"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."

"Initial phone call went well.  Steve Schaaf showed up as agreed to look and estimate and said he would send an estimate via email in five days.  Five days came and went.  After I contacted him again, he wrote back and said:
"...thank you for the nice visit last week. We would be doing you a
dis-service by removing your bedroom wall this time of the year . We are
also booked to well after the first of the year . We certainly
understand if you wish to contact someone else, otherwise if you wish to
talk again next spring please give us a call. Our sincere best regards,
Steve/Goodneighbors ."
I can understand if a contractor is too busy to take on new work, but I was a little perturbed that he did not bother to estimate the job.  It gives me the impression that didn't consider it lucrative enough to bother with.

"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

As long as the surface you’re putting the tile on is properly prepped, peel-and-stick backsplashes should stay on and last anywhere from 3 to 5 years. The best way to ensure the tile stays on is to sand down and clean the wall before applying your design.

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.

Wallpaper steamers can be very helpful for removing large sections of wallpaper more easily, but they’re not always a good idea for DIYers. The drywall behind your wallpaper is meant to stay dry, and excessive moisture from improper technique with a wallpaper steamer can leave you with severe wall damage. Drywall also retains moisture, which could result in mold growth over time. It’s best to hire a professional to remove your wallpaper with a steamer to avoid wall damage and related moisture issues.

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.

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it is generally better to remove it first to guarantee a smooth, professional finish. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it may lead to issues if not done correctly.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if it is in excellent condition: smooth, non-textured, clean, and firmly adhered to the wall. Ensure there are no bumps, tears, or peeling areas, and that all corners and seams are securely glued down. You might also consider painting over wallpaper if removing it would damage the underlying wall. Additionally, some wallpapers are specifically designed to be paintable, which can add texture to a room.

However, there are risks. If the wallpaper is textured, damaged, or peeling, these imperfections will show through the new paint. The moisture from the paint can also loosen the wallpaper's adhesive, causing it to bubble and potentially damage the wall. To mitigate these issues, clean the surface thoroughly and use an oil-based primer to help the paint adhere and prevent the old adhesive from bleeding through.
