I tried to choose one good company who can perform all the work, I tried to avoid multiply Contractor?s working in my house (from the experience I know that always in the middle of the project there will be an issue). In the end I had 3 great candidates to choose from. Wally (Owner) came to my house and took all measurements as well as make a suggestions where I can purchase material for my remodeling (bathroom, wallpaper). After receiving my quote ( I need to mentioned that- was very detailed, they pointed out all work that they were going to do, as well as price range if some of the extra work needs to be done during construction) they quickly set up a date to start which was about a month away and it was perfect. Izabela (Office Manager) emailed me some web pages and brochure with places to shop. I got a great discount on their recommendation from the tile store and they arranged delivery to my house (and took back the overage, which will be refunded to me....really nice). I also purchased some of the material from Chicagoland Remodeling directly like: faucets, bathroom accessories, some of the tiles, wallpaper, vanity & quartz-they really gave me a good deal what let me to save money. Izabela was my primary contact throughout the 3 week process and was very consistent in emailing me and keeping me up to date and/or just there to answer questions, etc. She was always professional and very available. Jack was my carpenter/plumber and electrician all in one! From day one we hit it off perfectly. He and crew was always there on time, worked many long days. Every single day he would put down rug coverings and by the time he left you would never guess there was any construction going on at the house! On days they may have been running late Izabela or Wally always let me know. Wally and Izabela made GREAT design suggestions for laying out the tile and best use of the space...many things I would never have thought of and I was extremely grateful that they took the time to walk me through everything. My bathroom look awesome. Wallpaper we chose was beautiful so I wanted to be sure that it will be install in the right way. Voytek did an excellent job, wallpaper looks like one big pc without visible seams. I already recommend CR to few of my friends who also wants to install wallpaper. I need to mentioned that the same wallpaper at the Merchandise Mart was 40% more expensive than what I paid ordering thru CR. That?s a lot of savings. I will not tell a lot about roofing project (roof is roof ;-), so far so good no leaks), all workers are very hard working to make my house looks good. Roofers cleaned up all debris as well as removed nails form our yard. They did our roof with total tear off and installation in 1 day-amazing. I would use them anytime. Right now I am planning my next project to hire them?."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/il/elmwood-park/chicagoland-remodeling-inc-reviews-440818.htm"},"position":8},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"FRANZWA DECORATING","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"IL","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Kay W."},"reviewBody":" We had put a liner over Paneling in the family in the early 90's and then put the textured wallpaper over that.

As previously mentioned, we needed extensive wall repairs (who knows what lies beneath 21 year old wallpaper!) but the team leader kept me informed of the repairs and added costs, and even worked with me to change a bit of the original plan regarding the faux finishes so we could stay within budget. The finished project more than met my high expectations. We will definitely call them back for future painting projects.

Wallpaper Removal reviews from real Angi homeowners in Orland Hills, IL
We had an amazing experience with CertaPro of Palatine. They removed wallpaper and painted the rooms we wanted done. The end result was outstanding! Thanks CertaPro of Palatine.
Not well. Several years later I am still regretting that I hired them. The wallpaper they put up in the master bath never was right & there was glue everywhere (ceilings, on the wallpaper itself). I finally just had it removed only to find out that it was not put up correctly and it was a...

He does a great job of consulting with you and trying to figure out what you want done. He had to remove the trim and some old wallpaper. He put in the new wainscoting and painted everything. He did such a great job, everything blends together and looks like it fits.

"Matt and his team are the ultimate professionals. Matt spent hours with us recommending color choices for our living room, kitchen, main bathroom, hallway, master bedroom/bathroom and family room. His color consultation and choice of colors for the various rooms in our house was priceless. He mixed a custom color for the wall behind our bar. This took about 10 different formululations and turned out perfect. Our master bedroom had textured paint and ceilings that needed to be scraped/sanded down. Multiple coats of joint compound were applied to smooth out the walls. The team did a wonderful job and the walls turned out beautiful. He returned after we had carpeting installed in our master bedroom and touched up all of the marks from the installers. He went over our house with a fine tooth comb after the painting was completed and any imperfections that were found were fixed immediately. We highly recommend Matt and his team. We would absolutely hire again."

