Wallcovering or Wallpaper Installation
STAY AWAY! Gary Henson is a thief and if you hire him, HE WILL STEAL FROM YOU! Security cameras in our home captured Gary walking throughout our house, nowhere close to where the project was located, filming our home with his phone. He then went into our master bedroom multiple times where he stole jewelry and used pliers to pry the diamond out of my wife?s wedding ring. His M.O. is to distract you with asks to get him tools ?he does not have? and then he quickly walks through your house while you are away. He will also tell you that you did not order enough wallpaper so he has an excuse to come back and steal items based on his filming. We used him once before we caught him, analyzed our security videos from when he was there in the past, and realized what he was doing. When confronted and told of the evidence, he admitted to the theft. Again, if you hire Henson Wallpapering, HE WILL STEAL FROM YOU!

Gary Henson removed old wallpaper and installed new wallpaper in entry hall and hallay leading to bedroom in 1 1/2 days. The walls look rich and lovely; he did a good job.

Did a horrible repair job. There were bubbles in my wallpaper when he left. My husband and I had to go over it to try to get the air bubbles out. He didnâ t roll the seams. The repair job it look like he tore the paper and just put it on. II would not hire this company again

Gary is terrific to work with and a real professional who refuses to cut corners. Mine turned out to be a particularly challenging project and gary tackled it with gusto and the results are amazing. This is your guy for any wallpaper project.

Gary was very nice, and even stated the project early. However, he did some odd things. For one he went into my daughters room (not the one he was working on) and wrote a phone number on her desk. On the desk it self not a piece of paper. It was in pencil and we canâ t get all of it off. I also found my hair dryer in the room he was working on. Which means he went into my master bathroom and in my cabinets to borrow my hair dryer. He never asked or mentioned he borrowed it. I felt uncomfortable with him in my house. Now the actual work itself. He removed the wallpaper fast. His painting was sloppy. I had to go touch up a lot of spots and there were drips down the wall. His wallpapering was even worse. I am happy to provide a picture. Lastly, we agreed $1900 for the job. When he was done I said $1900 right? He said yes. I paid him. Two days later he texted my husband and asked for $395 more. Bc he forgot to charge us for wall repair. This was never discussed with us during the job. In his initial bid wall repair was in the text. We screen shot him this text and informed him he would not be getting an extra $395. I was very disappointed with Garyâ s work and his lack of professionalism. Who writes on other peoplesâ furniture? Or goes in rooms he shouldnâ t be in.

They are very good @ wallpaper removal. However, painting is not detailed & fine tuned. Paint on woodwork, bare spots on walls. Beyond that, they are messy. Wet carpet, paint on furniture & carpet & bathrooms were wet & lots of paint on fixtures. They don't cover anything. They worked on my project for 2 days & I had to hire another company for 2 days to redo everything.

We hired Gary for wallpaper removal and then painting for two bedrooms and one bathroom. We were happy at first with the wall paper removal. But during the painting we noticed a water spot on the downstairs ceiling. Gary had flooded a bathroom cleaning up his supplies yet never told us until we asked him. Following the painting we were unhappy due to several â missedâ areas in the bathroom and one bedroom. We wanted him to fix these issues. He also said he would return to reinstall light switch covers and to rehang the bathroom mirror. We could never get him to come back!

Gary was so pleasant to work with. He was quick to follow up. The finished product looks amazing, and he did the consult and install all in one. The print was pretty intricate and he lined up everything perfectly. Definitely recommend!!

Gary was great and started the wallpaper project in our bathroom right away. We love the outcome! We also noticed scratches on the toilet seat after he finished and Gary came back and made sure it was corrected (replaced it). Thank you!

Gary came to bid on my project very quickly and we scheduled the job of removing wallpaper within a few days. Gary and Nita spent 7 solid hours on the project and cleaning up the mess of peeled wallpaper. I was glad to get it done in one day and to have the walls that much closer to being paint ready.

Gary come over the afternoon I contacted him, and was back at my house the next morning . He removed some really stubborn wallpaper and border, patched the walls, and was kind enough to lock up my house when he left. He is personable, thorough, and efficient. I will contact him whenever I need wallpapering.

I was in a jam for my sell listing photos. Gary came thru with removing the wall paper layers, prep and painting. Was done with a good day and half to spare for pictures. If they remove wallpaper and paint back with such quality, then they will be good for hanging paper too.
