Q: Does peel-and-stick backsplash stay on?

• <div><p>As long as the surface you&rsquo;re putting the tile on is properly prepped, peel-and-stick backsplashes should stay on and last anywhere from 3 to 5 years. The best way to ensure the tile stays on is to sand down and clean the wall before applying your design.</p></div>

• <div><p>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&mdash;which happens after about five days&mdash;you&rsquo;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.</p></div>

I hired Les to demolish an old junk-filled garage and everything went smoothly. He was very prompt with his communication and everything was done exactly as expected. I was impressed with how clean they left everything. I highly recommend choosing Les Is More Junk Removal.

They are great, and we have referred him to several people. I think they are fair on price. The price is different when they do the garden care and they also do our snow removal. The price depends on what is being done. They keep their own schedule, and I don't care, I just want it done.

"I recently had pleasure of working with 2nd Street painting for an exterior pain job, and I could not be happier with my decision. After receiving several quotes from different companies, I chose 2nd Street painting, largely due to Nate's thoroughness and evident passion for his craft. From the start, he demonstrated deep knowledge of exterior painting and provided valuable insight that reassured me that I was in good hands. The team, consisting of Clayton and Josh, took the project to an entirely new level. Their attention to detail ensured that the final result was not only fabulous but also flawless. One challenge we faced was the need to replace several wooden boards on my home. While this task took Josh longer than initially anticipated, I was impressed by the professionalism and courtesy displayed by both Clayton and Josh throughout the process. They honored the original quote without adding any unexpected charges, which is a testament to their integrity and commitment to customer satisfaction. Communication was seamless from start to finish. The kept me informed at every step, which made the entire experience stress-free. Overall, I highly recommend 2nd Street painting for anyone looking for professional and respectful painting company. Their skills, dedication and customer service are truly commendable explanation!"
