"Brush brothers exceeded our expectations. Their price was competitive and they have a large crew who came in and knocked it out of the park! Several members of their crew have specialties like drywall repair, texturing, removing settlement cracks etc! We have hired them to paint the inside and outside of four homes so far, and their price was the lowest each time. I highly recommend them."

"Francisco was very professtional. He always was on time and if he was running late (one time), he called and let me know.  He explained everything he was going to do. He did great work. The texturing was perfect. He finished in 2 days. He started on a Friday and even came in on Saturday instead of the typical Monday to finish.
I would definitely hire Francisco again.

"Jerry has painted the exterior of our 3100 Sq Ft house and has painted the eves of a 1 story rental house in Sunnyvale. In both cases, his pricing was fair. He showed up to do the work when he said he would (he's often early). In both cases, he finished early. His work is very thorough, and he does a great job doing simple touches like exterior patching."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Removing a wallpaper border requires the same process to remove full walls of wallpaper. Clear the area, spray down the surface with your hot water and vinegar solution or store-bought spray, wait 10 to 15 minutes, then scrape it off with a putty knife. Sometimes, border wallpaper lifts easier than larger sheets, so you can just peel it right off the wall by hand.

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. 

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it is generally better to remove it first to guarantee a smooth, professional finish. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it may lead to issues if not done correctly.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if it is in excellent condition: smooth, non-textured, clean, and firmly adhered to the wall. Ensure there are no bumps, tears, or peeling areas, and that all corners and seams are securely glued down. You might also consider painting over wallpaper if removing it would damage the underlying wall. Additionally, some wallpapers are specifically designed to be paintable, which can add texture to a room.

However, there are risks. If the wallpaper is textured, damaged, or peeling, these imperfections will show through the new paint. The moisture from the paint can also loosen the wallpaper's adhesive, causing it to bubble and potentially damage the wall. To mitigate these issues, clean the surface thoroughly and use an oil-based primer to help the paint adhere and prevent the old adhesive from bleeding through.

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.

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.
