"I live in an 1840's cape that had door frames with peeling paint and cracked plaster that was crumbling in spots. Spartan Painting transformed the doors, rooms, and ceilings of our bedrooms and hall, and they now look beautiful and fresh. It was all done for a great price, especially considering that he comes back for touch-ups yearly for the next few years!"

Arthur answered my query within a day. Celso was out to look at requirements and prepare a quote with another couple of days.

Ede came in and removed all cabinet doors and drawers and took them to the Bright shop for prep work and spay painting.

Ede and Sam came back with the doors and drawers and worked very hard for 2 days, taping, covering priming sanding  and finishing. The doors and drawers were re-installed and the entire area thoroughly cleaned.

We could not be happier. The guys took off their shoes while in the house, were friendly and could not do enough for us. There was one minor issue that was my fault and they came back within a day and took care of it.

"Said and his assistant did a fantastic job and were able to sand trim and get two coats of pain on everything within 4 hours. I was amazed! They left the room very clean and paint job looks great. Said was professional, knowledgeable and gave me good tips on removing wallpaper and repainting trim throughout my house if we should decided to do it ourselves. I'll likely hire him again over the winter for a few other paint projects we have on our list.

"Let me start off by saying that I would highly recommend ESP Painting to everyone. Edson, was punctual, responsive, professional, gave great advice, and his team did a flawless job and they even finished up a bit earlier than expected!
There were quite a few uneven spots on the walls that ESP had to fix before starting to paint and now that it?s finished I see no evidence of any of the old holes / cracks. I picked the wall colors but for everything else I decided to trust Edson?s professional
opinion and the end result is more than I could have hoped for.
I am very satisfied with the whole experience and would hire ESP again in a second.

"Daddy and Junior Paint is the best around! I have used them on several large and small jobs. They are the only company I call when I need work done. Rodolfo always returns my calls, shows up on time and completes a project on time or early. Every time I have used Rodolfo's services he has gone above and beyond for me. Rodolfo is also very personable and makes you feel comfortable around him and his employees. In our most recent project he drywalled three rooms which included all the walls and ceilings. Removed wallpaper and then skim coated walls. Rodolfo's finishing work with the trim was beautiful! When it came to color suggestion he walked me through the process of picking the perfect color. I will be using Daddy and Junior Paint for years to come."

"Richard and his assistant were very prompt, scheduled the job quickly, arrived on time (early, in fact) and worked lightening-fast to wallpaper three rooms in my home. The quality was excellent, too, and their experience in the field really shows. I would definitely recommend them!"

"It went better than I imagined. I recently had my living room repainted and new lighting installed and when that job was finished I realized I couldn't keep the dated wall to wall carpet that had been in the house for years. I called Mike on a Saturday morning, he called back within 10 minutes and come over that afternoon to give me an estimate and began the work the following Tuesday, when he removed the wall to wall carpet.  He started the sanding the next day. When he gave me the estimate he said it would take three days to do the job and another two to allow the finish to dry completely before I could move the furniture back.  He explained the difference between the water based and oil based polyurethane finishes and that I would need to have thresholds installed at some doorways.  After the old wall to wall was removed he showed me scratches the original carpet installers had left in the hardwood.  He said he would try to get them out, but they were very deep and would most likely show up as "shadow lines" when he was done.  They are minor and I can live with them. He did the job right on time and at the price he gave me.  He always returned calls promptly. He was very honest and upfront with me throughout.  The job went exactly as he said it would.  The floors look fantastic, I'm very happy with the job he did! Now I want to have my three bedroom floors done."

"Bruno and his team painted our large living L-shaped room and hallway, including the walls, ceiling, wood trim, and three doors and the woodwork on our kitchen. They did an amazing job and I couldn’t be happier with the results. They were able to give us a quote the day after I inquired and they began work on it the day after that and finished in two days. My house was built in 1930, so there were imperfections on the walls and a few wholes in the ceiling that they fixed for us. It looks so much better, and I will definitely hire them for more rooms in the future!"

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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. 

To remove pre-pasted wallpaper, you’ll need to wet the wallpaper or steam it to loosen the paste on the back of the wallpaper. Spray the paper with water, then let it soak for 10 to 20 minutes. From there, you should be able to peel off the wallpaper. Then, you may need to follow up with a cleaning solution and a scraper to remove any remaining wallpaper paste on the walls.

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

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.
