Welcome to Sergio's Construction, here to assist you with all of your remodeling needs. I have done consistent service all of my life. You will not be making the wrong choice when choosing, Sergio's Construction. Give us a call today!

"My request was for a simple curb core. I paid a $106.00 deposit and they sent someone who didn't know what he was doing and he broke the concrete around the hole (pic attached). I called and the owner came out two days later and put on a patch. I was concerned that it wasn't going to last so refused to pay until, at least, the patch had dried. Two days later, I moved the pipe he put through the hole (it was sticking out in the gutter) and the patch fell out. Pictures attached. I called and didn't hear back for 24 hours so have now hired someone else to repair the damage. I want my $106 deposit back. He destroyed my curb and now I have to pay MUCH more to repair it. At this point I don't want him to do anything further. If we end up in court I'm going to ask him to pay for the repair."

"Calroc also did the whole house painting inside after they removed our popcorn ceiling. They installed the 2 bath sinks/meds cabinet, a vanity light in the master bath and fixed a small portion of our laminate floor. They came on time and stayed late to finish the days' work. Jorge sent us a clear contract of what the project will be and was very prompt with his response to our texts/calls. Cesar's crew even helped us move some heavy furnitures. After they were done, there was very little clean-up to be done. A few months after the job was done I had to contact Jorge because there was a very slow leak under one of the sinks. He was again very quick to respond, worked with me to schedule an inspection and sent Cesar to find where the leak is coming from and got it fixed. I would hire these guys again for their work ethic! Thanks Jorge for a great customer service!"

Wall Repair questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it’s not always ideal. If the wallpaper is firmly adhered, has no bubbling or peeling, and isn’t textured, you can try to prime and paint over it. Use an oil-based primer to prevent the adhesive from bleeding through. However, if the paper is damaged or loose, removal is the better long-term solution.

You should always use a primer before painting over wallpaper to help the paint adhere correctly and get a good finish. Not all wallpaper can be painted over, so do a test patch in an inconspicuous area before painting an entire wall. If the primer and paint don’t adhere, you’ll need to remove the wallpaper, prime the wall, and then paint.

How long peel-and-stick wallpaper lasts depends on a few factors, including the conditions in the room, the quality of the wallpaper, and the wallpaper's application. As a general rule, peel-and-stick wallpaper can last for at least five years, but you may decide to remove it sooner. Under ideal conditions, it can also last for much longer.

Factors that may shorten the lifespan of peel-and-stick wallpaper include high humidity in a room (such as a bathroom), dirty walls, and low-quality paper.

You may end up with extra wallpaper once your project is finished. Hang on to that wallpaper, as you may need to use it to patch up areas that get damaged later on. If you have a lot of excess wallpaper, try getting creative with it. You can use it to line the inside of a cabinet or drawers, for example.

Whether you skim coat the entire wall or just a portion depends on the extent of the damage. If you only have small sections of gouges, a targeted skim coat will do the trick. However, if the surface feels uneven across larger areas, a full skim coat produces a smoother, more uniform result and helps prevent a patchy-looking paint finish.
