"The entire project was handled in a highly professional and timely manner in November 2021. Jon Anderson, the project estimator/manager, provided excellent project progress information and liaison with the two man work team. Sergio and Juan, professional carpenters and painters, did excellent work, protecting our landscaping and thoroughly cleaning up at the end of each work day. We are extremely pleased with the results- a beautiful job! Thank you, Klappenberger and Son team!"

"I am very, very happy with the work JH painting did in my home. I needed to have the interior of my 4 bedroom rental property painted. Mr. Taurino reached out to me immediately after I submitted my request on Angie’s List. He was very professional and patient with me because I had a lot of questions about the job. Pleasantly to my surprise JH under the supervision of Mr. Taurino did a tremendously job. They moved and covered furniture prepped the walls by patching all the dents and holes. I recommend JH Painting (Mr. Taurino) to anyone looking for a true professional painting contractor. Thank you JH Painting Services. God bless you and your crew."

"Cindy was fantastic! She listened carefully to my ideas and then excellent advice on selection of wallpaper placement, patterns and coordinating paint color. Her technical skills are excellent and she was efficient and tidy. She also is an excellent furniture painter and painted and bedside table and a chair to coordinate with the whole room!"

"360 Painting was great to work with. Lorna (the owner) helped me make color decisions and clearly knew what she was talking about related to trim and contrast. The crew worked efficiently and completed the work after a few days of dedicated time (I had the entire exterior of the house painted, including the trim. There was adequate supervision, and very good value for money. I'll be asking them for another quote in the future when I turn my attention inside. I also like the idea of working with a woman-owned business."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Wallpaper steamers can be very helpful for removing large sections of wallpaper more easily, but they’re not always a good idea for DIYers. The drywall behind your wallpaper is meant to stay dry, and excessive moisture from improper technique with a wallpaper steamer can leave you with severe wall damage. Drywall also retains moisture, which could result in mold growth over time. It’s best to hire a professional to remove your wallpaper with a steamer to avoid wall damage and related moisture issues.

While you can remove wallpaper yourself, it is a labor-intensive process that risks damaging your walls. Common DIY methods include using a steamer to loosen the adhesive or spraying the paper with a solution of hot water and vinegar or dish soap before scraping. However, steamers can cause irreparable damage if used incorrectly, and the spray-and-scrape method can harm drywall if it gets too wet or you scrape too aggressively. For these reasons, hiring a professional is often the fastest, easiest, and safest option. A pro has the experience and specialized tools to remove wallpaper efficiently without damaging the underlying surface, which saves time and minimizes the prep work needed for your next wall treatment.

Limewash can be removed from brick, but the method of removal will depend on how long the limewash has been on the brick. If the limewash has fully dried—which happens after about five days—you’ll need to use a diluted muriatic acid mixture to remove it. If there are multiple coats of limewash, you may need to apply the acid mixture several times to fully remove it from the brick.

You may end up with extra wallpaper once your project is finished. Hang on to that wallpaper, as you may need to use it to patch up areas that get damaged later on. If you have a lot of excess wallpaper, try getting creative with it. You can use it to line the inside of a cabinet or drawers, for example.

Most jobs take 1-3 days, depending on room size and adhesive strength.
