Hi ive been doing interior and exterior work on homes since i was young i have 14 years expirence with painting drywall building fences and etc if your lookin for a good honest construction company im your guy

"These men will steal your money and are dangerous. Do not allow them into your home and do not give them your money. We hired Tye Dowdy to install flooring in 2 of our bathrooms. Tye was paid half to start the job and bailed on day 3. He broke our front door handle off and removed it. Among other small damages we will need to fix Tye left the job less then 50% completed and either showed up late or left early every day. On day 2 we were expecting Tye to have finished the project having quoted that it should only take "3-4 hours to complete". He was a no show with no communication. The next day Tye told my wife the reason he didn't show up was due to s situation on another on a job site. Tye said that a few of his employees were fired and went back to the property and smashed the walls with 2x4's and stole 4k worth of tools from the owner of the house. These men are dangerous and unprofessional in every way. Do not make the same mistake we made."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

The fastest way to remove wallpaper is usually to spray the paper with a mixture of hot water and either vinegar or dish soap, let it soak in, and then scrape off the wallpaper using a putty knife. Unfortunately, this process can easily damage your walls if you spray too much or scrape too aggressively. Your best bet is to call in a professional wallpaper remover who knows how much to wet the walls and how much pressure to apply when scraping the paper off. They might also use steamers and other tools to speed up the process.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if you select wallpaper that is designed to be paintable. This type of paper is meant to add texture to walls. Alternatively, if you have old wallpaper you’d like to cover up, you can often paint over that instead of removing it. However, it needs to be smooth, damage-free, and non-textured. Otherwise, any bumps, tears, and texture will show through the paint.

The pros of wallpaper include its durability and longer lifespan than paint, as well as its versatility. The durability can translate to lower long-term costs for upkeep and replacement, and the versatility means you have more options for customizing rooms in your home. Some downsides include that it’s difficult to remove, it’s not ideal for rooms or areas exposed to high moisture content or sun exposure, and it’s tricky to install. A professional wallpaper hanger can help mitigate these issues, though, by installing it properly and in areas suitable for wallpaper.

How long peel-and-stick wallpaper lasts depends on a few factors, including the conditions in the room, the quality of the wallpaper, and the wallpaper's application. As a general rule, peel-and-stick wallpaper can last for at least five years, but you may decide to remove it sooner. Under ideal conditions, it can also last for much longer.

Factors that may shorten the lifespan of peel-and-stick wallpaper include high humidity in a room (such as a bathroom), dirty walls, and low-quality paper.

You’ll need to wash the walls to remove wallpaper adhesive residue after removal as part of the prep process for painting or rehanging wallpaper. Old adhesive can cause texture issues and prevent paint or wallpaper from adhering properly to the wall’s surface.
