"I cannot express how totally satisfied and happy I am with the work performed by Oscar and his crew. They removed the popcorn texture from all our ceilings and when the ceilings were repainted they looked better than new. Oscar and his crew did an amazing job of keeping the mess to a minimum and when they were finished, the whole house was cleaned looking great. I would definitely recommend Oscar to anyone who is looking for a painter."

"Dirk does a beautiful job with everything he does.  He is bright, and he knows how to handle almost any kind of repair or cleaning job. If he needs help with something, he knows many people in the business with whom  he consults.  He makes sure the job is done right.  
He doesn't cut corners. His work is very neat, and the results are always beautiful. 
He re-did painting in my basement after another contractor's work didn't last very long.  Dirk appropriately wire brushed the surfaces that needed it, applied the proper water seal paint and a top coat, and the basement looks great!
Dirk is a very hard worker, and he works fast.  He will do almost any type of repair or clean up work.  He is very neat and pleasant, and he always leaves his work area cleaner than he found it.  Paint is applied precisely, with no drips or uneven edges. Dirk at times has even washed dishes he found in the sink and cleaned my cat litter box.
Dirk came up with an ingenious way to replace window sills that were rotted, rather than replacing the entire windows. He properly removed the rotted wood, replaced it, caulked it, and covered it with new aluminum strips.  They look like part of the original windows, and they are water tight.  His solution was much better (and less expensive) than what the window manufacturer had  suggested.

"Bob and his gang were really great. They were reasonable, flexible, and easy to work with. They were able to accommodate each of my requests and the paint looks fantastic and was done in such a short period of time. Our whole house was preped, including wallpaper removal, and painted from top to bottom in less than a week. I am happy to recommend them."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

One of the biggest downsides to peel-and-stick wallpaper is that it doesn't last as long as traditional wallpaper. Its lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the paper, proper wall preparation and application, and the room's conditions. As a general rule, peel-and-stick wallpaper can last for at least five years, but this can vary significantly. Budget products may only last about 3 years, while higher-quality products can stay up for 7 years or more in ideal conditions. Factors that can shorten its lifespan include high humidity (such as in a bathroom), dirty walls, and low-quality paper. If used on flooring, expect it to last only 1 to 3 years unless sealed. However, the shorter lifespan can be seen as a positive, making it a great choice for people who enjoy switching up their interiors more frequently.

No, you don’t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it’s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We’d also recommend against putting wallpaper over textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly. 

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.

Yes, most professionals patch and smooth walls after removal to prepare for new finishes.

Because poison ivy and similar plants can cause potentially life-threatening allergic reactions depending on your sensitivity, it's best to hire a professional to remove it. Hiring a local lawn care service or other professional also increases your chances of successful eradication so that you don't have to deal with the issue again several months down the road.
