Jim had a difficult job with our house. Complete rewiring in a 1920s craftsman meant 4" holes in every room, and wall and ceiling holes near the electrical panel. In addition to that, we also had some moisture damage on our master bedroom wall, with two large windows. Jim patched all the holes, and completely fixed an entire bedroom wall, adding support that ensured the wall wouldn't sag in the future. He matched 100-year-old texture on plaster areas and newer drywall expertly. All I had to do as the homeowner was paint. He's very easy to deal with, 100% transparent in terms of the amount of work that would need to be done, and he finished ahead of schedule. I would definitely recommend him for any plaster repair in older homes. read more

Jim with Professional Drywall Services was an absolute joy to work with. Great communication, timely, fantastic job well done. Needed a section of 1960 plaster wall repaired after substantial plumbing work had been completed. Jim stopped by, assessed the project, coordinated his work with the ongoing plumbing restoration, and completed the job just a few days later. His cost was quite reasonable. Will readily call Jim for any additional plaster work in the future. read more

Jim came out to fix quite a bit of drywall damage,age when I put in new stair railings. I highly recommend Jim McCue. He was on time for the estimate, arrived for repair on time. Did a great job. I was surprised at how many layers needed to be applied. It looked perfect and just needed to dry to be repainted. I highly recommend Jim! read more

Jimmy is unbelievably kind. He came to my home within hours of calling him. He is honest, was able to fix what I needed and went "above and beyond." I recommend him heartily for any drywall needs. read more

We had to open a large area in our family room ceiling due to water invasion from upstairs. I contacted Jim to do the repair/texturing after all had dried out ("Flood Busters" in Santee also did an excellent job, pleasure to work with) Jim was prompt, professional, and was able to fit our job in his tight schedule, and did a repair job with skill, excellent craftsmanship and attention to detail that is often hard to find in the trades these days. We would highly recommend him and would not hesitate to hire his services again. read more

I needed some drywall work done within the week and got several quotes. Jim was very responsive and made time to come for an estimate on the job quickly. He was able to provide a timeline of completion and costs at the end of his visit which made it very helpful. I liked that he explains what he will be doing on the job, to set the proper expectations. This helped made me feel more at ease knowing I'm working with a pro that I can trust to get the job done right the first time. The Job: We needed to retexture the bathroom walls and two closet ceilings. I was so impressed by how quickly he got things done within the 4hrs on his first day! He neatly prepped all areas to protected my walls and floors from debris, which I appreciated very much. He had smooth out the old, uneven, orange peel bumps on the existing wall, remove the old popcorn ceiling in the closets and patiently added several layers mudd to smooth out the surface. He also helped patch up some old drywall that was from the previous plumber. The walls looks brand new! I didn't get a chance to take a picture of it after completion as it got painted soon after. You can see that the texture is more even, using the skip trowel technique. It looks great! I can see that Jim takes pride in his work as he was very meticulous and really takes his time. He's friendly, professional, and most importantly, he knows his stuff. I've already recommended him to a few others I know that we will need some help. You won't be disappointed! read more

Many contractors did not want this job as it was to patch relatively small areas from a water leak. Jim was amazing. Fast, reliable, clean and great work. We had several small patches to be fixed in our ceiling and walls. Jim responded to my request quickly and kept me informed. The end result was so much better than I expected. It's always tricky to match spackle/bumpy finish. He did so much better than I could have expected. I cannot recommend him enough. read more

I cannot tell you how impressed I am with Jim and his Drywall repair services. We live in an older home, so there have been quite a few things that we've had to hire contractors for. Of all the projects we've done, Jim is the top 1 or 2 that we've ever worked with. Despite having an extremely busy schedule, he came out within 24 hours to provide a quote - which was very competitive - and then provided his services within a few days thereafter. The project looked minor to me, but it ended up really being a headache because we had some bubbling and improper repair that was done in the past. Jim fixed all of that, in addition to the original request and did not charge us extra. His work is very high quality. The only thing I hate is that I didn't call him months or even years prior to address problems we were having. His work really elevated our living situation. We couldn't be more pleased with the experience we had with him! read more

Jim was one of only a few contractors that actually came out to look at the job...on a Saturday at that! Many just wanted to give a quote from pictures. His knowledge in the trade was evident in his explanation of the repair process, and the final product was impressive. (Please note the pictures.) He earned five stars for workmanship; communication; and cleanliness. read more

Great service, great communication and great work. I am very pleased overall and definitely will call on Jim again for my next drywall project. read more

I could not have had a better experience with Jim. It's not an overstatement to say he is an asset for our community. Jim came out same day and offered sage advice on two walls needing large areas of dry wall repair. He does the work himself and is very savvy. Excellent rate. Seamless communication throughout. Think of him as a friendly, super-skilled neighbor with focused expertise in dry wall repair. read more

His attention to detail is excellent. We were really impressed with his work and still can't believe how well he was able to blend the new drywall with the old drywall. We definitely feel like we got the quality we paid for! read more

Although the need for drywall services is not a constant one, I cannot recommend Jim enough. He was in our home for a few days and it was a delight. His work is exceptional.

Jim is pleasant, reliable, a fantastic communicator about his expectations for the job, his schedule and his price was very reasonable. read more

Jim was amazing. We had big project on a tight schedule, and Jim was flexible and able to fit us in.

