"John was very responsive and professional. He walked me through what would be necessary to complete the work and the associated costs. He showed up right on time and prepped the area with drop cloths to keep things clean. I was extremely impressed with the quality of work. My wallpaper was hung perfectly, likely the result of years of experience."

"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."

"Chris, the owner, came out to give me an estimate before the work. He was on time, very professional, and knowledgeable about the work. He provided a written estimate for the work to be performed, and his estimate was on the high side of the 4 estimates I received. He was also able to give me an approximate amount for additional wood repair or replacement which I wanted done at the same time. Although I did not negotiate much with him on price because of his excellent reviews and the fact that although his price was the highest, it was still in the ballpark of the other estimates, and Chris was willing to match other service, warranty or additional work offered by the other service providers I received estimates from. The project went well. One to three men showed up on time over a few day period to power wash, scrape, repair or replace wood and prep for the job. They were all polite and professional and cleaned up at the end of each day. Chris was always available by phone or if requested in person to answer any questions. Chris worked with us in picking out the colors, and he is very knowledgeable in all aspects of the painting trade. A few extra items were required to be repaired which were discovered during progress of the job, and which was again handled in stride by Chris' team. The actual painting was again done on time and professionally. 2 to 4 men worked each day until the job was completed. Again the team was polite and professional. The job came out beautiful. I reviewed and inspected at the end of the job for any missed items or other issues and they were all addressed immediately. The final amount paid was as originally agreed to. You can trust this company to do professional work including in affluent areas where the level of service is expected to be done to a high standard. I have been in this house for 15 years and have had it painted every 5 years. This was by far the best job done compared with any of my past painters. I cannot give enough praise or say enough positive things about Chris and CQ painting. I also trust, based on his responsiveness and professionalism, that he will as stated, stand behind his work 100% if necessary. You cannot go wrong with this guy or his company and I will definitely use CQ Painting again."

"Ken Turner Custom Painting beautifully restored almost the entire interior of my house. I chose this company because of the high ratings the company has received on Angie's List, and because the company removes wallpaper, which is no longer commonplace among painting contractors. The painters worked diligently and quietly and put in long hours when necessary to stay on schedule. l highly recommend this business, as the owner is very focused on customer satisfaction. I have already reserved time with them for another project in the spring."

"When we accidentally ended up with a hole in one of our bedroom wall, Joe answered my call very quickly and came to our house to take a look at our wall the next day after work hours. Unfortunately we had some water damage behind that section due to a leak on our chimney, and joe put us in contact with someone who could help with that before he could repair our wall. Joe did the job in one day and we are very satisfied of the result and the cost was definitely reasonable according to us."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

The pros of wallpaper include its durability and longer lifespan than paint, as well as its versatility. The durability can translate to lower long-term costs for upkeep and replacement, and the versatility means you have more options for customizing rooms in your home. Some downsides include that it’s difficult to remove, it’s not ideal for rooms or areas exposed to high moisture content or sun exposure, and it’s tricky to install. A professional wallpaper hanger can help mitigate these issues, though, by installing it properly and in areas suitable for wallpaper.

The color of the paint, its opacity, and the depth of the texture on the paper all affect how many coats of paint you need to apply to paintable wallpaper. You'll need at least two coats of paint to ensure even coverage. Don’t be surprised if you need to apply three coats if the embossing is very deep or if you use a dark color.

While some people are confident in their ability to replace concrete by drilling out the broken pieces and replacing them with bagged concrete, it’s possible to run into snags that make hiring a professional worth it. Trying to level concrete slabs can require special equipment, which can be pricey to rent and tough to operate. It's also crucial to contact your town's municipal office to ensure you are allowed to take on the project without a permit.

It is less costly to paint than wallpaper when you only consider the upfront cost. Wallpaper costs $320 to $820 when applied by a pro, while paint only costs $200 to $700 per room. However, when comparing wallpaper versus paint, consider the long-term as well. Wallpaper can save you money over time since it has a much longer life span than paint.

Walls should be as smooth as possible before applying peel-and-stick wallpaper. Although you technically can apply wallpaper on textured walls, the peel-and-stick variety won’t last long without a clean, smooth surface for the adhesive to stick to. If you have textured walls, consult a pro about removing the textured finish before moving forward with wallpaper.
