"
     I purchased a 4-plex that  was built about 1949  which over the decades  had  several different shades of  paint  on the trim.  Many years of neglect  resulted in peeling paint, dry rot and warped wood.   On 4 September 2014   Dave & Lynn arrived promptly to give a free estimate.  They did a through inspection of the exterior of the house and  Dave wrote a proposal, which I felt was reasonable  considering the amount of work that was going to be involved.
     Being it was late summer and they were already scheduled into the fall I understood that work would not begin until spring of  2015.  A very wet spring and summer delayed the start of work even longer than either of us had expected.  The last of  July they began by pressure washing the exterior of the house and the deck.   On 4 August  the labor intensive work of  the next  four weeks began.  They started by removing the storm windows.  Followed by scrapping & removing loose paint, sanding,  treating and applying oil base primer to bare wood,  removed old caulking,  re-glazed  the windows and applied caulking to fill holes and gaps in and around thirty-two  double hung window casings and frames.   As I stated before the exterior had been neglected for several years and the  windows frames were in terrible shape  requiring  hours of work  before paint could be applied.   They scrapped, and removed loose paint  from the  fascia, soffits and vents;  followed by  scraping loose paint, sanding  and  priming one of the  six exterior doors.  The other five had been replaced  or had been protected from the weather so did not require much prep.. 
     When the prep was completed  they  painted  32 double hung window casings and frames, 6 exterior doors,  3 awnings over basement windows, fascia and soffits, the exterior basement  and foundation walls.   The project was completed when they put the final coat on the deck and re-hung the storm windows.
      I found Dave, Lynn and their work crew to be polite,  clean,  on time,  quiet steady workers and striving to do a job well.    I now have a house with a new fresh look.

"My kitchen was old and outdated. Joe came and gave me some amazing suggestions based on my budget. He repainted my cabinets and they looked brand new! He removed my old countertops and created a butcher block counter from scratch. He also added tiles to the backsplash area and all the way around the sink and counters as well. Installed a new garbage disposal and replaced the wood under the sink where I had a leak. Then he painted the kitchen walls and the ceiling. He was so professional and went out of his way to make sure I was satisfied. I could not believe the outcome and how much bigger the kitchen looked. I will continue to use him for all my future projects!!"

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Small amounts of wallpaper can be thrown away in your household trash. If you’re removing a whole home’s worth of wallpaper, you may need to contact a waste removal company, rent a dumpster, or schedule a special pick-up with your municipality’s waste removal service. Wallpaper isn’t recyclable, so no matter which method you choose to dispose of it, make sure it doesn’t get mixed in with the recycling.

The average cost to install or hang wallpaper is around $575 per room or project, with typical prices ranging from $200 to $1,500. Costs can be higher for custom or luxury products. Since project size varies, it's often helpful to estimate labor costs per square foot, which generally fall between $1 and $7, with an average of $4 per square foot. The total cost depends on several factors, including the quality and type of wallpaper, the size and type of the room, and whether old wallpaper must be removed first. Opting for less expensive materials like peel-and-stick wallpaper or choosing to do the installation yourself can lower the overall cost. For the most accurate estimate, it is best to have a professional inspect the space and provide a quote.

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.

Professionals handle heavy lifting, proper disposal, and recycling, reducing environmental impact.

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.
