"Sheldon and Son were very flexible with scheulding and two painters arrived promptly at 9am to begin working for the 8 man hours.
The following items were painted in the first 7.5 man hours.
kitchen ceiling ( approximately two 10X10 ft. areas)
Kitchen backsplash behind sink and stove ( 2X2  ft, and 4 X 2ft. section) they also painted the area above the cabinets 1x4 ft. area.
and a  2 inch frame around the patio door.
I was told the reason it was taking so long was because I should have purchased Sherwin Williams Supreme, not the Sherwin Williams HGTV brand and they had to put extra coats on the ceiling.  Please note that at one time I overheard them talking about having to finally throw away the roller brush they were using as it had seen better days. Perhaps it was the worn out roller and not the paint that was partially to blame for the exceedingly long time it took them to paint the kitchen. I'm also sorry that one of the painters had a torn rotator cuff that made painting the ceiling difficult.
I don't like to stand over people while they are working, but the incessant talking and aswering of their cell phones made me walk into the kitchen twice. Both times one of the painters was standing with a paint brush in his hand, just talking to the other.
When they left, I had to finish painting the trim in the kitchen..they forgot to do 2 - 3 foot sections on the floor. I put a second coat behind the stove, as the roller did not completely cover up the old paint. I also had to remove paint spatter from the counter and the microwave
In the last 1/2 hour they did a great job of painting a 2 inch trim around the living dining area that I could not get to and they touched up some spots on the walls.
I have had other painters in who cost both more and less, but none were as slow or as mediocre.
My feeling is YES they can do a good job, but  they did not do a good job nor were they professional in their attitude and time management.

"Mr. Lazo arrived to give me an estimate on the date and time we agreed to. He walked through and observed the house and wrote an estimate on the spot that was for an amount that was exactly what I had estimated the work would cost.
On the morning they were to start work, a large crew arrived on time and began removing the wallpaper. They removed the wallpaper from the entire house in one day! It would have taken us weeks if not months, to complete the job ourselves.
The crew then began the painting process. They put two base coats followed by two coats of paint on all the walls. I could not find any mistakes when they were finished. They cleaned up thoroughly when they were done. I can not say how pleased I am with the professional job they did. I am thoroughly satisfied. Mr. Lazo called me regularly to discuss things I would definitely use this company again.

"This is my 2nd project with Tony, and I absolutely love his ability to grasp my concept ideas and bring them to life. Now I have my accent wall and complementary color in my bedroom. 
Tony, has been very responsive and has worked well with my schedule to get the job done. Tony and his crew work well, and even came back to make touch-ups per my request without any hesitation.  
Thanks for doing  great job, and always helping me with other projects, beyond your scope.

"We started our search by looking on Angiest List. We spoke with three contractors prior to meeting with Mega Kitchen & Bath. Mega had  great reviews and we felt the most comfortable with and we couldn?t be happier with the results.
We met with Ibrahim a few times prior to demo.In these meetings we discussed our likes/ disliked about the kitchen, the location of
the sink, stove and cabinets and what we had hoped to gain from the remodel.
Demo:
We needed a complete kitchen remodel, which included demoing a very outdated cabinets, top, sink and floor and removing previously installed wallpaper. The demo went very well and we felt very comfortable with Leon doing most of the demo.
Remodel :
The remodel process went as smoothly as we could imagine.The only hold up we had was due to delays in appliances , backsplash.  Ibrahim was available to answer questions/concerns throughout every step we definitely valued his opinion
throughout the process. Leon did a great job and was very detail oriented.
Finished :
We love our kitchen and would definitely use Mega Kitchen & again !
(We?ve had two questions since the remodel was finished
(disposal , grout questions).Both of these concerns were addressed immediately within 2 days.

"Jorge was on time for the repair work that was done. I had recessed lighting installed and had a few areas to be patched up and painted. He made the walls look like new! Professional and respectful of the clean up. Will hire again for more work to be done around the house."

"He kept moving from job to job completely everything on my list but wallpaper border in one room. 
I had used Kargman's previously for painting 5 or 6 rooms, and they did a great job on that.  Great prep work, and the job was done in a timely manner over a couple days.

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Many peel-and-stick wallpapers aren’t moisture-resistant, so if you install them in high-humidity rooms, mold can grow behind the wallpaper. It’s best to reserve peel-and-stick wallpaper for bedrooms, living rooms, and other rooms with lower humidity levels. Not only does this minimize the risk of mold growth, but it also keeps the wallpaper from bubbling or peeling.

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.

The average cost to remove wood paneling is $2,800, but total costs may be higher or lower depending on the size of the room, your location, and the amount of prep work required. Once the paneling is gone, you may have additional costs depending on the condition of the wall beneath.

No, you don’t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it’s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We’d also recommend against putting wallpaper over textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly. 

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.
