"I was very happy with the results. They were very professional, allowed me input on the stain color (which was matched incredibly well to my floors and existing trim), and cleaned up after every day (the windows took three partial days to stain & seal). They were very flexible to my schedule and made it very easy for me. To do the estimate and review the job they worked within my schedule versus making me change my schedule to match theirs. My windows look awesome now! I will definitely have them back and I would recommend them to anyone."

"Very Good. Whole house's exterior and all trim was painted. The company was prompt and showed integrity. He showed up and finished when promised. The workmanship was outstanding. Paint was applied evenly and all masking was accurately done and removed. I highly recommend this company. ."

"We hired Rick and team to remodel two rooms in our house - the dining room and office. Full scope included wallpaper, wainscoting, painting and installing new light fixtures including wall sconces and pendant lights. Rick was prompt in his responses and got the project off the ground quickly - great communication throughout, started and ended work on time, and the result exceeded my expectations. I would definitely work with Rick and team again."

"We received the quote on 10/13/2014, but we're unable to start the work until 1/23/2015 due to our work and travel schedule. Huber still honored our quote from 3 months prior. He started on a Friday with one other crew member and carefully taped up plastic barriers to prevent the construction dust from spreading. My husband and I were extremely impressed with how much they accomplished on the first day. They laid the first coat of mudding and sanded the master bedroom and bath, they repaired the drywall in the dining and living room including other minor repairs that were not included in the quote without asking for more money. They also removed all the textured drywall from the family room ceiling. The second one day they installed the new drywall in the family room ceiling, including taping and mudding. They also fixed drywall taping in the kitChen ceiling without bumping up the quote. They were prompt each day until the repairs were complete. They were professional and respectful of our home and the quality of work was excellent. Should we have any other repairs, we would not hesitate to use them again!

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

The average cost to install or hang wallpaper is around $575 per room or project, with typical prices ranging from $200 to $1,500. Costs can be higher for custom or luxury products. Since project size varies, it's often helpful to estimate labor costs per square foot, which generally fall between $1 and $7, with an average of $4 per square foot. The total cost depends on several factors, including the quality and type of wallpaper, the size and type of the room, and whether old wallpaper must be removed first. Opting for less expensive materials like peel-and-stick wallpaper or choosing to do the installation yourself can lower the overall cost. For the most accurate estimate, it is best to have a professional inspect the space and provide a quote.

Hiring a professional wallpaper hanger is usually a worthwhile idea because, while the application of wallpaper itself is easy, getting the finished product to look good is complicated and takes a lot of practice and patience. A professional wallpaper hanger will not only be able to hang your wallpaper seamlessly, but they will also get an even application of wallpaper paste to avoid bubbling and imperfections immediately and over time. Plus, they can provide their professional opinion on whether to remove or wallpaper over an existing layer of wallpaper.

While many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, they may not adhere as well in humid environments as traditional wallpaper. For best results, choose a vinyl or polyester-based wallpaper, as these materials are more durable and water-resistant. Good ventilation is also crucial to reduce humidity from steamy showers. In bathrooms with high moisture and inadequate ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.

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. 

As long as the surface you’re putting the tile on is properly prepped, peel-and-stick backsplashes should stay on and last anywhere from 3 to 5 years. The best way to ensure the tile stays on is to sand down and clean the wall before applying your design.
