"Mark was very responsive and did the job quickly. Our only issue was there were many paint spots to be removed on the floor after the work was complete. I would hire him again but ask that he use drop cloths. He did the work promptly and we are happy with the paint job itself."

"I was very impressed with David's responsiveness and every member of his crew was a pleasure. They completely removed the kitchen floor (and several layers of subfloor) in my 100+ year-old home, made repairs to floor joists and installed new flooring that looks beautiful. It was an evolving project and I appreciated the team's flexibility and speed with which they completed the project."

"He was great, I called on a Friday and he was out to fix it on Monday at 8 AM precisely on time. He did a beautiful job and thoroughly cleaned up after himself. He even vacuumed my entire floor and took the garbage out when he finished!"

"We received estimates from 4 different companies and decided to go with Dimanno painting because they were the only ones to contact us immediately with a quote and continued to follow up to accomodate our schedule. Once they started the job was complete within a day and a half, others said almost a week."

"I cannot recommend Franklyn and his team highly enough. We hired DNF to paint our home’s exterior including gutters, shutters and downspouts. They also painted our dining room trim being extra careful not to damage a custom wallpaper they were working above and below. It wasn’t an easy project and they did a beautiful job. Franklyn came out to view the house and provided a quote within 12 hours of me reaching out. His price was fair and fell right in the middle of the four quotes I received. He let me know they could start in about two weeks and was very communicative over text and email leading up to starting the job. I think the best thing about DNF is they are a family business. The entire team takes a lot of pride in what they do and clearly are used to working together. They had a very efficient process, moving quickly and carefully through their work and cleaning up at the end of each day. I’m an architect and can be very particular. Franklyn was very receptive and accommodating when I asked for some additional prep work or touch ups. He clearly wanted us to be happy with the work. Our house looks phenomenal and we had a great experience working with DNF. Do not hesitate to hire them for your painting needs!"

"I sent a quote request to Jose the other day to replace my chimney cap which had blown off earlier in the week. About an hour later I got a phone call and that evening he came by to assess the job and provide me a quote. The next morning at 8am, he was on my roof getting the job done. For the gutters, he removed my gutter guards, cleaned out everything thoroughly, and sent me pictures showing me his work. I will absolutely call Jose again in the future for similar jobs. I've already recommended him to a few people for gutter cleaning services, hopefully they will be calling him soon."

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can pay someone to strip wallpaper. Before you hang new wallpaper, you should hire a local wallpaper removal service to prep the surface properly. Wallpaper removal pros cost $0.55 to $1.50 per square foot or $500 to $700 per room. Prices vary by room size and removal technique, as some options are more labor-intensive.

When comparing peel-and-stick and traditional wallpaper, the better choice depends on your specific needs and space. Peel-and-stick wallpaper is more budget-friendly and easier to DIY install. On the other hand, traditional wallpaper lasts much longer and holds up better in a wider variety of spaces, including areas with moisture like kitchens and bathrooms.

Prime and repaint walls after removal to ensure a clean, finished surface.

Limewash can be removed from brick, but the method of removal will depend on how long the limewash has been on the brick. If the limewash has fully dried—which happens after about five days—you’ll need to use a diluted muriatic acid mixture to remove it. If there are multiple coats of limewash, you may need to apply the acid mixture several times to fully remove it from the brick.

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.
