"The approximate cost was $1300. The guys were nice. But the paint job isn't holding up that well. From the wall were my alarm is when the wall gets touch the paint is coming off. I don't think they did do a primer. It's not holding up I can see were it needs to be touched up in hallway and the laundry room where they painted and same in the kitchen. They were kind of in a hurry so they didn't spend time on prep. That's the kind of comment I will make to future customer. It looks good but they don't do a lot of prep. There were areas that have to be touched up.  It's not even a full year yet. They kind of want to get in and out.  Initially he came in with a price. He verbally gave me quotes for each room and because I am a female. He went outside to his truck to come back with the final bill and it was 3 times than what he said for each room. I say to him I guess I have to give you a not so great review on Angie's List because the quote and the integrity of all that is part of why I use Angie's List. When I said that he called me back and said oh I'm so sorry I don't know what I was thinking. That wasn't the quote I wanted to give you. I am like oh my god if I hadn't said that this guy will be taking me to the cleaners. They were on time. They were professional."

"He was a local painter. He and his team of painters were terrific. He did a real good job. The job cost me $3000. His price was good. I had received other estimates for the work and his estimate was the most reasonable. They were very well organized, very informative. Their work ethics was excellent. They completed the work in three days that included, preparation, trim, and double layers. They consulted with me from time to time regarding my requirements. They worked from the minute they came out to the moment they left. They took only a lunch break. The owner, Mr. Leonard, had to go out of town. His team continued to work, providing the same quality of work, in his entire absence. They continued as if he were there. He didn?t call me back regarding the questions that I had. However, his team repeatedly asked me questions regarding what and how I wanted things done. When he came back, I told him that I was very impressed with the team and that he had a trustworthy team. It was an excellent team. I am planning to use him for the interior painting, shortly. I will ask for the same team to do the job. I had a really good experience with them. His prices were extremely reasonable. I am extremely happy with the quality of their work. They dug away the dirt from the foundation of the house and painted below the dirt line. It was extraordinary. They put the dirt back. They were very clean. They cleaned up after themselves everyday. At the end of the job, they cleaned everything again and hauled it all away. They did an awesome job. They came out on time. They would inform me in advance as to the time they would arrive. They would come out within 15 minutes of the designated time. I will definitely use them again in the future for interior painting."

"After comparing quotes from several companies, we hired Byron’s team for our house exterior painting and we are very happy with this decision. Not only was his price estimate very reasonable, Byron also impressed us with his knowledge and friendliness. Byron was very easy to talk to and a joy to work with. He was always available and he was very accommodating even when we tried to change the paint color in the middle of the project! The painters were professional, hardworking and very friendly. They finished the paint job on time and with high quality. I would highly recommend Cabrera’s painting to anyone."

"Bernardo is a hard worker. He arrives on time and brings all the necessary equipment. What I liked most about Bernardo's work is how he was careful not to remove any paint as he washed. I would definitely hire him again."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can pay someone to strip wallpaper. Before you hang new wallpaper, you should hire a local wallpaper removal service to prep the surface properly. Wallpaper removal pros cost $0.55 to $1.50 per square foot or $500 to $700 per room. Prices vary by room size and removal technique, as some options are more labor-intensive.

Think hard before deciding to German schmear your home’s exterior brickwork. If you do not like the look, you are pretty much stuck with it, as it is impossible to remove this finish the way you can remove paint. You risk damaging the underlying brick if you have to chisel and acid-wash it away. It will also take a very long time, and remnants of the mortar wash will always remain.

As long as the surface you’re putting the tile on is properly prepped, peel-and-stick backsplashes should stay on and last anywhere from 3 to 5 years. The best way to ensure the tile stays on is to sand down and clean the wall before applying your design.

While you can remove wallpaper yourself, it is a labor-intensive process that risks damaging your walls. Common DIY methods include using a steamer to loosen the adhesive or spraying the paper with a solution of hot water and vinegar or dish soap before scraping. However, steamers can cause irreparable damage if used incorrectly, and the spray-and-scrape method can harm drywall if it gets too wet or you scrape too aggressively. For these reasons, hiring a professional is often the fastest, easiest, and safest option. A pro has the experience and specialized tools to remove wallpaper efficiently without damaging the underlying surface, which saves time and minimizes the prep work needed for your next wall treatment.

The pros of wallpaper include its durability and longer lifespan than paint, as well as its versatility. The durability can translate to lower long-term costs for upkeep and replacement, and the versatility means you have more options for customizing rooms in your home. Some downsides include that it’s difficult to remove, it’s not ideal for rooms or areas exposed to high moisture content or sun exposure, and it’s tricky to install. A professional wallpaper hanger can help mitigate these issues, though, by installing it properly and in areas suitable for wallpaper.
