"The most professional company I've ever delt with! Turned our house into a home! I called 13 contractors and Monge Remodeling gave me the most in depth walk through and project scope. He didn't try to cut corners or upcharge me. He was fair and true to his word. We had an old flip house that felt hopeless but now feels like a forever home. He replace beams under my house, replaced my subfloor, Leveled all the floors out in the home and installed vinyl flooring through my ENTIRE home. He did such a great job we hired him for our Countertop and kitchen remodel! He will be our permanent contractor on ALL future projects! So thankful that I found Him!"

"Great hire. Mr. Galvan came, assessed the job and gave me an estimate the same day. Both days of the job he, and his crew, were on time, professional and very easy to work with. Pricing was great and work was completed as agreed upon. The results were excellent. Not only would I hire again, but currently picking paint colors for the next job Mr. Galvan has estimated for us."

"That was all it took! He gave me instructions on filing a claim with our insurance company, met with the adjuster on the roof and it was then established that we indeed had quite a leak around the chimney and that the roof needed to be replaced. I had some contact with the adjuster but the Songy folks did all the work with the insurance company and we were approved for a new roof even with an upgrade to architectural shingles.
Can I tell you how happy I was? The workers came out soon after our deposit was made and put a beautiful roof down as well as spending hours on replacing the chimney flashing.
The house looks great, we have no leaks anywhere and we had only negligible extra expenses for replacing rotten wood under the roof itself.
I am a really satisfied customer and look forward to getting other needed projects done!

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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. 

Wallpaper steamers can be very helpful for removing large sections of wallpaper more easily, but they’re not always a good idea for DIYers. The drywall behind your wallpaper is meant to stay dry, and excessive moisture from improper technique with a wallpaper steamer can leave you with severe wall damage. Drywall also retains moisture, which could result in mold growth over time. It’s best to hire a professional to remove your wallpaper with a steamer to avoid wall damage and related moisture issues.

While you can remove wallpaper yourself, it is a labor-intensive process that risks damaging your walls. Common DIY methods include using a steamer to loosen the adhesive or spraying the paper with a solution of hot water and vinegar or dish soap before scraping. However, steamers can cause irreparable damage if used incorrectly, and the spray-and-scrape method can harm drywall if it gets too wet or you scrape too aggressively. For these reasons, hiring a professional is often the fastest, easiest, and safest option. A pro has the experience and specialized tools to remove wallpaper efficiently without damaging the underlying surface, which saves time and minimizes the prep work needed for your next wall treatment.

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

Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay.
