Bob's Electric has over 38 years of experience. I am licensed in Arizona and bring the same expertise as I have all along. I offer extremely fair pricing and unparalled service. Majority of the work, I do by myself. I am insistent upon being the one who does all of the final electrical connections on any and all work performed by Bob's Electric. This allows me the opportunity to keep all of the work done at the highest level of quality possible. I take careful assessment of all the bidding that is performed in order to give the best possible price without compromising the quality of the work being performed. If you're looking for a contractor that will give you the quality you expect, I ask that you consider Bob's Electric. Specializing in smaller jobs, the ones that others do not want to do. But also more than happy to take on big jobs as well.

"Fixed the problem. Very knowledgeable and efficient!"

Owner-operated. Cost is determined by the job. No travel charges. No service fee. May contact through e-mail. Free estimates. EPA renovation, repair and painting certified (now required by state law for painting contractors).

"He destroyed my mother's doors. He received oak doors both six panel and bifold. The clear coat have on all doors have numerous long thick runs. The clear coat also has large scattered debris scattered all over. When confronted with his complete incompetence he blamed everything but himself. He delayed the project two moths while we waited for him to complete this job. If you decide to employ him good luck. You will need it."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

The average cost to remove wood paneling is $2,800, but total costs may be higher or lower depending on the size of the room, your location, and the amount of prep work required. Once the paneling is gone, you may have additional costs depending on the condition of the wall beneath.

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.

Mixing fabric softener into water is a low-cost way to remove wallpaper that has been passed among DIYers for years, but it has limited success. It works on some wallpaper, but not likely on vintage styles. Also, be careful, as it could interfere with the new wallpaper’s grip power.

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

Removing wallpaper can be easy if you have a non-coated wallpaper, but most homeowners have vinyl-coated wallpaper, which is more durable but tears very easily during the removal process. This feature makes it challenging and time-consuming to remove most wallpaper. There are tools to speed up the process, like steamers, but, unfortunately, it’s easy to permanently damage your walls when using them. In most cases, it’s best to hire a professional wallpaper remover to get the job done quickly and without damaging your home.