"They were 1 of 3 quotes. We told them exactly what job we needed done. We dealt with Hector and Martha. They both reassured us that no problem they can get the job done. They quoted us (I have a contract) of $4,500. $3,500 is their labor 50 or and &1,000 would have been for materials. We were definitely going to go with better materials so we only really paid attention to their labor price of $3,500. They said the job would take 3 days and they told us they would start on a Monday. They postponed until Tuesday, they took a day off in the middle of the week for important business and they did not finish up until Sunday afternoon. My husband and I had been looking around every time they left and we were finding more and more things. Every day would bring it to their attention and she said they would fix. We did ask for two doors to be hung that was not on the original quote. At the end of everything she wanted $300 more than the original $3,500 quoted. I believe it was for the door hanging. I then proceeded to show her the hole in the arm of my brand new 2500 couch I showed her the paint that was all over the edge of my brand new carpet that was literally being installed the day they came to quote us I showed her there's no ventilation in the drop ceiling they never cut out vents the tracks in the ceilings do not meet the ceiling tiles do not fit light fixtures are falling the back door does not fit and they did not trim it out so we have gaps in our door and I believe the door frame is bent and useless the bathroom door does not shut due to it not fitting there is a cracked tile in the ceiling every piece of paneling has little holes or tears Nothing fits they painted the trim while on the walls so there's paint all over the paneling all over my floor the back door knob they have flipped upside down it does not lock will not work. There is broken trim they used my household vacuum to vacuum up their mess everyday where I had nails and screws coming out of the hoses ripping holes in my vacuum Some of the trim is not painted the same color as others They did not trim out the window There's not one job they were hired to do that was completely Done and done properly And all she told me the whole time was you owe me 300 I did the best I could or oh we don't do that you have to hire somebody else after they already tried doing the job and screwing it up. I'm sorry this was so much to message and the box was so small and I think this all came out thoroughly I really hope I didn't make a fool out of rambling. At the end I did pay the full $3,500 that was originally quoted even though I also had to replace paneling they broke for them just to turn around and reinstall it and break it again but they did get the full payment I did not renege on the contract. I forgot to add there were no holes or vents putting anything so I can't put outlet covers on I cannot put light switches on I can't do anything nothing is is ready"

FAQs for wallpaper removal projects in Orland Hills, IL
Hiring a professional wallpaper remover is almost always worthwhile. Although the work is more expensive due to labor costs, doing it yourself is extremely time-consuming, complicated, and easy to make mistakes and wreak havoc on your walls, regardless of the tools you use. Professional wallpaper removers have the tools and experience to get old wallpaper down quickly and without damaging the walls behind it.
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.
In most cases, you cannot wallpaper over existing wallpaper. It’s possible to wallpaper over non-coated wallpaper, but vinyl-coated wallpaper is much more prevalent in homes, so you generally shouldn’t put new wallpaper over existing wallpaper. Adding a layer of wallpaper over vinyl-coated paper will lead to poor adhesion, leaving behind bubbles and imperfections in your wall. Plus, wallpapering over vinyl-coated wallpaper can lead to mold growth, which can be hazardous to your health. It’s usually best to hire a local wallpaper removal service to handle the task to avoid these issues.
The average cost to remove wallpaper is around $3 per square foot, but the total depends on the type of wallpaper, how easy it is to remove, and the size of the room. Most homeowners spend around $780per room for wallpaper removal, and prices typically fall between $200 and $2,000. Wallpaper removal is expensive because it tends to be a very time-consuming job, and it can sometimes take a full day or more for the work to complete.
The easiest way to remove wallpaper is to use a steamer. The hot steam will loosen the wallpaper paste and make peeling the wallpaper off in large sheets much easier. Unfortunately, steamers can create irreparable damage on your walls, so it’s not a good idea for DIYers to use steamers to remove wallpaper. Instead, hire a professional wallpaper remover to do the work for you. This method will not only speed up the process, but it will also ensure your walls will remain intact post-wallpapering.
