"The company was referred to my daughter by one of her coworker. Initially my daughter's primary interest was to have her popcorn ceiling scraped and replaced with knock down ceiling. She also wanted painting done in her lower level. After visiting with owners she learned that they had Handyman experience and had very good ideas. she ask if the could remodel her bathroom. They removed the old tile floor in the bathroom, replaced with new tile, removed the old vanity and plumbing and replaced with new. They were very friendly and easy to communicate with. They didn't talk over her head and were very creative with ideas and solutions. May daughter has already agreed to hire them for other "Handyman" projects in her home as will I in my home."

"Michael Kern and his employee's do super great work. A very high ceiling, Wallpaper paste residue on Kitchen walls. This is not a smoke fee home and had not been painted for many years. There was furniture etc. present. Cost did not run over estimate and finished in a very timely manner. I would recommend them to all."

"I was impressed with Jerry's knowledge of the Sherwin-Williams product line, and his ability to visualize my project using the colors I chose, and also recommending small changes to the either the color intensity, or, the color itself to bring to life the vision I had in my head. He's a straight forward contractor and I appreciate his candor in helping me deal with my vision vs. reality. He wants to make sure that he's doing everything in his power to make sure that you're happy with the end result. Workmanship is good, and takes initiative in small repairs require to make the project look good at the end."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

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

You’ll need to wash the walls to remove wallpaper adhesive residue after removal as part of the prep process for painting or rehanging wallpaper. Old adhesive can cause texture issues and prevent paint or wallpaper from adhering properly to the wall’s surface.

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.

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.
