Larry (owner) performed painting services at my home from a Angie's List deal I purchased way back in 2012.  He was kind enough to honor the coupon for the actual services purchased even though it had expired a long time ago.  Larry and his associate arrived on time as promised for each painting session they needed to do in order to complete the job.  Larry went the extra mile to caulk and tack up loose trim and moldings to ensure proper fit and finish.  They did a great job with clean-up and treated my property as their own.  From my experience, Larry and his associate were extremely professional, trustworthy and friendly to talk to.  I will definitely be using them for more upcoming jobs.

"He did a great job from first contact. He was quick to respond and came out for an estimate within days. He thought we wouldn't get back to me for a few days but I had a quote that night.  Within a week I had my new porch and a way to hide my UGLY trash cans. He also fixed my wood fence that some family members did and I must say I was thrilled to have a functioning gate! IT HAS NEVER WORKED FROM DAY ONE LOL! I would highly recommend Tyler! He did an amazing job and we are loving the rewards of his hard efforts to get us fixed!

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

The average cost to install or hang wallpaper is around $575 per room or project, with typical prices ranging from $200 to $1,500. Costs can be higher for custom or luxury products. Since project size varies, it's often helpful to estimate labor costs per square foot, which generally fall between $1 and $7, with an average of $4 per square foot. The total cost depends on several factors, including the quality and type of wallpaper, the size and type of the room, and whether old wallpaper must be removed first. Opting for less expensive materials like peel-and-stick wallpaper or choosing to do the installation yourself can lower the overall cost. For the most accurate estimate, it is best to have a professional inspect the space and provide a quote.

Common mistakes when finishing basement walls include neglecting proper insulation, insufficient moisture management, and poor ventilation. Not addressing these issues can lead to mold growth, water damage, and discomfort. Additionally, inadequate planning, improper framing, and rushing the project can result in subpar outcomes. 

It's essential to follow best practices, seek professional guidance if needed, and prioritize thoroughness and attention to detail.

While many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, they may not adhere as well in humid environments as traditional wallpaper. For best results, choose a vinyl or polyester-based wallpaper, as these materials are more durable and water-resistant. Good ventilation is also crucial to reduce humidity from steamy showers. In bathrooms with high moisture and inadequate ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.

Options include bricks, natural stone, and concrete blocks. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and budget.

In most cases, it is not recommended to wallpaper over existing wallpaper, as the success depends on the type of paper already on the wall. While you might be able to cover non-coated wallpaper, you should never apply new wallpaper over a vinyl-coated one, which is more common. Doing so can lead to poor adhesion, resulting in bubbles, imperfections, and peeling. It can also trap moisture, potentially causing hazardous mold growth between the layers.

Even if the existing wallpaper is suitable, experts recommend applying only one new layer. Adding multiple layers (more than two total) can cause significant adhesion problems, leading to warping and bubbling. For the best results, the recommended approach is to remove the old wallpaper and all paste residue before hanging the new paper. If you are unsure about your wallpaper type, consider consulting a professional.
