"MNM did an excellent job hanging wallpaper in our nursery. The wallpaper looks terrific and there were some difficult parts to the job. MNM was easy to deal with at a reasonable price and handled everything very well. I would hire them again."

"Lloyd is a true professional! We needed one room painted quickly. Thankfully he had a cancellation and was able to accommodate us. We wanted the ceiling, walls, one accent wall, and trim painted. Lloyd finished in one day, and the room looks like it is out of a magazine or makeover show! We couldn t be happier! We have him scheduled to paint the other bedrooms!"

"Where do I start.... I called Dave once we closed on our house. The entire Interior / trim needed wallpaper removal, and fresh paint. Luckily I had and empty house to work with for about a month. He made sure he squeezed me in before we moved, which was a huge plus. After discussing my budget, we came to an agreement on a price that was more than reasonable. He and his team worked day / night / weekends to make sure it was done on time. I took forever to pick out colors, etc... and he never was impatient with me. He finished 90% of it on time, the other part was because I couldn't make a descision on color for that area. He came after we moved in and knocked that out promptly. Any touch ups, fixes etc that were needed, he came and did with no issue. He even took the liberty of going out and purchasing all the new air vents, and other things we needed. He even came back and repainted the kitchen completely after we wanted to change the color. I would highly recomend his company, and will use him again. Stand up guy."

"Found Nick’s Home Remodeling through the Tile Shop in Naperville. We met with Nick and found him to be very easy to talk with and communicate what our ideas were. He offered some great additional thoughts based on his past experience remodeling bathrooms. His proposal for labor stated clearly what his responsibility would be and what ours would be. He offered estimate ranges for materials which was helpful to estimate the entire cost of the project. Of course material prices can vary greatly depending on your choices. Nick has relationships with various trades and suppliers which is very helpful. When his crew began the job, they were very conscientious and cleaned up after themselves each day. Nick kept us informed as to their schedule and when/who would be there each day. Nick, Gabriel, Jose and Mike did a fantastic job from start to finish. They all are professionals who obviously take pride in their work. Over the course of approximately 3 ½ weeks, and maybe 14 total work days, they transformed our 1980’s master bath into a beautiful spa bathroom. Nick provides receipts for any materials he purchases during the work, which he also estimates on his proposal. We had a few extras (like removing soffits) during the course of construction that hadn’t been planned for initially. He provides a summary of any additional charges for his crew doing the extra work. We felt he was fair in that pricing. You can expect to pay for those materials and extra work above the proposal amount in addition to the materials you purchase yourself. Of course, during that construction, we used our hall bath which quickly became the object of dreams for its renovation. As it turned out, we had materials left over from the master and were able to have Nick update that hall bath with not a lot of extra cost for materials. That update took only about a week as we weren’t moving anything around, just replacing fixtures and tile. Again, it turned out great! To summarize – Nick provides the labor to tear out the old and replace with the new. You pay for all materials and any extra work not noted on the proposal. His proposals appear to be fairly standard for typical work on similar projects he has done with any variations accounted for either in the proposal if known at the time, or at the end of the project. We would highly recommend Nick’s Home Remodeling. *Cost noted in review is for labor and materials for both Master and Hall Bath. Photos show BEFORE & AFTER Jay & Karen M"

"I bought an Angie's List Deal for $200 for 8 hours of painting from Pride Decorating.  Joe returned my call promptly and came out that same day to take a look at the space and let me know what would be feasible during the time period that I had paid for.  He called me a couple days later to schedule.  

He arrived right at the arranged time, did all the work that we discussed, cleaned up everything thoroughly.  

He was professional, prompt, and easy to work with.

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Painting over wood paneling is an option that can save you money and time. However, if you go this route, the style and texture of the wood you paint over will still be evident. Painting over paneling is an excellent way to modernize an otherwise outdated aesthetic. Instead of removing wood panels, consider painting them a bright color–like white or ivory. This is essentially wainscoting, but without any of the required installation. 

If you can already see the texture of the existing wallpaper through the layer of paint, then the texture could also come through the new layer of wallpaper. If that’s the aesthetic you want, then proceed. But if you want a smoother surface, you should either strip off the existing paint and wallpaper or hang a layer of liner paper before proceeding.

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.

No, you don’t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it’s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We’d also recommend against putting wallpaper over textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly. 

Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay.
