I called Controlled Environmental Solutions and talked to Alden Sawyer. He came over to measure all the rooms, hallways, closets, etc. with a measuring wheel. After a few days, he emailed me a work proposal and contract. Alden needed a couple of weeks to pull all the necessary permits before the work started. Which was fine because I needed all the time I could get to plan things out - and that's when the fun started. Alden had instructed me to remove all the furniture and all furnishings from the walls - everything had to be removed from the house. A lot of work. I took us a week to get most of the things out. I called Alden and told him that a few large and heavy items like dresser drawers and the TV entertainment center were too heavy for us to move, and he said that that was okay. Art and his two helpers were here for a couple of days to get the work completed. They brought with them heavy-duty rolls of plastic sheeting, rolls of super-sticky duct tape, and staple guns. All the walls and floors were covered with plastic sheets. I had removed some the ceiling light fixtures, and they removed the rest. They also removed a ceiling fan. When they were done after two days, I looked at the work they had done. It was a lot of hard work and it seemed that they had done a good job. All the ceilings had been scraped clean. Some things to keep in mind - - Obviously, quite a bit of planning is needed - where to put the furniture, where to stay during the project. - When the crew finally leaves, you still cannot enter your home until the next morning. They leave some plastic sheeting in place (they call them critical barriers). They said that they were taking air samples with them and it will be okay for us to enter the home if the samples came back negative for asbestos. The next morning, I called Alden Sawyer to make sure that the labs were okay and then took down all the plastic sheeting myself. - When the ceilings are scraped, there will be plenty of gouges in the ceiling and plenty of tiny holes from the staples, especially along the top and bottom edge of the walls. A painting contractor will be needed to fix the mess. - They will remove electrical and other ceiling fixtures to get a good scrape. Whatever comes down has to go back up. That means that you might have to hire an electrician if you are not comfortable handling electrical fixtures. In my case, it took me about half a day to put back the ceiling fan Art had removed. Popcorn ceiling is a pain. Good riddance!

"We hired John and Anytime Painting to paint our exterior garage, doors, as well as concrete steps and front porch. He was great at first, and we selected his crew over other quotes. However, after just a few months, the paint on our front porch and steps is pealing off in patches. We tried contacting him multiple times via direct text as well as through Angi to repair the porch and stairs, and we have not even gotten a response yet after a month of trying. That is not to mention that his crew left at the end of the job with items obviously unfinished, like the trim on an area of the the garage that had been primed but not painted at all in one spot, the lighting fixture they had removed was not put back onto the house, and they had to come back a week later to complete the obvious items. IT seems likely that they only applied 1 coat of paint to the porch and front steps, which was not obvious at the time, but other steps painted with the same paint are fine, so it is the only explanation. Now we are going to have to have the front porch and steps repainted again, after paying him to do the job. I am not typically one to leave negative reviews, and was hoping to resolve this directly, but since he is not responding to us, we don't have a choice, as I would definitely not recommend working with a company that does not complete or stand by their work and then ghosts."

"Pattern, Precision, Perfection! My bathroom elevated! I am so happy I found Sarah with Marie’s Wallpaper. I had purchased peel and stick wallpaper from Serena and Lilly with the idea of doing the job myself. Then I decided it may be above my pay grade and I better hire a pro.

FAQs for wallpaper removal projects in Valley Village, CA
Hiring a professional wallpaper remover is almost always worthwhile. Although the work is more expensive due to labor costs, doing it yourself is extremely time-consuming, complicated, and easy to make mistakes and wreak havoc on your walls, regardless of the tools you use. Professional wallpaper removers have the tools and experience to get old wallpaper down quickly and without damaging the walls behind it.
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.
In most cases, you cannot wallpaper over existing wallpaper. It’s possible to wallpaper over non-coated wallpaper, but vinyl-coated wallpaper is much more prevalent in homes, so you generally shouldn’t put new wallpaper over existing wallpaper. Adding a layer of wallpaper over vinyl-coated paper will lead to poor adhesion, leaving behind bubbles and imperfections in your wall. Plus, wallpapering over vinyl-coated wallpaper can lead to mold growth, which can be hazardous to your health. It’s usually best to hire a local wallpaper removal service to handle the task to avoid these issues.
The average cost to remove wallpaper is around $3 per square foot, but the total depends on the type of wallpaper, how easy it is to remove, and the size of the room. Most homeowners spend around $780per room for wallpaper removal, and prices typically fall between $200 and $2,000. Wallpaper removal is expensive because it tends to be a very time-consuming job, and it can sometimes take a full day or more for the work to complete.
The easiest way to remove wallpaper is to use a steamer. The hot steam will loosen the wallpaper paste and make peeling the wallpaper off in large sheets much easier. Unfortunately, steamers can create irreparable damage on your walls, so it’s not a good idea for DIYers to use steamers to remove wallpaper. Instead, hire a professional wallpaper remover to do the work for you. This method will not only speed up the process, but it will also ensure your walls will remain intact post-wallpapering.
