"This is updated review post is to correct grammatical errors in my prior post: Well, what does one say when a diamond is found. As far as a painting professional, Joe Asaro is that diamond. Several years ago, Joe painted the stucco and wood trim on our entire home. The paint has held up incredibly on both the stucco walls and the wood wood fascia and eaves and I would not even considered touch up painting as necessary if it was not for the replacement tile roof installed a short time ago. With the tile installation, the new trim rake tiles where installed exposing more wood than before and therefore, Joe's services were necessary again. As always, Joe met me at my home, walked the site with me and promptly sent to my email his proposal and as prior, the price was very reasonable, especially for the workmanship that Joe provides. Joe is hard working and honest and the quality of work he provides is "top notch" and proven by the lasting of time. Thanks again Joe for your professionalism and thoroughness and for consistently offering a great product and service. Nick"

"Chris & his entire team were great to work with. His estimate was clear, the price competitive, and his team was ready to start right away. Over the course of a few days his team removed the popcorn from the ceilings, retextured and painted. They also removed some wallpaper for me. I am thrilled with the results and would recommend them highly to anyone who needs similar work done.

"The person who came to provide a quote was very professional and answered our questions. The 4 workers showed up on time. The job was suppose to take 2-3 day only took one and a half day to complete. They basically power-wash and started painting right the way. The fixtures was well taped up to protect them since they used spray paint on the stucco exterior. We did noticed the wood parts underneath the roof did not get proper preparation - old paint chips were just painted over without removing them first, other hidden parts looked like they weren't even touched. In addition, the top of the patio cover was left unpainted. We only just noticed that now when we have the occasion to climb up to fix something unrelated. The clean up was marginal, debris were left on the driveway and walkway. There were quite a few print marks left on the window frames. Lastly, they did not remove the plastic sheets put on our solar panels for protection. We had to call them back a few day later when our neighbours noticed the plastic sheets were still on the panels. The price was the least expensive compared to the other quotes we got, but I suppose you get what you pay for."

"My husband and I are over the moon with the work Krugh Custom Services preformed at our house. We needed dry wall and painting done. Every employee showed up on time and proceeded professionally. They went above and beyond to ensure our house stayed clean while they were performing their work. After the work was finished Dave the owner called to ensure we were pleased with the work of his team. We will be needing the outside of our house painted in the next few month and we will for sure being hiring Krugh Custom Services for that job as well. Couldn't recommend this company enough!"

"I had Jesus come back to do some more work for us, as he has proved himself to be reliable, helpful and does excellent work.  He always has a good team working with him, they're clean, tidy  and honest workers and get the job done well.  

The walls and cabinetry all look wonderful, in fact everything  Jesus and his team has done in our home has always looked good!

They are very pleasant to work with, and  I have no hesitation in recommending them."

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

If you’re installing new wallpaper and have leftover glue, you can remove unused wallpaper paste from the bucket or pan it’s in by letting it dry. If it’s an oil-based paste, seal it in a plastic bag and throw it in the garbage. Otherwise, toss the leftover wallpaper paste in the trash. Although it’s water-soluble, don’t rinse unused wallpaper paste down the sink because it could dry in the pipes and cause a blockage.

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.

Hiring a professional wallpaper hanger is usually a worthwhile idea because, while the application of wallpaper itself is easy, getting the finished product to look good is complicated and takes a lot of practice and patience. A professional wallpaper hanger will not only be able to hang your wallpaper seamlessly, but they will also get an even application of wallpaper paste to avoid bubbling and imperfections immediately and over time. Plus, they can provide their professional opinion on whether to remove or wallpaper over an existing layer of wallpaper.

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 cost varies from $1 to $3 per square foot, depending on the type of wallpaper, the wall condition, and the labor involved.
