"I checked them out prior to hiring and got glowing reports. Leo and his crew are experts in their craft. Honest, dependable, friendly, efficient, trustworthy, on time, and did a fabulous job in record time! Nice, nice people! It was a big job in a large home with lots of very difficult wallpaper removal. Perfect wall repair and then great paint job. I am recommending High Rollers to everyone I know in the real estate industry."

"I would without any hesitation, recommend FreshLook Painting for any of your painting needs. We are relatively new to Minnesota, and didn't have a lot of knowledge about local contractors, but we certainly were pleased that we found Ryan and his crew! From start to finish, everything went well. We are super excited about the brand new look to our house, It was transformed from the 1980's to a modern looking home! Ryan knows what he was talking about! He gave some very helpful guidance on the color selection. His advice was spot on, because the color turned out to be exactly what we were envisioning. He also walked around the house with me and offered suggestions on what to paint the main house color (blue-gray) and what to paint the trim color (white) to help accent certain features, or in some cases, disguise other less desirable features. The crew did an incredible job. I'm still amazed how they made some of the window frames look brand new. The crew was friendly and respectful. We have received many compliments and most people can't believe it's the same house. You can't go wrong with Ryan and his crew!"

"Brennan was very responsive and punctual. His painters were able to do the work from the exterior of the house without removing the sashes, so there was no concern about lead paint entering the house. He was able to remove a huge semi-permanent window air conditioning unit for us as well. Near the end of the project I noticed some areas (only visible from inside the house) that could use some extra paint and let Brennan know. He was quick to respond. The paint job is great and holding up nicely."

"Perfection! I would hire Felipe again in a heart beat! He and his crew did a fantastic job! Very professional, on time, and very friendly. I had an outlet in my wall that I didn't want and at the last minute asked them to removed it and repair the wall. Very easy going and accommodating. I had bumpy walls from removing built in cabinets and another painting company said it wasn't fixable and I had to live with it since my house was older. Not Felipe. He said no problem and they did a beautiful job smoothing out the wall. I also had a medallion I wanted to add to my light fixture in my entry that is , I'm not sure, maybe 24 feet high. No one else would tackle this because the chandelier was wide and they couldn't reach where the light attached to the ceiling. Felipe angled two ladders and three guys held on to it so that they could attach the medallion. It looked like a cirque du soleil act but they did it! No task was impossible for these guys! I will definitely use them again in the future."

"Removing the popcorn ceiling is a messy, dusty process. 360 protected all surfaces and then patched up all problem areas prior to applying the knock down finish. It looks great! They cleaned up the space too and did this all in a timely manner. A great value!"

"Everything was done better and faster than I expected! They were very knowledgeable about paints and the process. They even took on a few extra projects I needed painted such as some exterior cement wall and our porch swing. Very kind and professional!"

"We have a large home built in 1900. There were many coats of chipped paint and wallpaper throughout. Dennis Nagel and his crew did a fantastic job stripping wallpaper, sanding the many coats of paint off the woodwork and patching all the large cracks in the ceilings. The finished walls and ceilings are flawless. Dennis recommended paint colors, repainted the entire house and it is transformed and beautiful. They worked long days, during very hot weather, without air conditioning in the house. Dennis has a strong work ethic and takes pride in what he does. He will go that extra mile to do an impeccable job."

Wallpaper Removal questions, 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.

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.

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.

If you’re installing new wallpaper and have leftover glue, you can remove unused wallpaper paste from the bucket or pan it’s in by letting it dry. If it’s an oil-based paste, seal it in a plastic bag and throw it in the garbage. Otherwise, toss the leftover wallpaper paste in the trash. Although it’s water-soluble, don’t rinse unused wallpaper paste down the sink because it could dry in the pipes and cause a blockage.

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.
