"They exceeded my expectations! The painting turned out awesome and they went above and beyond. They paint-matched some exterior doors and trim, patched a couple of bad spots in the ceiling (with texture), removed wallpaper, and mudded some walls to even out spots. They do great work! Would recommend and will use again!!!"

"Overall the price seemed fair, but I felt like I had to probe to get important details rather than them being explicitly explained and discussed up front. Some of the questions I had to ask about included 'What type of paint is used?' and 'What will you do with furniture?' While we were upfront about needing to make a decision regarding who to hire, the bid came in a day later than promised (and again, only after I asked a second time for it). I also asked about a 10% coupon that is mentioned on Angie's List and was told it was automatically included, yet there was no itemization for it in the bid. I recognize that I have fairly high expectations when it comes to communication and level of detail provided by companies I hire, so that is something to consider when reading this review. I am sure they would have done a fair job, although I doubt the quality of the paint they use (Pro Mar 200) compared to Duration or Cashmere.

"Tim repaired several items in my home including diagnosing a bathroom leak (that another contractor got wrong), Tim then repaired it, and then he replaced the drywall and painted the affected area to restore it to like new. Tim also fitted a window air unit for me that was not quite the right size and it looks fantastic. He also fixed a broken inner doorknob very quickly and fixed a nagging shower faucet leak. Tim arrived at the agreed upon time, and even called me when he was on his way. I thought the price was very fair and reasonable. Tim is well mannered and left the job areas spotless."

"I was, at fist, generally satisfied other than a tendency of theirs to make decisions for me without consulting me. A decision was made about the location of stairs from the porch without consulting me until after the posts were set in concrete. I would have made another choice but it was a done deal when I saw it. The porch has been a problem. One door was put on opening out only to hit an electric meter. I fixed that myself. Screens blew out of both doors. I fixed those myself and noticed they put screen over two places on each door where they could have secured it but didn't. Screens have been blown out of two wall panels by the wind. I emailed Mr McElroy about the problem and got no response. I fixed the two screens myself but I think I am going to have to re-screen as I can see three other places where the screen has come out. It appears to me they used the least expensive screen they could get and as little as possible. I am also disappointed at the number and size of the gaps between boards all over the porch. Wasps get in every day. One morning there were 9 wasps on the porch. I feel they hurried, cut corners and made arbitrary decisions to save themselves work and/or expense."

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay. 

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.

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.

One of the biggest downsides to peel-and-stick wallpaper is that it doesn't last as long as traditional wallpaper. Its lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the paper, proper wall preparation and application, and the room's conditions. As a general rule, peel-and-stick wallpaper can last for at least five years, but this can vary significantly. Budget products may only last about 3 years, while higher-quality products can stay up for 7 years or more in ideal conditions. Factors that can shorten its lifespan include high humidity (such as in a bathroom), dirty walls, and low-quality paper. If used on flooring, expect it to last only 1 to 3 years unless sealed. However, the shorter lifespan can be seen as a positive, making it a great choice for people who enjoy switching up their interiors more frequently.

If you can already see the texture of the existing wallpaper through the layer of paint, then the texture could also come through the new layer of wallpaper. If that’s the aesthetic you want, then proceed. But if you want a smoother surface, you should either strip off the existing paint and wallpaper or hang a layer of liner paper before proceeding.
