"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.

"Orlando and his crew replaced rotten wood, removed rust from metal trip, and prepped and painted the entire house. They came back to fix any areas that weren't finished to my satisfaction. The cost was reasonable and their work was excellent. I highly recommend this company."

"I wasn't expecting an emaculate job, basically a wipe down of furniture and floors. The kitchen and 3 bathrooms none being large were wiped down but that was it. The vacuum did not even appear to be run as there were large pieces of trash still on the floor. I could have written my name in the dust on the furniture. I've cleaned my house a lot and I know with absolute certainty it doesn't take 6 hours to clean the kitchen and 3 small bathrooms. Even if an hour was spent in each room that still leaves 2 hours. I did like the owner, Paula she was friendly and nice but I cannot recommend her business because the service provided was not very good.

"Yaniel's Renovation LLC completed remodeling work, including putting in hardwood floors, installing cabinets, vanities, and doors, and interior painting. Francisco and his team worked to ensure that the home improvements were to my liking and that they were suitable down to the very last detail. They remodeled with an eye towards the future maintenance of my home. Rosa was immensely responsive. I am very pleased with the results."

"They were very prompt in responding to my call, giving an estimate and completing the job. I told them that I thought I had a possible leak in my roof and wanted to have it repaired before the painting started. They assured me that they could look at it and fix it if necessary. They did this and painted very nicely! I would highly recommend Polyzos and am pplanning to use them again in the future.

"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!"

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Because poison ivy and similar plants can cause potentially life-threatening allergic reactions depending on your sensitivity, it's best to hire a professional to remove it. Hiring a local lawn care service or other professional also increases your chances of successful eradication so that you don't have to deal with the issue again several months down the road.

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.

It can take a professional anywhere between several hours and a full day to remove wallpaper in one room. How long wallpaper removal takes depends on the type of adhesive, the wallpaper’s age, the condition of the walls, and more.

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. 

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.
