"Brian was amazing to work with. First of all, I had a scheduling debacle with my wallpaper not being delivered on time and he was SO flexible with his schedule in order to help me out when I needed it. Second, he did an excellent job putting up the wallpaper - brought all of his own supplies and left my house spotless afterwards. The wallpaper is up perfectly without any flaws. Would highly recommend him!"

"We contracted with JAM Home Services (Jeff) to repair and paint walls, ceilings and closets in the living/dining room and 3 bedrooms of our house. We also asked about installing base board where missing/damaged and also installing shoe molding in all rooms (we had just had carpeting removed and hardwood floors refinished), While his was not lowest estimate for the project, we were impressed with his knowledge, suggestions for successful completion and his professionalism. At our request, he suggested several colors that would work with the hardwood floors. We agreed on a start date, which had to be firm, to meet a specific timeline to place our house on the market. A week before start date, he checked in with us to be sure we still on schedule. As it happened, other projects were already completed, so he started a week earlier than planned and completed the project withing the 4 days he had originally estimated. We could not have been more pleased with the result! Each day, the work space was cleared and cleaned, except for drop cloths left to protect floors. He repaired a baseball-sized hole in the wall in one bedroom, repaired a crack in the plaster above a door in the living room, filled all nail holes. The paint on all ceilings, wall and closets was smooth and even - no messy corners or bleeding edges. The new base boards and and shoe molding were such great enhancements to the rooms. We highly recommend JAM Home Services for anyone with home repair or improvement project needs!"

"My experience in working with Mr. Jones and his painting crew was simply superb. My siblings and I needed to sell our family home, but many serious updates were needed before we listed it. Phil was very kind and patient with us when we had to reschedule a time or 2, due to unforeseen circumstances. The 2-story, 2,000 sq. ft. house had not been painted properly for many years, and needed extensive prep work, including the removal of wallpaper, the painting over of dated, dark paneling and and the fixing of a damaged ceiling. The Flawless Painting crew completed all of this work extremely well. Mr. Jones and his crew painted the house, inside and out, and it looks beautiful and brand new! All details were attended to. We listed the house when Phil's crew finished, and had a great offer within a few short days. I have to think that it was the beautiful paint job that sold the home. Flawless Painting Company is indeed Fabulous!"

"Stohl Painting was excellent. Nathan and crew were extremely careful, very detailed oriented , and took much pride in their work. They did extensive prep work to the walls and ceilings of our home which had not been repainted since the orginal construction in 1997. They repaired nail pops, cracks, etc. and smoothed the walls prior to applying paint. They were very thorough in covering floors, furniture, light fixtures, etc.and vacuumed, dusted, etc. after painting was completed. Our home has 19' ceilings in the great room that includes an open staircase. This presented no problem as they were able to safely utilize ladders, etc. and avoided having to assemble scaffolding. I am very pleased with the quality of paint used, it is very washable and looks great. Our deck railing looks outstanding. Nathan chose to use a colored stain over an oil based primer and the color match to our home was exact. We were so pleased with how this deck turned out that we have asked Nathan and crew to return this spring to repair and repaint our entire front porch railing and column system. A job this large will have the occsional missed area or repair that was not noticeable during the day but became visible at night. Stohl Painting immediately corrected any areas that were less than perfect that either we found or they observed when they would inspect the previous day's painting. This was a big job. Nathan had originally estimated seven days of work with a full crew, we added items after they started, the railings were delayed numerous times due to rain, etc, and we then decided to repaint a downstairs stairwell and attached large gameroom, which added another three days. In total, the painting job took almost a month to complete, with at least one person and usually two or three of his crew here daily. But my husband and I could not have possibly done all this painting ourselves without it taking months and we certainly would not have produced the quality finish Stohl Painting provided."

"Mike is wonderful. He  was prompt and very skilled.  He arrived when he said he would, and didn't leave until the job was finished. He saw that the floorboards were a bit scuffed up - he repainted them without our asking him, and without cost to us.  I will use Gabriel Painting for every painting job I need done. Absolutely fabulous."

"Jessica and her team are a wonderful group to work with. If one member of her team is unable to complete the job another member jumps right in and seamlessly completes the job. My husband and I are delighted with the end result of the painting and wallpaper removal.
Jessica's team also removed my old deck and installed a new deck promptly, efficiently, and beautifully! I expected professional and friendly service and not only did I receive it, I feel confident in contracting with them again in the future.
Thanks!!

"Joe and his crew patched and painted the entire interior of our home and did a fantastic job! We live in a different state and after our tenant moved out, we were ready to put our long-rented house on the market. We got a lot of quotes for the work, but ultimately trusted Joe with the job. We appreciated his expert advice that struck the appropriate balance for keeping the job economical for us, but still ensuring that the work was done right for the future owners. He was efficient, trustworthy and great about keeping us posted on his progress. The before and after pictures from our realtor (and 5 offers over list price!) spoke volumes about the quality of work that Joe and his crew do. The house looked amazing when he was finished."

"Nice crew, not precise for interior homes. Required paint removal on many doorknobs and wood trim as well as a trip back to correct errors. Would probably suffice for cottages or outdoor paint projects. Again, very nice crew."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

We don’t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That’s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall’s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.

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

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.

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.

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.
