"Fantastic. My house looks terrific. Gene walked the house with me and assured me that his team could address all my concerns, including cracked stuuco and dry rot. They did a great job and everything looks better than I could ever hope for. They even managed to match old paint colors from 40 years ago, that are no longer available. I would recommend and use Gene's Painting again in a heartbeat."

Are you searching for a reliable painting contractor in San Jose, CA who understands your unique needs and delivers exceptional results? Look no further Urbina's Painting Company is a locally owned and operated business with a passion for transforming residential and commercial spaces into vibrant works of art. Since we began in 2018, we've been dedicated to providing top-notch painting services that exceed your expectations.

"We recently hired Urbinas to paint our front door and wouldn't recommend them. Ulysses came out to paint the door only to tell us that he wasn't able to paint a door that wasn't hung in the doorway and asked us to get our contractor to hang the door and install the hardware before painting. After having the door installed Ulysses and his father painted the door but forgot to paint the top and bottom of the door which voided our warranty with the door company. The door company came out and asked if we had hired someone who was licensed and bonded because the work didn't reflect someone who follows the Painting and Decorating Contractors of America standards. When we asked for a refund Ulysses blamed us saying we should have told him to paint the top and bottom and we are now left with a door that is now out of warranty and have to pay for another licensed and bonded painter to fix the mistake."

Professional team in Contra Costa handling tough painting tasks since 1990, reasonable & affordable rates. Providing lower rates than the market, Services, and 100% customer satisfaction guarantee. I am a 20+ year painter and so is my crew. We have plenty of experience as journeymen painters and are looking to make your house look beautiful and new again.

"Working with Art and his team at Jenuine Painting on the exterior painting of our home was absolutely great! They were very communicative, punctual and professional. Our house is an older house and the paint was in bad shape. There was a lot of prep work required and they did a phenomenal job paying attention to the details to ensure things were done correctly and also to ensure the overall finish of the job would look great! They were very realistic about the overall scope of work and they were able to knock the job out in 2.5 days. They've followed up since completing the job and made sure to emphasize if we notice anything the more the paint settles to not hesitate to give them a call. I'd definitely work with them again and have already given some referrals to our friends and family looking for similar work. I'd recommend them and their services to anyone!"

"Humberto Garcez and his team painted our condominium in advance of it being rented. Although the painting job ran over-schedule and over-budget, the work itself was good and cost effective. However, the problems occurred in the post-painting, clean-up/fix-up phase of the project. There were numerous issues that were left unresolved that Humberto and his team said they were going to fix but never did. These included paint stains on mirrors and walls, window blinds that were not put back up, a door that was painted shut, fixtures and fittings that should have been replaced onto walls that were not properly reinstalled and several other matters. Numerous e-mails to Mr. Garcez failed to even elicit a response from him. Hence, although we were initially reasonably pleased with the work, we ended up being disappointed with this company and would not use MaxPaintingPro again."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

DIY removal is possible but requires patience. Professionals ensure smooth wall prep and avoid wall damage.

Removing wallpaper can be easy if you have a non-coated wallpaper, but most homeowners have vinyl-coated wallpaper, which is more durable but tears very easily during the removal process. This feature makes it challenging and time-consuming to remove most wallpaper. There are tools to speed up the process, like steamers, but, unfortunately, it’s easy to permanently damage your walls when using them. In most cases, it’s best to hire a professional wallpaper remover to get the job done quickly and without damaging your home.

One of the biggest downsides to peel-and-stick wallpaper is that it doesn’t last quite as long as traditional wallpaper. The life span of peel-and-stick wallpaper is about five years, depending on the quality of the wallpaper and how well you prep the wall before applying. The good news is that, because of its shorter lifespan, peel-and-stick wallpaper is a great choice for people who enjoy switching up their interiors more frequently.

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.

Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay.
