For the removal of drywall and plaster that covered brick we wanted to expose, it went much the same way. I came over in the middle of this part of the job, and the team were pounding on the wall to remove all the plaster?it was messy work as you can imagine. By the end of the day, it was again totally cleaned up. David and his team took extra care to make the wall look great, including wire brushing it with bleach. It's the highlight of our downstairs now! Throughout the job, he showed a lot of attention to detail, making sound decisions for things I hadn't considered, like where a light-switch should go or how to fill in the missing crown molding. They did a great job and would definitely use them again for a big project!

The tree was showing signs of rot near the base and posed a danger to the house should it fall down. Mr. Bandele carefully examined the tree and assessed its potential for surviving for several years. He advised removing it. I asked him to give me a proposal for its removal which he did. I did my own estimate of what it might cost, and my estimate and his quote agreed very closely. We set a date for the work, but had to move it one day because of the possibility of rain. He and a well equipped crew arrived at about 9:00 am and began work. For this job he decided to act as general contractor and brought in an other firm which had the large and expensive equipment required to do the work. Never the less, he paid close attention to exactly how the work was being carried out and instructed the sub contractor on several matters which he felt were important. The tree was taken down very carefully, a large self powered stump grinder was taken through the garage and down to the tree site with no damage to any plants that lined the walkway. Mr Bandele was very explicit on that "muy importante!". The stump was reduced to small chips and the large roots that protruded above ground level were also chipped out. Except for the chips which we agreed should not be removed but composted on site, all debris was removed from out yard and driveway which was left broom clean. The work was completed by about 4:30 pm, earlier than he estimated. Because of that even though I had signed an agreement on the total cost of the job, he offered to give me a partial refund. Because I expect to use him again in the future, and because his quote was very close to my own estimate, I thanked him but declined to accept his offer."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/dc/washington/new-life-contracting-services%E2%80%8E-reviews-412218.htm"},"position":7},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Junk In The Trunk LLC","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"MD","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Shanan G."},"reviewBody":"I needed to have a couch removed and it was going to have to be cut in half to make that happen.

"We recently used Fame Interiors for painting the exterior trim on the house and interior painting of our family room. Fame did an excellent job on both the interior and exterior work. Ali, the owner of the company, was a pleasure working with him. He didn't cut corners. We were planning on replacing our overhead garage doors, but the paint and putty job that he did on the doors no longer required replacing them. In short, his price and the quality of his work makes him our "go to" painter."

FAQs for wallpaper removal projects in Montgomery Village, MD
Hiring a professional wallpaper remover is almost always worthwhile. Although the work is more expensive due to labor costs, doing it yourself is extremely time-consuming, complicated, and easy to make mistakes and wreak havoc on your walls, regardless of the tools you use. Professional wallpaper removers have the tools and experience to get old wallpaper down quickly and without damaging the walls behind it.
Removing wallpaper can be easy if you have a non-coated wallpaper, but most homeowners have vinyl-coated wallpaper, which is more durable but tears very easily during the removal process. This feature makes it challenging and time-consuming to remove most wallpaper. There are tools to speed up the process, like steamers, but, unfortunately, it’s easy to permanently damage your walls when using them. In most cases, it’s best to hire a professional wallpaper remover to get the job done quickly and without damaging your home.
In most cases, you cannot wallpaper over existing wallpaper. It’s possible to wallpaper over non-coated wallpaper, but vinyl-coated wallpaper is much more prevalent in homes, so you generally shouldn’t put new wallpaper over existing wallpaper. Adding a layer of wallpaper over vinyl-coated paper will lead to poor adhesion, leaving behind bubbles and imperfections in your wall. Plus, wallpapering over vinyl-coated wallpaper can lead to mold growth, which can be hazardous to your health. It’s usually best to hire a local wallpaper removal service to handle the task to avoid these issues.
The average cost to remove wallpaper is around $3 per square foot, but the total depends on the type of wallpaper, how easy it is to remove, and the size of the room. Most homeowners spend around $780per room for wallpaper removal, and prices typically fall between $200 and $2,000. Wallpaper removal is expensive because it tends to be a very time-consuming job, and it can sometimes take a full day or more for the work to complete.
The easiest way to remove wallpaper is to use a steamer. The hot steam will loosen the wallpaper paste and make peeling the wallpaper off in large sheets much easier. Unfortunately, steamers can create irreparable damage on your walls, so it’s not a good idea for DIYers to use steamers to remove wallpaper. Instead, hire a professional wallpaper remover to do the work for you. This method will not only speed up the process, but it will also ensure your walls will remain intact post-wallpapering.
