Edit: Since this review has gone up, they have had their lawyer send a cease & desist letter threatening legal action if I don't remove reviews from review sites. This sort of tactic might play into what you see (or don't see) from other reviews.
<tldr>MD Drywall is very unprofessional and does bad work</tldr>
I hired MD Drywall to board, mud, tape & sand my house. Unfortunately his boarders were completely unprofessional and unskilled. They overdrove at least 1/3 of the screws and didn't use glue as was specified in the contract.
When, after the first day of boarding, I brought these problems to the owner's attention, his response was that he didn't believe me, because he'd been working with them for so long. When he came to look at what they'd done, he was still unwilling to admit they made mistakes and took shortcuts, simply stating they'd fix it. He also said he'd talk to the boarders to ensure that glue would be used and screws set to the proper depth.
Well, no more glue was used, and screws were still all over driven. By not using glue to board they put MD Drywall in breach of contract as it was specifically written in that they would use glue. He didn't care.
His boarders showed up at random times, not when I was told they'd be there, and even just decided to not show up one day, without letting MD Drywall, or me, know. They took drinks from my closed-off shelves (taking without permission), knocked a computer over and denied it (dishonesty), broke one of my tools, damaged a window, covered over EVERY plumbing cleanout, and the list goes on and on.
When I got him to come look at the other problems after the first day, including the damaged window and broken tool, his response was to get defensive and say he doesn't believe me. Eventually he ended up yelling at me despite the bad work his crew had done.
Instead of owning these mistakes, replacing my broken tool, repairing my window, he just straight-up ghosted.
And really, I'm glad, because if this is how he reacts when his crew does obviously wrong things and puts him in breach of contract, then how would it have gone at the end if they'd done bad mud/tape job? Probably really not well.
Photos to come later.