I called Jim when I felt like I was being taken for a ride by another contractor who wanted me to use his drywall people. Jim was referred to me by someone I found on Yelp! who wasn't able to do my job. Jim is honest and saved me thousands of dollars. He even painted my ceiling himself which he normally refers out. He is easy going and trustworthy. Tip - always get a second opinion before hiring a contractor. read more

With Covid being a part of our daily lives, we decided to circle the wagons and have our son move back home with us and live under one roof. Problem was we were short a bedroom. So we converted our upstairs family room/loft into a bedroom. We were able to frame the support but we did not know how to drywall and texture the wall. We were referred to Jim and Professional Drywall Service and we checked his Yelp reviews. They were outstanding so we gave him a call for a quote. He came out, looked at the job and gave us a free quote. We settled on using Jim and we were not disappointed. Jim and his co-worker Joe came out two days later to start the work on the wall. They set up plastic on all the walkways, put a heavy cloth tarp adjective to the wall and got to work. It was a complex job in that we had to deal with a vaulted ceiling. He sanded down the edges of the existing walls so that when he textured the new wall, he could blend it in so that it looked seamless. The job was done on time and on budget. The wall came out better than we ever imagined. It's as if the wall was part of the original build of the house. We could not be any happier with the results. I would highly recommend Jim to anybody and I've saved his contact in my phone for future reference. read more

Water heater leaked and made a mess. Restoration company cut drywall out and dried out the area. Then they gave me a rather pricey estimate for installing new drywall and painting. So I called Jim who estimated my drywall repair work from a picture I took with my phone. He came next day and installed new drywall and sprayed texture, which then he had to let dry. The very next day (a Sunday, I should mention), he came back and painted the wall. He was going to come a day later but he was sensitive to what I told him on the first phone call, that I was paying a daily fee for renting a temporary water heater until the repair was completed and ready for installing the permanent water heater. And Jim did all this for less than half (yes, I'm not exaggerating) what the restoration company was going to charge me for drywall and painting. read more

I recently had to have a bee hive removed from my roof and the pest control company had to punch a hole on ceiling to get the hive out. I contacted Jim and scheduled an appointment to have it repaired. The location of the hole was awkward and proved to be a challenge. But Jim proved himself more than capable and the finished product came out great. The texture matches perfectly and I am very pleased with it. Once I explained to Jim that I was getting a painter after the repair. He recommended that I try it myself and patiently instructed me on how to apply the paint and the materials I will need. He even provided me with some of his own supplies like plastic sheets and tapes for the repair. I was very impressed with Jim and his professionalism. He takes his job seriously and you can see it in his work. I will definitely contact him again for future work and recommend him to any of my friends. read more

" Hardworking, Honest, Reliable, with 34 Years Experience " I called several Professional Drywall Companies to get an estimate and some work done on the ceiling damage in my garage . Most of the Drywall companies I contacted wanted me to send pictures to them so they could give me an estimate on a text message or my e-mail. They never talked with me over the phone or in person, they just text me or e-mailed me. Jim McCue the owner of Professional Drywall Services in La Jolla, Ca was the only company out of 6 that I called, to actually call me, and come out to my house to give me a verbal estimate. Jim was one of the nicest professional people I have ever met. He gave me a very fair estimate, and showed up exactly on time, and repaired my garage ceiling damage perfectly. Jim was very careful and so professional as he covers all surrounding areas with plastic sheets during the repairs. He was also so nice to talk with. Just an Awesome Guy ! If you need any Professional Drywall work done, call Jim McCue at Professional Drywall Services 1st. You will not be dissapointed ! read more

Jim was fantastic. We had a toilet supply line fail which led to drywall underneath getting soaked. I left him a message in the middle of the night. He called me in the morning, made it to the house by noon, and had the entire project demo'd out so I could dry out the walls the same day. I really enjoyed chatting with him and seeing him work. The difference between having a self-employed expert with a lifetime of experience actually doing the work vs. possibly a recently trained worker sent from a large company is night and day. Jim works fast and we were back in business in no time. The texture match was perfect - as if it never happened. If the need unfortunately arises again, he would certainly be the first I'd call. read more

FINALLY! A RELIABLE AND COMPETENT CONTRACTOR!!! I honestly was beginning to think there was no hope here in this county. I was proven wrong when I hired Jim to fix some holes in my wall and ceiling following some plumbing work. I had some contractors fail to show up for the same job before I called Jim. He was immediately responsive and even made it out to me the same day to give me an estimate (he had a work site nearby). He then scheduled the repair the following day! He is extremely organized, professional, and cognizant of ensuring your house remains clean and covered during the work. While working I discovered I needed to re run a cable wire and he patiently waited and even helped me finish before repairing additional holes I put in the wall. Best of all he is courteous and personable. Rare find these days. He provides EXTREMELY reasonable rates for his service and the work he performs is top notch. Less than a week later I had to do some additional work which required an entire wall to be repatched. Not to be outdone, a call to Jim had him back out here in less than 24 hours to fix the problem. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY IF YOU REQUIRE DRYWALL SERVICES. read more

I caused a hole in my wall while trying to repaint a wall in the bedroom. These things happen. I contacted Him and he came out the same day, gave me a great and competitive quote and came out the next day to do the repair.
