"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."

"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."

"Ken removed the wallpaper on the bedroom wall and patched the additional cracks in the bedroom walls. He cleaned up everything really well and did a good job. I did not put up the wallpaper so I'm not sure what was underneath so it could have been a rather involved job to remove it. I was pleased with his work and the fact that everything was cleaned up so well.

"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."

"Jon and Ray did an impeccable job!! Both home projects were completed in a timely manner. Jon is extremely meticulous, and very conscientious of how the project should look on completion. Jon and Ray both were determined to make the siding and paint job look as good as new. The gentlemen are hard working, dedicated and very dependable!

"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

No. If you overlap seams, the wallpaper will not come out flat. In addition to possibly throwing off your pattern match between rolls, overlapping seems necessary. If wallpaper is properly acclimated, and temperature and moisture conditions are optimal during installation, there is no reason to fear shrinkage as it dries.

Wallpaper lasts an average of around 15 years, but there is some variance. The type of wallpaper matters, as vinyl wallpaper tends to last the longest—sometimes 20 years or more—while a peel-and-stick wallpaper, which is the easiest to install for DIYers, will usually only last for around five years. Exposure to high humidity, smoke, and UV rays from sunlight can also limit the lifespan of your wallpaper, as can heavy traffic in the installation area.

Accent walls have been a popular decor choice over the past two decades, and they don’t seem to be going out of style any time soon. They’re a quick and easy way to change the mood of the room without committing to painting every wall, and many homeowners like the visual interest they add to a room.

You shouldn’t need extra adhesive for peel-and-stick backsplash tile. The adhesive on the back of the tile sheets should do the trick. However, if you experience issues with the tile peeling or falling off, make sure the wall you’re working on isn’t textured, as that can prevent the materials from properly adhering.

Textured or patterned vinyl wallpaper designs are the best option for hiding imperfections. Embossed designs or faux finishes like brick, wood, or linen textures are especially effective at camouflaging dents, cracks, or uneven surfaces. Avoid smooth, shiny finishes, as they can highlight flaws rather than conceal them.
