"Everything was smooth and professional from the estimate to the final walk-through. The area where the work was done had recently installed flooring, and the crew made sure to protect the new floor. The work started promptly as scheduled, and the work area was cleaned up each day. 20 year old wallpaper was removed, and the walls look great."

"We have never been as pleased with any service that has been performed in our home as we are with LS Custom Painting and Carpentry. They arrived on time as scheduled and provided a free estimate, they immediately scheduled the service. They called to confirm and arrived to do the work right on time. Both men worked diligently, only stopping to talk when I visited with them. The painting is superb and they were done earlier than anticipated. They even caulked in our kitchen because Josh noticed it needed to be done. I wish every person we hired to work in our home was as professional and provided such great quality as this company."

"With the unusually wet spring this year, our hearts sank when we heard the dripping of water in our bedroom, kitchen, and living room. We called our roofing company, but they explained the problem was not the roof, but the solar assist panels. So, we checked the phone books for a company to repair them. Imagine our surprise when we discovered in this day of alternative energy we could not find a company willing to come look at the panels, much less discuss our problem. Finally, we called a solarium company, and he said, "We don't do that, but I know a handyman and if he can't fix it, no one can." We put in a call to Al Vitale and he was reluctant at first, but finally after some begging on our part, agreed to look at it in 2 days. Two days later Mr. Vitale and his assistant were there on our roof. Then he came in and asked, Has anyone looked in the attic for where the water is coming in? We felt like 2 pennies waiting for change. No, no one had ever checked the roof. Mr. Vitale climbed up in a wink, did his survey, came down, placed a call to a glass company to order the Plexiglas and gave us the quote. A couple of days later there they were again, handling every detail of the repairs. He called us 2 days ago and said he'd been very busy fixing homes for the summer selling season, but would return to repair the ceilings and repaint them in 2 1/2 weeks. We wish all tradesmen acted so professionally. I almost hate giving his name to this list, but feel everyone should find out why we recommend him without hesitation. Oh, our insurance claim representative was very impressed with the work and also with the reasonable price, so that's not just our opinion. The claim representative took Mr. Vitale's name and number and said he could keep him busy. I hope we'll still be able to call him when we need help again. Oh, no more rain coming in since he fixed it, and we've had lots of rain and hail since."

"Chad painted our 30 year-old+ Morton building and it looks fabulous. The paint had faded and the building was looking pretty tired. Chad power-washed and then repainted using paint that will last for many years. I really appreciated the quality work. The lines between the two colors we chose were tight. Additionally, Chad overcommunicated to ensure we had current status without question--especially given this was such a large job. For example, it was raining one of the days he was scheduled to paint. He called anyway to make sure we knew he would not be there and provide an update on status. Awesome customer focus and experience! Excellent results! Highly recommend!"

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Think hard before deciding to German schmear your home’s exterior brickwork. If you do not like the look, you are pretty much stuck with it, as it is impossible to remove this finish the way you can remove paint. You risk damaging the underlying brick if you have to chisel and acid-wash it away. It will also take a very long time, and remnants of the mortar wash will always remain.

The average cost to remove wallpaper is $790. The final price tag depends on the size of the room and the complexity of the project, and can range from $200 to $2,000. Usually, removing peel-and-stick wallpaper is on the lower end of the cost scale, as it doesn't require special tools to remove.

The pros of wallpaper include its durability and longer lifespan than paint, as well as its versatility. The durability can translate to lower long-term costs for upkeep and replacement, and the versatility means you have more options for customizing rooms in your home. Some downsides include that it’s difficult to remove, it’s not ideal for rooms or areas exposed to high moisture content or sun exposure, and it’s tricky to install. A professional wallpaper hanger can help mitigate these issues, though, by installing it properly and in areas suitable for wallpaper.

In most cases, it is not recommended to wallpaper over existing wallpaper, as the success depends on the type of paper already on the wall. While you might be able to cover non-coated wallpaper, you should never apply new wallpaper over a vinyl-coated one, which is more common. Doing so can lead to poor adhesion, resulting in bubbles, imperfections, and peeling. It can also trap moisture, potentially causing hazardous mold growth between the layers.

Even if the existing wallpaper is suitable, experts recommend applying only one new layer. Adding multiple layers (more than two total) can cause significant adhesion problems, leading to warping and bubbling. For the best results, the recommended approach is to remove the old wallpaper and all paste residue before hanging the new paper. If you are unsure about your wallpaper type, consider consulting a professional.

Limewash can be removed from brick, but the method of removal will depend on how long the limewash has been on the brick. If the limewash has fully dried—which happens after about five days—you’ll need to use a diluted muriatic acid mixture to remove it. If there are multiple coats of limewash, you may need to apply the acid mixture several times to fully remove it from the brick.
