"It is always a pleasure having Garry work on our house! He just helped with a front porch redo by painting the door, trim and touch up. As always, he did an excellent job, and he was very conscientious in his work. He painted our home eight years ago and was able to fix the massive peeling paint and rotten wood issues. I know that peeling paint issues are tricky and he removed at least half the paint on a few areas around the home. Over the years he has also pressure washed a few times and soft washed the roof. He stands by his work, providing a 10 year warranty on the paint job and uses premium materials and provided excellent preparation. We have had no trouble with the paint. I would certainly recommend Garry if you are looking for excellent work."

"Smooth Move and cleaning did a excellent job on mounting my tv and installing 2 ceiling fans. Blair and Shantel are a excellent pair. They work well together, did everything in a timely manner. And kept me posted on the job at hand. This is my third time using them. I have other projects in the works with them. Definitely give them a call. You won't be disappointed."

"Paint by Liz is AMAZING!!! Liz and her assistant were professional, timely, and thorough when they came to my house and replaced a door and a separate door hinge. Not only was the work high quality, but she and her assistant were extremely pleasant to have in the home. I would HIGHLY recommend her services and will be calling her next time we need something done. Thank you so much Liz!"

"When i called we discussed what I was looking for. He explained I needed to look at a place that sells mobile home items such as for the tub so it would fit correctly. Saving me a HUGE headache! Whenever I had a question he had no problem answering it. On our agreed upon date for installation he arrived early and immediately began working. He widen areas and removed and replace tub,shower,cabinets and other misc items. He was there for 4 days and each day he would leave the rooms picked up. I am very pleased with the outcome it is exactly as we discussed...beautiful and functional! And he even do a couple of little extra things such as fixed my leaky faucet for no additional charge! Hard to find such service anymore! He was friendly and took pride in his work. I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing home improvements.

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.

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

Costs depend on wallpaper type, wall condition, labor, and necessary repairs.

You’ll need to wash the walls to remove wallpaper adhesive residue after removal as part of the prep process for painting or rehanging wallpaper. Old adhesive can cause texture issues and prevent paint or wallpaper from adhering properly to the wall’s surface.

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.
