Report
They did the drywall for Lennar in Summer's Corner and I don't think that there is a single 90 degree wall in my house. Lots of unfinished work. It's not just us either. Many neighbors with similar or worse problems.

Report
Hired Cohens to spray the closed cell foam in my garage, and put new drywall up. They completed the spray job a month ago. Since then Ive called over 5 times to get the drywall people to show up. I was even given the owners personal number. Jimmy the owner, refused to return any text regarding when they could show up. If your looking for customer service, and someone to show up in a timely manner, this is the wrong company. They obviously have enough business from new build construction companies, local independent business, is not important.
