"John was fantastic. Was able to come out on short notice and take care of the wallpaper removal. He was very fairly priced, knowledgable and provided me feedback and tips for painting the room once the wallpaper was removed."

"It went very well, Chris and his team painted the complete exterior of our two story Dutch Colonial home. Included all siding, Windows and trim. They even removed the gutters and reinstalled them. The complete house was Mad Dog Primed and two coats of Sherwin Williams paint. Outstanding job! After 4 plus years our house still looks freshly painted and beautiful. Chris is a man of his word. He does what he says he will do and makes sure your expectations are met completely.

"We were interested in painting some rooms of an apartment which we were renting. We contacted Jason on very short notice. He was able to complete the job on our tight schedule. He was very helpful in picking shades of the colors that we wanted. He and his team did a great job."

"Joe was great. Had to patch up numerous openings in our kitchen ceiling from light removal and replacement during a kitchen renovation. If you haven't done drywall patching in the past, unfortunately, it is not a one day process. Joe came out numerous times to make sure the job was done right and did not rush. Even after paying Joe our final payment and thinking the job was complete we noticed a couple of spots that needed some attention once in the natural daylight the next day. Joe was right out to take care of and made perfect. Does very good work, answers phone calls, and is attentive to details. Would rehire."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

It can take a professional anywhere between several hours and a full day to remove wallpaper in one room. How long wallpaper removal takes depends on the type of adhesive, the wallpaper’s age, the condition of the walls, and more.

Professionals handle heavy lifting, proper disposal, and recycling, reducing environmental impact.

White walls are considered a classic and timeless look and will most likely always be in style. A white wall easily blends into any type of home decor style which makes it a suitable option for most homeowners. Another appealing quality about white walls is that if it's not a color someone is going for, the color is easy to paint over.

Rubbing alcohol may help dissolve stubborn wallpaper adhesive that remains after removal, but be sure to apply it carefully to prevent damaging your walls. Apply a small amount using a cotton swab or pad, then gently scrape or wipe the adhesive away.

Peel-and-stick wallpaper is designed to be removed without damaging walls, making it a good choice for renters or temporary design changes. However, damage to paint or drywall can occur under certain conditions. To prevent issues, the wall surface must be properly prepared before application—it should be clean, smooth, dry, and correctly primed or painted. Applying wallpaper to a freshly painted surface can cause the paint to peel off during removal. Additionally, removing the wallpaper too quickly or aggressively can also cause damage. For best results, always follow the manufacturer's instructions for both application and removal.
