Nilsson Drywall was hired by our GC for our new build in Harrison, Maine, and we couldn’t be happier. Given the amount of natural light in the house, achieving a true level 5 finish was absolutely critical and Jake exceeded our expectations. It’s obvious that he really loves what he does and takes a lot of pride in his work. The attention to detail shows everywhere. He also explained things clearly and consulted with us throughout the process, which made a big difference. If you’re looking for someone who delivers a high-end result and truly cares about their work, we highly recommend Nilsson Drywall.

Jake and his team at Nilsson Drywall worked magic on our 225-year-old farmhouse! There wasn’t a straight line in the place before they came in, but now everything looks flawless. I’m really glad I went with the Tuff-Hide finish—it made a huge difference, giving the walls a smooth, even look that feels high-end and durable. Jake’s attention to detail and craftsmanship were outstanding, and his team handled every challenge with skill and patience. If you want top-notch drywall work done right, Jake is the one to call. Highly recommend!

Such a wonderful team! Incredibly professional and kind, not to mention the final result being an absolutely dream. The team worked so quickly and was a delight the entire time, from initial quote to final voice. Wish I could give them more stars! You won't regret hiring these guys!
