"Jason Griggs and his small team did an awesome job! The quality and attention to detail that he brings to the job are excellent. Because he is highly rated on Angie's List, he was also in high demand. While I could afford to wait almost 3 months for him to have an opening, it was worth the wait. I was very satisfied. It was completed several days earlier than initially estimated, too. I had a two-story family room with very high ceilings, crown molding with intricate detail, columns that required detailed trim, and about 10 rooms, a two-story entryway/foyer, long hallways, and a loft. It was an extensive amount of work. Not only was the quality top-notch, but Jason is very good at communicating and doing what he says he will do. He kept me posted when they would begin, gave me daily updates, and when the job was near finished, he walked through the entire house with me to ensure I was satisfied. He consistently worked an 8-hour day, showed up between 8:00-8:30am each day, and finished between 4:30-5:00pm. He was great to work with, respected my property, cleaned up well each day, and when the job was complete, removed everything and left my house in the same condition it was prior to the start of work. His team will move furniture, remove draperies, fixtures, etc. for you. He will put furniture back and he will re-install anything that needs to be put back up. He is a conscientious professional and is respectful and deferential to the customer. He is a refreshing professional to deal with, on top of being a great painter. I could not be at the house every day, as I had to work, and I was able to trust him with my garage code to come and go as needed. He and his team proved to be trustworthy, and after a couple days, I had no worries at giving he and his crew open access to my house and the belongings. You will be very happy working with Jason and he will do a great job for you. I am a picky customer and I really demand high quality. So if I can be satisfied, anyone can be satisfied. Oh, and I found his prices to be pretty reasonable, too."

"My older home is 100% siding, with both aluminum and wood. GC South Star sent their project manager Gerson out to quote and manage the project and he and his team did an amazing job. House was power washed (they even did the fences around the house as a courtesy!), they removed a satellite dish, cables/wiring and patched holes, taped up windows and doors prior to spraying the house and balcony - house looks completely new! They were prompt in their estimate and scheduling, price was fantastic (I had gotten 5 estimates and theirs was the best) and I am very pleased with the work. They also did not require the balance of the payment until we had walked through and finished anything that needed fixing - only a couple of small things. Based on their work and professionalism, my parents also hired them to complete a total repainting of the interior of their home (they also reviewed them). We'd use them again in a minute and you will be VERY happy with their work! Great team!"

"Contracted to paint master barn and closets, as well as, strip master bathroom wallpaper. Trino and his crew did an Excellent job; Completely satisfied. They arrived at 10 a.m. and finished at 7 p.m. The prep work was thorough and there was attention to detail (ie. caulked, fixed all nail pops, etc). There was some minor touch-up needed and Trini arrived the very next day at 9 a.m. and did all that was needed. The crew worked hard and were mindful of our schedule. Their quote was also very competitive. I highly recommend Strong Painting Work."

"I paid for service including estimated amount of paint needed in advance to take advantage of a zero interest offer on my credit card. I was told at the time he had 2 houses in front of mine and would be working on mine within a few weeks. A few weeks go by and i hear nothing so i reach out to him asking for a schedule for the painting. No answers and after several attempts no response. I was ready to cancel the work but had already paid. I called my credit card agency and they suggested a send my request in writing. I then wrote angies list identifying my issue. That was helpful in that they were able to contact the painter and then he would promply call me. He finally finished the painting yesterday afternoon and was preparing to leave as i pulled in from work. I quickly surveyed the job and found two areas i was not satisfied with. He made excuses that it was due to my house something or other...bush in the way...weak wood and brushed it off. Had he offered to work on the spots to my satisfaction i would likely rate him higher but he was in a big hurry to leave. Not at all what i expected."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Wallpaper lasts an average of around 15 years, but there is some variance. The type of wallpaper matters, as vinyl wallpaper tends to last the longest—sometimes 20 years or more—while a peel-and-stick wallpaper, which is the easiest to install for DIYers, will usually only last for around five years. Exposure to high humidity, smoke, and UV rays from sunlight can also limit the lifespan of your wallpaper, as can heavy traffic in the installation area.

The average cost to remove wood paneling is $2,800, but total costs may be higher or lower depending on the size of the room, your location, and the amount of prep work required. Once the paneling is gone, you may have additional costs depending on the condition of the wall beneath.

Prime and repaint walls after removal to ensure a clean, finished surface.

In most cases, it is not recommended to wallpaper over existing wallpaper, as the success depends on the type of paper already on the wall. While you might be able to cover non-coated wallpaper, you should never apply new wallpaper over a vinyl-coated one, which is more common. Doing so can lead to poor adhesion, resulting in bubbles, imperfections, and peeling. It can also trap moisture, potentially causing hazardous mold growth between the layers.

Even if the existing wallpaper is suitable, experts recommend applying only one new layer. Adding multiple layers (more than two total) can cause significant adhesion problems, leading to warping and bubbling. For the best results, the recommended approach is to remove the old wallpaper and all paste residue before hanging the new paper. If you are unsure about your wallpaper type, consider consulting a professional.

The simple nature of peel and stick wallpaper means it should come off much more easily than traditional wallpaper that is glued to your walls. You’ll still want to work slowly and carefully to avoid tearing it, but most peel and stick wallpaper should come off without a chemical agent to loosen it.
