Tony Grijalva USG

I had the pleasure of visiting Nevell Group San Diego’s project at UCSD this week and presenting them with an appreciation plaque for their continued support of our finishing products.

The project they’re working on is called the Theatre District Living and Learning Neighborhood which includes 5 buildings ranging from 9 to 21 stories, 2,000 rooms for students, offices for a new college, classrooms, restaurants and retail space totaling over 900,000 gross square feet.

Thanks NGI for your continued support!

Back to where it all began for me. It was almost 20 years ago that I was in the Union. I was in local 2361 and our training school was in Santa Ana.

I’ve been with USG for almost 14 years now. Time sure does fly!

Today I’m dropping off some Tuff Hide so the future generation of finishers can learn some new application/level 5 finishing methods.

If you’re ever interested in learning more about our products, feel free to reach out. Even if you’re not in my territory of Southern California, Arizona or Hawaii, we have a team of experts nationwide that I can put you in contact with and would be more than happy to assist.

Texture trial in Lake Elsinore today. Zoom in on his shirt 😉

Dropping off some material at the Acrisure Arena in the Coachella Valley today. This will be the future home of the Coachella Valley Firebirds of the American Hockey League. Love seeing all of the USG product out here!

New Year
New Formula.
New opportunities.
We’re ready for you 2022.

“It’s Your World, Built It.”

If you’re a drywall contractor in the Southern California or Arizona market and are interested in a free mud trial, don’t hesitate to reach out!

This contractor based in San Diego is using our Total Lite for a custom hand texture on this home.

Total Lite is a great mid-weight formula that can be used for just about any application and has great workability and easy sanding characteristics.

And as always, I like to take care of those who support our products. These guys got commemorative buckets, t-shirts, sponges, stickers and more!

Message me if you’d like to try any of our products or learn more about what USG has to offer.

Working with Brady Co. on some plaster samples by using our decorative interior finish system (DIFS).

DIFS is a trowel applied finish material (plaster) that integrates color and texture (or can be troweled smooth) to provide durability, abuse resistance and color to create a finished wall.

I had the pleasure of checking out an upcoming attraction at Universal Studios today. I can’t say what it is, but I’m excited to take the family to check it out when it opens.

thanks for the tour of the project, I hope you guys enjoy your USG swag! KHS&S, thank you for your continued support of our finishing products!
