We had damage during the March Kona low, and needed skilled drywall repair services. Most folks we…read moretried to reach didn't bother to return our calls or emails. Jay responded right away, came over to look at the damaged areas the very next day, and was the first to deliver a quote. It turns out that she did the best job in properly scoping the required work, and the quote reflected that. After we got the source of the leak repaired (which took months to get someone to just so that), we circled back with Jay and scheduled. She and her crew were efficient, communicative, did clean and expert work, and finished the job in the time promised at a very fair price that was well within scope. When you go thru an event that creates sudden home damage, it's easy to get desperate and choose a professional service in haste. While we were ultimately able to get a few quotes, there was a lot of "sales talk" and "more than the necessary scope" along the way. Aside from price, take time to think about the character and professionalism of who you may hire. I can say with 100% confidence that if you hire Jay of JB Elite Drywall, the job will be done perfectly. But most importantly, you will be supporting a small business owner who is ethical, professional, and very skilled. We could not be happier with the outcome!

Mike's Drywall and Painting

My apartment had recently suffered multiple unidentified leaks this past year that has been a…read morenightmare to navigate. I first messaged Mike and other candidates in 2025 when I was gathering quotes for an insurance claim that ultimately got denied. It was very clear that Mike and the team have great workmanship from the photos - this is coming from someone who's seen great drywall work and extremely poor work that I could do better myself. I could tell right off the bat that these were the guys I wanted to work with. The proof was in the "mudding" as I changed scope to account for materials, budget, level 4-5 finish, and paint finish quality. Having to pay out of pocket for an expense I anticipated someone else to cover was a bit of a concern for my wallet. Mike was patient with me and we worked out a price we could agree on by removing items from the scope that might still been in good condition and limiting the amount of work that needed to be done on a bump-out wall next to my shower. John texted me soon after we agreed to move forward and scheduled the work for the following week. He also suggested a change in material (DensShield) from what I had originally requested (blueboard) and I am so grateful to have skilled/experienced teammates to work with that really know what they're doing. Day 1 was demolition, hanging, and mudding. John was finished and out before lunch and I could already tell that the quality of work was spectacular. You couldn't even tell the ceiling was repaired because it was blended in perfectly with the surrounding area. The bump-out wall was looking way better than it was even prior to the water damage. We left the fan on throughout the day and overnight to let the hot mud dry out. Day 2 was sanding, priming, and painting. Fortunately, I purchased and stored paint that was specific to my bathroom from a previous repair and had it at the ready this time around as well. Honestly, when I first discovered the leak, I originally planned to fix it myself so I also had a brand new container of primer. I'm pretty satisfied with the work, especially with the DensShield suggestion and installation in both affected areas to account for future leaks. I didn't know such product existed and the workmanship mudding a material such as DensShield and it essentially coming out nearly flawless is pretty impressive. Overall, I would give Mike's team a solid 9/10. Prompt responses, flexibility in materials/scope, and great quality of work. The quote, as some have mentioned is on the higher side compared to other candidates I'd spoken with, but I learned the last time that you get what you pay for. Could I have gotten it cheaper? 100%. Would it have come out as good? Not sure. The last guy I hired at maybe half the price got the job done, but clearly not done well and that's what got me in this predicament, SO... don't cheap out if you can help it - especially for a bathroom or high-moisture/high-risk area. I'm certain I'll be working with Mike and the team in the future and there are no regrets here as compared to my last drywall adventure. Thank you Mike & John for your patience and hard work.

There were a couple of places where there was rotting wood on the fascia and they removed and replaced it. They caulked around the window frames and pressured washed the windows while they were pressure washing the house. Ben noticed that the flashing on the edge of the lanai was rusting in one spot and that water was pooling under some loose shingles. Unfortunately, during this time it decided to rain so when the sun came out and dried up everything he sealed the loose shingles and replaced the flashing. The flashing was an additional cost but that didn't bother me as I wanted it taken care of and was not a part of the original estimate. Ben came back after the painting was finished to do a walk around with me to check any areas that I might have had concerns about and took care of them. He actually did a few additional things for me that had nothing to do with the initial job. Oh and the price for the exterior paint job was very reasonable! So, please don't hesitant to hire Ben and his crew if you want excellent workmanship on your next project.

My husband and I tried to do it two years ago for our son's nursery and needless to say it was an experience we never wanted to do again. We knew we needed to hire someone to do the wallpaper for our daughters nursery this time and thank God Homer said he was available! We got quotes from other people, some were over $1000 which to me is totally absurd for one wall - I think they priced us at $1,400 or something like that, not to say the effort doesn't deserve a decent amount of payment but over a grand just seemed like a lot especially for our budget. Homer gave us a quote of $450 and knowing he had good reviews on Yelp I was comfortable saying yes. He was on time, professional, super nice, made sure I knew he was still arriving to do the job the day before, always messaged me back if I had questions, and the final result is incredible. He showed up in the morning just like he said he would and was done in the early afternoon. If I ever need someone to do wallpaper services in future renovations I am absolutely contacting Homer to do the job!

Our initial contact with EP was through Jonathan where he explained the process, answered all our questions, and then developed a quote.

Once the painting started their focus on quality workmanship was excellent. We had a crew of basically 4 man (Guy, LJohn, Neal, & Derrick).
