Basement mudding, taping and painting

Professional, trustworthy, fair price, attention to detail, job done right. If you are looking for a job done fast, cheap and sloppy, Barry is not your man. But if you want quality and have it done right and hassle-free, Barry is your guy. He is a true professional and takes great pride in his work. I compared several contractors to mud, tape and paint my basement development and his price was fair and honoured upon project completion. Best of all, except for the progression of work being done, you would not even notice that Barry has come and gone. Clean and tidy after every visit. I would highly recommend Barry for all your drywalling, mudding, taping and painting needs. You will be very satisfied and avoid the headache of chasing after contractors to have something done properly from the start.

Drywall Contractor

Overall all we are extremely pleased with the drywall work that Mudd Monkey did at our house. The company is very professional and we dealt directly with the owner which was nice. He was very accommodating and was able to work around our schedules. He provided us with a detailed quote at the start of the project and honoured everything within the contract, including some of the more custom aspects of the job - the price he quoted was the price we paid. In addition to doing a great drywall job, our house was left clean with all supplies removed and the dust and debris swept up.

We would definitely recommend Mudd Monkey if you are looking for a drywall contractor.

Drywall and Tape Basement

Right from my first impression of Barry, I knew that he was someone I could trust. He was very professional in is approach. I was please that he provided me with a written quote instead of just spitting out a number. Barry's quote came in as the lowest of all the quotes I received.
Now that the work is done, I have zero regrets. Barry communicated very well with me and answered all my questions I asked through the process. All the work was done in a very timely manner.
Most importantly, the final product is superb.
I would definitely recommend The Mudd Monkey to anyone in need of drywall work.

Drywall, Mud & Tape House

Through the process of searching for a drywall company to use for our project we chose to use Mudd Monkeys for many reasons; fair pricing, open to answering our many questions, and not a crazy long wait time to start. Upon meeting Barry we felt our project was in the right hands as he is informative, honest, and has a strong attention to detail. Barry and crew completed our job, were a pleasure to deal with, and did great quality work. Barry's attention to detail and his drive to make his customers happy confirmed he was definitely the right choice for this job and any future ones!

Drywall Insall for Basement Development

Found Mudd Moneky off of Home Stars and really happy with Barry Thomas. Barry does quality work for a reasonable price and he's excellent to deal with. Barry was legitimately concerned that we liked the final product and takes pride in his work. Barry is a mature trustworthy guy, easy to have in your home. Recommending Mudd Moneky to all my flooded friends in Calgary.

Basement Development

We are doing our basement renovation and did framing, electrical and pluming ourselves. But we feel it is difficult to do drywall installation and taping etc.

We found a few contractors from this web site and we chose Mudd Monkey based on other people's reviews. Barry from Mudd Monkey provided us a reasonable quote and did professional work. He is very kind and always returned my calls or emails timely. I'm extremely pleased with his work. Highly recommended!

Drywall, mud, tape basement Reno

We took the task of developing our basement and hired the sub-contractors ourselves. It has been quite an experience with contractors not showing up for quotes, or coming to give the quote but never provide it...so it has been frustrating trying to find good contractors. I found Barry with the Mudd Monkey Inc and very happy with our initial meeting. He was very honest and came the same day I called him to check our job and emailed a quote that night! His quote was extremely fair. We hired the Mudd Monkey and he did every he could to ensure that the job was moving forward without delay. He finished within the expected timeline with a beautiful job completed. It is obvious that he takes great pride in his work and truly cares about his client. He did a fantastic job and I have already recommended him to a friend. Extremely happy customer!
