Db Taping

Contacted Ed about finishing the taping of the walls and ceiling of our kitchen renovation. From the start to finish Ed was a complete professional. Responded to my phone call quickly, came and gave an honest quote, and finished the job on the very short timeline we had. His work is fantastic. He is truly an artist; was able to take a plaster ceiling with lots of damage look brand new. Everyone who has seen it has had nothing but compliments. I thoroughly recommend Ed for any drywall or plaster repair, it was an absolute pleasure having working with him.

Ed and company re-drywalled the ceiling and several walls for our project. The ceiling was large and flat with many pot lights. The finished product exceeded anything I expected. In addition to a great job, Ed was so easy to work with. Always on time, and does what he says he will do. Ed will be one of the least exciting contractors you will ever hire, which is exactly what I want!

Great job Ed and thanks.

Ed Batista, in my humble opinion, really deserves 11 stars out of 10.

If I could only use 4 words to describe Ed they would be:

"Master Drywaller and Taper"

In my 35 plus years experience in the construction and engineering industry I have never met a better individual who is dedicated to providing excellent drywall installation and taping service coupled with excellent customer service skills - I believe Ed to be one of the best in the Drywall and Taping Industry.

From the initial visit with Ed I knew I found the right man for the job.

My basement was very intricate in layout & had various geometric shapes requiring precise drywalling techniques coupled with a mastery of taping which Ed easily provided and even surpassed my expectations which are at a very high standard - Ed can attest to this fact.

Ed is very meticulous with the final surface preparation which includes fine hand sanding with a light source to help zero in on any shadows created by uneven surface areas - a true "Master Craftsman" which is very difficult to find nowadays.

The best way to describe my dealings with Ed is as follows:

Professional, respectful, knowledgeable, excellent workmanship, extraordinary people skills, punctual, expeditious, down to earth, no pressure sales tactics, excellent communication skills, immaculate job cleanup, excellent workmanship guarantee.

From start to finish Ed is a humble man for whom I hold a great deal of respect and admiration for - he is hardworking, true to his word and a great human being with extraordinary ethics.

In my humble opinion:

If you are looking for superior drywall and taping installation please give Ed a call - you will not be disappointed - you are in goods hands with someone that takes great care and pride in his workmanship.

Ed was great! He recommended what drywall boards needed to be replaced (and replaced them), installed cornerbeads and did an amazing mudding/sanding job in my basement (about 2100 sq. ft of coverage - walls and ceiling). He also finished my windows boxes very nicely

His work was clean, he was on-time and what he said he was going to do, he did.

Ed is friendly and approachable; we would have him in our home again.

thank you

We needed drywall replaced in our Master bedroom closet. We also needed repairs to the ceiling and walls in 3 separate locations in our home due to water damage from roof leaks. Ed was very precise in his inspection, quote and completion of the work that we wanted.
Ed always showed up on time and was so professional that my husband and me simply relaxed and allowed him to complete our work in an extremely clean and organized manner.
The results in multiple locations in our home are incredible.
Nice to get exactly what we asked for at a very fair cost
Simply put - we highly recommend Ed as we could not be happier
with his work

"Highly Recommended". Reliable, dependable, professional! Ed, did a fantastic Job, showed up when he said he would and did more than I expected. I had approx 350 sq feet of recently scraped popcorn 9ft ceiling with installed crown moulding to deal with. There was some damaged areas that needed some fixing as well as some work that had to be done on a "warped" living room wall. Ed walked in, covered the floor, hung plastic sheeting, Several skim coats later with a bit of sanding, its never looked better. What a difference to look up to the ceiling and across the wall and everything is perfectly flat. I will have Ed back again to address some issues in my basement. Don't waste your time looking around for a "Drywall Guy", call Ed. Really nice guy, very reasonable. He comes prepared and keeps the workspace clean and tidy. Job Well Done!

Amazing Job. Ed is super nice guy, incredible hard worker. He's flexible with his schedule and completed the work very fast.

We decided to rip our ceiling down on the main floor and replace all the drywall. Ed ripped it all down, cleaned it and replaced the drywall, taped it within our time schedule and for a great price. He kept our house clean and covered areas that required it. The job looks amazing.

It was a pleasure to have a professional, hard worker like Ed. I highly recommend him for your drywall jobs.

Ed did a fantastic job drywalling, taping and sanding the walls in my basement. He came on short notice to provide an accurate estimate and was very timely in completing the work. He was very patient and helpful in providing framing tips for some of the more challenging corners and bulkheads. Ed was very clear in his communications and respectful of the agreed upon work schedule and start times. I would have no reservations referring Ed to colleagues, neighbours, friends or family.

Ed communicates timing and status well. Always on time. Clean job area after.
GREAT Workman ship.
I bought a house which had a basement family room that was drywalled by the previous owner but not taped. I got three quotes to do the job. Ed from DB taping was the only one to tell me that the drywall was installed incorrectly. He recommended and estimated removal of 75% of it and install ceiling straps and wall supports and correct the soffit box frames.
If I had gone with one of the other tapers I am sure I would have had problems down the road.

I was in the process of renovating my basement alone - I quickly realized that the taping/mudding process had to be done by a professional. Ed was punctual, polite, and completed the job on-time. Great communication and absolutely no hassles, I would absolutely use Ed in the future.
