"Would rate very good to excellent. . Personable, professional, punctual. Carpet, furniture, doors, windows and trim well protected before any work was started. Perhaps could have had less drywall damage with wallpaper removal in half of room. Wall surface repaired, primed, prepped for painting including sanding and painted.. ."

"Very neat and professional job.  This was a large job estimated at 2 weeks - essentially the whole 2nd floor of the residence.
Started by taping and covering floor with resin paper, then cloths on top of that.  Everywhere - including closets.
- We went with smooth walls vs. orange peel and Dave's team did a great job of preparing and finishing the plaster & lath walls prior to prime/paint.  They took the time to do it correctly rather than "patch" it.  Large open stairwell had wallpaper that was removed before prep and painting.  They corrected imperfections in closets as well - even cuttting and installing a piece of drywall to the ceiling of one where some of the plaster was too loose to safely repair.
- Ceilings were patched before paint, but having older sand texture paint, were not able to be smoothed as well as walls.
- All baseboard, door & window trim was sanded and primed with all old caulk and built up paint removed at joints.  Most imperfections from older paint was removed before priming over the old latex and covering with oil based.  Same level of detail with the original 5 panel doors. 
Again, this was a large job on an old home.  Compliments to Dave, Lynn and their team.  They were organized, hard working and very polite.  They have the equipment needed to do the job and cleaned up every night before leaving.  The work is professional and will last.

"They removed the popcorn ceiling and painted the ceiling smooth white. They covered walls and major immoveable pieces of furniture and flooring. They cleaned up after themselves, as best they could. Work was done timely. We are pleased with the final result."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Using a fabric softener solution is a popular and low-cost DIY method for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited. While it may work on some types of wallpaper, it is unlikely to be successful on vintage styles, and there is no evidence that it is more effective than other removal methods. There are also several potential downsides: the solution can leave behind a residue that may damage your walls or interfere with the adhesion of new wallpaper. Additionally, this method can create a strong, overpowering aroma that takes a long time to dissipate, making it a poor choice for homeowners sensitive to smells.

Hiring a professional wallpaper remover is almost always worthwhile. Although the work is more expensive due to labor costs, doing it yourself is extremely time-consuming, complicated, and easy to make mistakes and wreak havoc on your walls, regardless of the tools you use. Professional wallpaper removers have the tools and experience to get old wallpaper down quickly and without damaging the walls behind it.

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.

Rubbing alcohol may help dissolve stubborn wallpaper adhesive that remains after removal, but be sure to apply it carefully to prevent damaging your walls. Apply a small amount using a cotton swab or pad, then gently scrape or wipe the adhesive away.

To remove pre-pasted wallpaper, you’ll need to wet the wallpaper or steam it to loosen the paste on the back of the wallpaper. Spray the paper with water, then let it soak for 10 to 20 minutes. From there, you should be able to peel off the wallpaper. Then, you may need to follow up with a cleaning solution and a scraper to remove any remaining wallpaper paste on the walls.
