage cheese. There was no way to scrape it smooth because of the plaster. I knew when I got to the point of hiring a drywall contractor, this was not going to be an easy job. To make it just a little bit more challenging, I wanted smooth walls and ceilings (level 5 finish). I spoke to and got estimates from several drywall contractors. When I called William, I was almost certain he wouldn't service my area since it was so far from the Valley. However, he told me in person he always makes an effort to go where the job are no matter how far. What initially attracted me to William was a lot of his reviews point out his attention to detail. This is very important to me especially since the final finish on drywall will be visible to everyone. After talking to William, I learned that he loves to focus on quality, will use a light for final inspection to examine the drywall, and loves to skim coat. These were all of the traits I was looking for. He gave me a very competitive bid and the rest is history. My wife and I are extremely happy with the final results. The walls and ceilings are smooth and looks perfect. One of the biggest transformations are the ceilings. It went from this rough cottage cheese to perfectly smooth. William had to apply 3 coats of mud. Whether you have a large or small drywall job, give William a call. I guarantee you won't be disappointed. I already told him I plan on hiring him again in 2 years time when I get to my bathroom projects. read more

William is the absolute best. We had situation where a company installing insulation in my attic entirely botched the situation with unqualified installers and my ceilings in almost every room sagged or in some places seams opened up all the way across the room. I was in a panic. Our painter referred William and he worked over a holiday season to accommodate our vacation time. Often I'd see him on "stilts" doing what I thought was backbreaking work to level our ceilings and the result was excellent. He was reasonable, flexible and a hard worker. I would recommend him to anyone. read more

William was very professional from our 1st phone call to the final job being ready for paint. I hired WDA Drywall to install all drywall for my bathroom remodel project. To my surprise William recommended using 5/8 drywall opposed to 1/2 " drywall, I understand the difference in thickness and it makes the integrity of drywall better. The price of the job was reasonable and the quality of the work was exceptional. My occupation is a home inspector and i used to be a contractor so i understand what quality drywall looks like. I highly recommend hiring WDA Drywall if you want quality work and a smooth finish. John read more

Beware will quote you based on your looks and location, wanted almost 1,400 to skim coat two walls on a 2x2 bathroom Oh here we go the good old you sure that's the correct bathroom? To make it seem like he's the victim. You contractors are all the same money hungry and ready to take advantage of anyone in need. Let me guess pay the 1,400 and then have issues with your work and then what? Where does the bond and insured actually matter? There a whole process you have to do to even get anything situated with your insurance. You over priced a job and I will post pictures of other estimates with bonded insured company as soon as we get to it. So please be ready to respond read more

William did an outstanding job! He was very conscientious, and incredibly clean. He does phenomenal work. My contractor said the final product was outstanding and was extremely impressed by the quality. William responds to texts and calls immediately. Can't recommend him enough. He has our number and we would be glad to be a referral for him anytime! read more

William did an amazing job correcting a number of issues we were left with after dealing with a nightmare contractor. We had water intrusion on multiple walls as well as cracks throughout our home. William responded to our call very promptly and was extremely thorough in his work. William even went above and beyond by referring us to an associate of his who was able to take care of separate issues we were having in our garage. His referral saved us a good deal of money. I cannot recommend this company more highly! read more

Review well over due. I contacted William several months ago, due to water damage in a small hallway. After two months of looking at studs, I found WDA on Yelp. Because of the great reviews, I decided to give him a call. Very pleasant young man to work with and very good at his trade. A date was scheduled, and a couple days later, just like new. I highly recommend this company. Pleasant, responsive, hard working and did a great job. Thanks William, and sorry for the late review. Chet read more

William came yesterday to replace drywall in my ceiling following a water leak. He did a great job at a reasonable price. He also left no mess whatsoever, which I really appreciated. He was extremely reliable and courteous, showing up when he said he would and treating me very respectfully while he was here (e.g., my doctor called and he told me to take the call and answer his question when I was done). I will use him for all of my drywall needs (though I hope not to have many ;-) read more

William is an amazing contractor. I wish I met him sooner! He's diligent, thoughtful and detail-oriented. I had an emergency project today, and he moved his schedule around to finish a bathroom that is getting tiled tomorrow. The pictures speak for itself. Looking forward to having him finish a few more rooms that need his skills read more

William is wise beyond his years, an excellent businessman, and an amazing drywall finisher. He picked up our call immediately, while driving to another job location, and as promised arrived later that day for an estimate. He suggested two ways to rid our house of textured ceilings. William has different specialized crews for each phase of the job (in our case drywall and smooth plaster over our textured plaster ceilings). One crew specifically hung the drywall, a second did taping and skim coat, and William himself did the final coats and sanding. He takes pride in his work, and for good reason! We will absolutely have Willam redo our mix and match textured walls and ceilings at our condo. WDA Drywall is a small business that I am very confident in recommending to others! read more

William did an amazing job on our new construction drywall and was an absolute pleasure to work with! We have dealt with a lot of construction trades throughout the build process, and William was by far one of our favorites to work with. He is a hardworker, friendly, passionate about his craft and committed to delivering quality work. He also had excellent communication throughout the entire process. I cannot recommend William enough! read more

My wife and I were in need of some drywall finishing work for our old 1970s house. I reached out to William, and he was quick to respond and came out right away to give a quote. His prices are very competitive, and he's very easy to work with. He was willing to work with our schedules to find the best time to come out, and get the job done. The end result was amazing! We were incredibly happy with the quality of William's work. We've had him come out twice now to tape and mud ceiling drywall, and skim coat several rooms. We were looking for a smooth texture, and it came out perfect. We will definitely be using William again for future drywall work! read more

After days of searching for quality drywall service, we went with William. He did great work within our schedule and at a very fair price.

I called William to correct a situation in my kitchen remodel where a wall had been removed and the contractor, who is decent, did not quite get the walls and ceiling floated out perfectly in my 1949 button board and plaster house. I did not want to leave the walls "just ok" and I did not want to hurt the contractor's feelings. I found William on Yelp. All I can say is that William is an ARTIST. His estimate was very reasonable and he spent a few hours floating out the walls and ceiling and fixing a hairline crack that had developed in the plaster. He came by the following week to sand the mud. I am beyond impressed with his work and wish I had hired him to do all the patching in my remodel. In the current era of "do your best and a caulk the rest" it is good to know that there are still a few craftsmen around who take pride in their work. read more

After contacting several drywall companies I contacted William from WDA. He inspected the property the same day and provided a very fair quote and recommended a great drywall business to purchase the material from in the SF Valley. WDA started a few days later. WDA worked efficiently to hang 1,200 sq.ft of drywall precisely with accurate cutting as the house has several high ceilings and non traditional angles. William's attention to detail was fantastic as he took pride in every step of the process. This is the only company I will work with moving forward. read more

As a contractor I highly recommend William and his team for any drywall job where quality is important. There are plenty of people out there that can do an "Ok" job at drywall. In fact, if you have a small minor repair, chances are you're better off with a handyman. However, if you're doing any sort of remodel or new construction, and the drywall is important to you, then give these guys a call. They absolutely know what they're doing. I think they're reliable craftsmen that know their trade at a fair price. read more

Hired William based off of his high reviews on Yelp to get my condo ready for painting. He smoothed out the ceiling and repaired any and all plaster cracks.
