"Chris painted our den in the fall of 2012.  He did a great job and was very fast. We had to wait a few weeks for him to get to us but he kept me informed of his projected arrival.  He was very pleasant to work with and completely trustworthy. I had no hesitancy about leaving him in my home working. He was neat and left things in good order each day.  He is very intelligent and the most interesting painter I've ever worked with.
Chris' dad was a cabinet maker, so Chris is very knowledgable about primers and paints for wood finishes. He removed all of the knobs, and handles and transported the doors to his shop.  He was a perfectionists and sprayed them with a commercial sprayer.  They were absolutely perfect-he did a superior job.  We had originally planned to "glaze" them but they looked so good, we didn't want to cover the awesome finish that Chris acheived.  In addition to the awesome paint job, it turned out that many of the doors were crooked which didn't show up very much with the wood finish.  But, once painted, it did. He took the extra time to straighten them and drill some new holes, etc. for us. 
Believe me, Chris is worth waiting for. We thought his prices were very reasonable. The last time that I had some cabinets painted, they peeled and chipped very quickly.  This finish isn't going to come off easily. Chris is the best!

"Paid cash. -----No definitive schedule initially. First startup delayed due to company ordering the wrong tile. Got the impression the company thought it was my fault until my evidence proved otherwise. Pricing of material not identified, rolled up into activity. To date unknown how much the tile cost, only that I had to pay $88.00 more for upgrade. Had to request additional shoe molding along side sink cabinets in both bathrooms at the end of the project; one would think that would come with the project. Shoe molding and cost did not come into question until I started asking about the possible removal of my base molding. Both bathroom walls were left with technicians' hand print smears. I expected to pay more due to engaging a professional company. Anticipated more transparency and made to feel conflicted in choosing Paul' Tile when I made a request into the company related to quality and pricing of the tile; I only wanted to have some written description of pricing per unit and quality of the tile I selected. Never received any descriptive correspondence on the tile in my bathrooms; only a verbal that the company uses good products and that I got a discount."

"They did a really good job.  They were great.  I will recommend them to anybody.  I will even use them again.  The workers were all clean and they were all on time.  They finished the job when they said they would.  They did a few extra things that I didn't ask for just to make sure the job was done right.  I was impressed with their work.  They were personable and seem to enjoy what they were doing.  They did above and beyond of what I asked for."

"I contacted them via email and received a return phone call the next day. They came out approximately one week later to give me an estimate. He gave me a verbal estimate before he left and followed up with a written estimate in email about two days later. I assumed that painting my house meant painting my entire house such as doors and gutters but found out that was not included when we got the final bill. The charges for those things were extremely reasonable but I would have preferred being told up front that those would be an extra charge. Those extras added up to about $300 over the estimate. Had it been another $100 I might have had some heart burn about not being told before hand. Aside from that they were very quality conscious and made sure the job was done right and to our satisfaction. They were done in less than a week after I got the estimate. Very professional and customer service oriented. We are very happy with the outcome. Our home looks fantastic! I would use them agai"

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Peel-and-stick wallpaper is designed to be removed without damaging walls, making it a good choice for renters or temporary design changes. However, damage to paint or drywall can occur under certain conditions. To prevent issues, the wall surface must be properly prepared before application—it should be clean, smooth, dry, and correctly primed or painted. Applying wallpaper to a freshly painted surface can cause the paint to peel off during removal. Additionally, removing the wallpaper too quickly or aggressively can also cause damage. For best results, always follow the manufacturer's instructions for both application and removal.

Using a fabric softener solution is a popular and low-cost DIY method for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited. While it may work on some types of wallpaper, it is unlikely to be successful on vintage styles, and there is no evidence that it is more effective than other removal methods. There are also several potential downsides: the solution can leave behind a residue that may damage your walls or interfere with the adhesion of new wallpaper. Additionally, this method can create a strong, overpowering aroma that takes a long time to dissipate, making it a poor choice for homeowners sensitive to smells.

The cost varies from $1 to $3 per square foot, depending on the type of wallpaper, the wall condition, and the labor involved.

No, you don’t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it’s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We’d also recommend against putting wallpaper over textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly. 

We don’t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That’s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall’s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.
