"We recently purchased a home whose previous tenants had smoked in the house. We hired Dâ s Home and Move as we had heard through friends that they did great work. The guys who showed up were professional and extremely helpful. Initially we only hired them for ceilings and had another plan for the walls, but they were able to make the entire house look brand new and at a cost that couldnâ t be beat. Overly happy with the results of our new home and will absolutely be referring others and using their services again."

"Working with Matt was great! He kept me informed on all aspects of the job. The job was completed and he even came back to check his employees work to make sure I was happy. I thought that was wonderful. Takes pride and I like that. I will definitely use him again."

"I cannot recommend Franklyn and his team highly enough. We hired DNF to paint our home’s exterior including gutters, shutters and downspouts. They also painted our dining room trim being extra careful not to damage a custom wallpaper they were working above and below. It wasn’t an easy project and they did a beautiful job. Franklyn came out to view the house and provided a quote within 12 hours of me reaching out. His price was fair and fell right in the middle of the four quotes I received. He let me know they could start in about two weeks and was very communicative over text and email leading up to starting the job. I think the best thing about DNF is they are a family business. The entire team takes a lot of pride in what they do and clearly are used to working together. They had a very efficient process, moving quickly and carefully through their work and cleaning up at the end of each day. I’m an architect and can be very particular. Franklyn was very receptive and accommodating when I asked for some additional prep work or touch ups. He clearly wanted us to be happy with the work. Our house looks phenomenal and we had a great experience working with DNF. Do not hesitate to hire them for your painting needs!"

"Last year we hired Empire to paint our three-story Victorian home. Bruno and his competent helpers did an excellent job. The Old Lady looks spectacular. Their attention to detail, their cleanliness and, most important, their good nature made working with them a pleasure. We hired them this year to fix/paint three ceilings that have the original 150 year old plaster, which they did impeccably and with ease. Next up is painting our garage this spring. We have nothing but good things to say about this company and its crew."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

If you can already see the texture of the existing wallpaper through the layer of paint, then the texture could also come through the new layer of wallpaper. If that’s the aesthetic you want, then proceed. But if you want a smoother surface, you should either strip off the existing paint and wallpaper or hang a layer of liner paper before proceeding.

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.

Stubborn adhesives, multiple layers, and drywall damage can complicate removal.

Rubbing alcohol may help dissolve stubborn wallpaper adhesive that remains after removal, but be sure to apply it carefully to prevent damaging your walls. Apply a small amount using a cotton swab or pad, then gently scrape or wipe the adhesive away.
