"We had a small job of repairing drywall and touch up painting. Henry finished the work in about 3 hours. He was very careful with protecting the floor with a drop cloth, precise with the repairs/painting, and cleaned up afterwards. We really appreciated his professional work ethic and suggestions for other future projects. We will hire H&M Contractor, LLC again."

"Luis and his team came to my home and we're very professional and quiet, I kept forgetting they were there. They corrected a terrible paint job that myself and a friend did. I will definitely call him back to finish the rest of my home."

"This was a great experience. Mr. Green is prompt, courteous, neat, expert at his job, and efficient. He educated us about the details of a good painting job all along the way. He was friendly and articulate in explaining what he needed to do the work and what we could expect. We will enjoy the newly-painted rooms for years to come."

"Fidel and his crew were prompt, responsive, thoughtful, professional, and kind. Their work was thorough and careful from washing to prepping the surfaces to painting. They were careful with our bushes and shrubs around the front and sides of the house and the back garden. They were meticulous with the pieces they needed to remove and re-attach, e.g. house numbers, shutters, gutters, etc. They got the job done in exactly the period of time estimated. We were very pleased with this complex job!"

"I purchased the "deal" that provided the use of two painters for a day.  Because of the prep work, all of the painting could not be finished in one day.  I then paid for a second day.  But, they were still unable to complete all of the work.  The small toilet area was not painted at all nor were the skylights.  Mike, overall, did an excellent job because he is an excellent painter.  He is also a clean painter in that he cleans up the work area and doesn't leave a big mess at the end of the job.   He has a positive, "can do" professional attitude, along with a desire to please the customer.  I was just disappointed that they were unable to complete the job in a two day time period. So, in order to get the project finished, I will now have to pay for a third day.  Maybe I'm being unreasonable, but I think two painters ought to be able to paint a bathroom and a bedroom in two days. 
I will continue to use Mike and his company for my painting needs because he is a great painter.  But, for future reference, I will get a better understanding of the length of the job and the total cost of the job before beginning.

"Mike and Crystal were very professional from the first phone contact through the completion of the work. They showed up on time, their work was neat and they worked very efficiently. My windows were in pretty bad shape. They really took their time and prepped them very well which showed in the finished product. When asked to redo or touch up anything it was done without question. In the end we received a very good paint job on a timely basis and at a competitive price. I have already recommended Mike's Painting to others in my neighborhood and would use him again for future painting needs.

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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

It can take a professional anywhere between several hours and a full day to remove wallpaper in one room. How long wallpaper removal takes depends on the type of adhesive, the wallpaper’s age, the condition of the walls, and more.

We don’t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That’s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall’s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.

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.

Most jobs take 1-3 days, depending on room size and adhesive strength.
