"Excellent job to Mario and his crew! Mario showed up at the job within 30 minutes of me contacting him. He looked at the job, gave me a quote and started 3 days later. They showed up on time everyday, worked professionally. I spoke with him and his crewman several times and they are very polite, professional and very detailed. There was one small issue and he contacted me right away to let me know about it and how he was going to fix it. The condo was completely finished in 3 days, that included ceilings, trim, closets and walls. Not a paint splatter on any of the carpet or a drip on any of the walls. PERFECTION! I will hire again and highly recommend distinctive painting to anyone. Thank you Mario"

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."

"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!"

"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."

"Creative Painting (Chris Pino) painted the entire exterior of our house (body and trim) and our garage (trim). The highlights of my experience with Chris are: - Our house was transformed from a mess to looking beautiful. - Totally satisfied. - Very reasonable price. - Chris and crew are nice, hard-working people. It was a pleasure having them on site. - Chris is easy to get ahold of on the phone, and responds quickly to emails. He often calls in the evening to report on the day's progress. - Chris did everything he said he'd do, and then some, in a timely manner. - Chris is on site every day, and worked every weekday (weather permitting) until the job was finished. When Chris came out to the house to give an estimate, the one thing that really impressed me was how he quickly went over every square inch of the house explaining what needed to be done, what he would do about it, how he would do this or that to protect the landscaping, where he would put drop cloths to ensure there was no mess left behind, etc. He noticed all sorts of details that I never would have. It quickly because abundantly clear that he knew his stuff down to the smallest detail. It was easy to see the value of dealing with someone with nearly 30 years experience. After he provided the estimate, I peppered him with questions for the next few days. He was very responsive and answered all to my satisfaction, so I was quite comfortable giving him the job. He provided suggestions on colors. We went with his suggestion to paint the doors black, and we LOVE it! He worked with the paint supply shop to duplicate the color we used previously for the body of the house. Our house began as a real mess, as we had put off the painting for a few too many years. The results was that we had LOTS of peeling and bare wood, especially on the south-facing side. Chris and crew spent many hours scraping and priming and making absolutely sure that the surfaces were adequately prepared before applying the finishing coats. Besides painting, two doors were replaced, rotted wood was addressed, some downspouts were replaced, and several other tasks. He even fixed some problems caused by guy who replaced our roof last year. Everything came out great. Chris Pino has the basic work ethic that I think everyone wants (but doesn't get) out of every contractor they hire, namely this: It is AS important or MORE important to Chris than it is to his customer that the job gets done the right way in every detail. I'd hire the guy again in a heartbeat. (Note: the cost of service that I indicated includes the painting and carpentry work done. They also did some minor demolition, waste removal and downspout cleaning for a few hundred more.)"

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

One of the biggest downsides to peel-and-stick wallpaper is that it doesn't last as long as traditional wallpaper. Its lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the paper, proper wall preparation and application, and the room's conditions. As a general rule, peel-and-stick wallpaper can last for at least five years, but this can vary significantly. Budget products may only last about 3 years, while higher-quality products can stay up for 7 years or more in ideal conditions. Factors that can shorten its lifespan include high humidity (such as in a bathroom), dirty walls, and low-quality paper. If used on flooring, expect it to last only 1 to 3 years unless sealed. However, the shorter lifespan can be seen as a positive, making it a great choice for people who enjoy switching up their interiors more frequently.

If you’re installing new wallpaper and have leftover glue, you can remove unused wallpaper paste from the bucket or pan it’s in by letting it dry. If it’s an oil-based paste, seal it in a plastic bag and throw it in the garbage. Otherwise, toss the leftover wallpaper paste in the trash. Although it’s water-soluble, don’t rinse unused wallpaper paste down the sink because it could dry in the pipes and cause a blockage.

Accent walls can feel out of place or distracting if not well designed. Accent walls that don’t fit in with a room’s style can feel jarring or overpowering. Some accent wall styles can also feel dated, but fortunately, it’s easier to update a single wall than an entire room.

Painting over wood paneling is an option that can save you money and time. However, if you go this route, the style and texture of the wood you paint over will still be evident. Painting over paneling is an excellent way to modernize an otherwise outdated aesthetic. Instead of removing wood panels, consider painting them a bright color–like white or ivory. This is essentially wainscoting, but without any of the required installation.
