"George's painting, inc was responsive and professional from start to finish. The project entailed wallpaper removal from 2.5 bathrooms and kitchen, repainting those rooms; installing a tile backsplash and vinyl tile floor in the kitchen; replacing the kitchen countertop; repairing a cabinet; repairing drywall and painting the ceiling in the master bedroom. The owner came out to do the estimate himself. He was accommodating when I wanted to expand the scope of the initial project and came out a second time to give me an updated estimate. He was easy to reach via cell or email. The estimate was more than fair. His crew completed the job in three days. The crew was polite, professional, and did a good job cleaning up at the end of each work day. I highly recommend this company and would use them again."

"The company owner was friendly and knowledgeable. He came everyday to review the work. The workers spent long days, were diligent, and did excellent work. They cleaned up and moved all furniture and wall hangings back in place. I was very pleased with the results. It was not cheap, but I believe I received good quality for the price. There was one miscommunication about the scope of the work, which the owner resolved in my favor. I would hire this company again."

"Replaced kitchen cabinets, installed new appliances and quartz countertops with tile backsplash, tore down and rebuilt attached family room, added island to kitchen, replaced flooring with hardwood and upgraded electrical in both rooms, new lighting in family room, refinished wood floors in all downstairs rooms, upgraded electrical service to 200A, ran new circuit to garage. Work began immediately after Thanksgiving and most work completed and appliances installed Dec 23rd just in time for holidays. Work was done quickly, efficiently and professionally, trash constantly removed, foreman was always available and immediately responsive during this time. We were required to purchase new appliances ourselves which they installed, which we preferred. 1/3 payment required upfront, 1/3 when work started and the remainder when work was substantially completed and rooms livable (their definition). The contract allowed 10% of that final payment to be held back until all work listed and priced in the contract was completed. Although that seemed to be a lot to pay before work was completed, I correctly believed they could be trusted to complete the work quickly and properly. When mistakes were made which occasionally happened (e.g. a light wouldn't turn off and the range hood wouldn't vent), they returned immediately to correct the problem. All the contractors and subcontractors were professional, polite and helpful."

"I found out about Competitive Painters from a neighbor who uses them for home improvement projects.  So I contacted them initially about some cabinet work and light electrical work.  Their price was excellent compared to other quotes we received and the finish product was exactly what my wife and I were looking for.  Robert was awesome to work with and was very accesible.  He provided guidance and insight without being pushy.  So when My wife and I purchased a new home and wanted to do some changes to it, of course we called Robert.  He was able to work with us to not be intrusive, his crews kept the work areas clean during the process and we loved the finish product.  I have several additional remodeling projects that I intend to use Competitive Painters again for in the near future."

"John came to give us an estimate and we were a little shocked by the price. This is by no means a cheap service because of the regulations they have to follow. He called us later and lowered his price to keep his crew working and we were very happy for someone that really wanted our business. They were very prompt on the day of the removal. They did everything we asked and left the house in better shape than when they arrived. They even removed some old carpet that was in the way. We were very satisfied with the job they did. The one thing that we were surprised by was the fact they did not take credit cards. We had not budgeted for a cash payment. I hope in the future they are more up front with customers about this. We would use them again.

I contacted Paula to see if she was available to clean my brother's home, I tried to explain the condition which she would encounter on her arrival.  The house was occupied by four handicapped people, and was very poorly maintained.

Paula and her team arrived on time, inspected the house, and created a plan for deep cleaning.  They were respectful to the occupants, professional, and worked extremely hard to deep clean this home.  Four people, and four hours later, the kitchen was sparkling, including base boards, walls, ceilings, cabinet fronts, windows, refrigerator, stove, sinks, and counter surfaces, They were also able to get the laundry room clean, as well as the bathroom and master bedroom.  They will return to complete the living area.

I would highly recommend her and her team.to anyone.

"We got bids from three painters who were highly recommended on Angie's list.  Polyzos Painting was the lowest bid, by far. We moved most of the furniture out of the living room and dining room, and boxed up the china, books and decorative items.  We also took down the drapes, and sent rugs out to be washed. Actually, the painting day was the most relaxing, since we have spent much more time moving, re-hanging drapes, etc. The rugs are expected in a few days, but the living room is greatky improved."

"I totally recommend this guy. Im very happy with my kitchen (he gave me a lot of ideas) and the rooms he painted, they where all different colors and each one of them look awesome. My kids love them.
It all went very smooth, everything went the way we talked about and NO surprises at the end. It went fast just like the way he said it. 
They are punctual and friendly and they left everything CLEAN before they finished. 
Awesome awesome job! I'm glad I went with this company!"

"I said I would use this company again and I did.  They are professional, personable and hard working.  They tried to limit the inconvenience to our family as the whole house was being painted.  The painting involved drywall patchwork, about 7 or 8 room colors and variations of trim/ceiling paint colors to match original colors.  Right before work started, I added on the popcorn ceiling removal and they were able to accommodate that request.  The owner kept me updated on the progress and expectations for the following day at the end of each work day.  Great reliable company and I will continue to use them!"

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on wallpaper type, wall condition, labor, and necessary repairs.

Peel-and-stick wallpaper is designed to be removed without damaging walls, making it a good choice for renters or temporary design changes. However, damage to paint or drywall can occur under certain conditions. To prevent issues, the wall surface must be properly prepared before application—it should be clean, smooth, dry, and correctly primed or painted. Applying wallpaper to a freshly painted surface can cause the paint to peel off during removal. Additionally, removing the wallpaper too quickly or aggressively can also cause damage. For best results, always follow the manufacturer's instructions for both application and removal.

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.

Using a fabric softener solution is a popular and low-cost DIY method for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited. While it may work on some types of wallpaper, it is unlikely to be successful on vintage styles, and there is no evidence that it is more effective than other removal methods. There are also several potential downsides: the solution can leave behind a residue that may damage your walls or interfere with the adhesion of new wallpaper. Additionally, this method can create a strong, overpowering aroma that takes a long time to dissipate, making it a poor choice for homeowners sensitive to smells.

Yes, you can pay someone to strip wallpaper. Before you hang new wallpaper, you should hire a local wallpaper removal service to prep the surface properly. Wallpaper removal pros cost $0.55 to $1.50 per square foot or $500 to $700 per room. Prices vary by room size and removal technique, as some options are more labor-intensive.
