"We had some mold remediation done in the ceiling of our garage and master bedroom and needed parts of the drywall replaced and patched. Lawrence was great! He showed up promptly for the estimate, looked things over and gave a quote on the spot. Some other companies tried to convince us to repaint the walls in our bedroom in addition to the ceiling, which didnâ t make sense to me. Lawrence only did the work that was necessary and everything turned out great! He repaired the two spots, painted the entire bedroom ceiling, and left zero mess. He even replaced the insulation that had been removed with the mold remediation for only the additional cost of the insulation itself. He was friendly, professional, quick and affordable. It doesnâ t get much better than that!"

"I was very impressed with Precision Painting.  Jason was able to schedule an estimate during non-business hours (7 PM) so that I didn't need to take time off work.  Jason and his crew showed up promptly at 8 AM every day (never more than 5 mins late).  We had some plumbing issues while Jason was painting (leak requiring portion of ceiling drywall to be removed).  Jason assessed the problem and fixed (patch/paint the ceiling) at minimal cost.  I found Jason to be extremely trustworthy to the point that we felt comfortable giving Jason a key to our house (which we never do for contractors).  Paint job looks amazing with no paint spilled on carpet, furniture, etc.  Highly recommend."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Yes, most professionals patch and smooth walls after removal to prepare for new finishes.

One of the biggest downsides to peel-and-stick wallpaper is that it doesn't last as long as traditional wallpaper. Its lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the paper, proper wall preparation and application, and the room's conditions. As a general rule, peel-and-stick wallpaper can last for at least five years, but this can vary significantly. Budget products may only last about 3 years, while higher-quality products can stay up for 7 years or more in ideal conditions. Factors that can shorten its lifespan include high humidity (such as in a bathroom), dirty walls, and low-quality paper. If used on flooring, expect it to last only 1 to 3 years unless sealed. However, the shorter lifespan can be seen as a positive, making it a great choice for people who enjoy switching up their interiors more frequently.

Yes, many companies offer convenient options to accommodate service timing needs.

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. 

If you’re installing new wallpaper and have leftover glue, you can remove unused wallpaper paste from the bucket or pan it’s in by letting it dry. If it’s an oil-based paste, seal it in a plastic bag and throw it in the garbage. Otherwise, toss the leftover wallpaper paste in the trash. Although it’s water-soluble, don’t rinse unused wallpaper paste down the sink because it could dry in the pipes and cause a blockage.
